Since the Bombers won a final 

Has there ever been such a fall from grace? The best team in the league to a laughing stock. And they say the Demons culture is no good? Culture and arrogance killed and are continuing to kill this horrible club

Heres to another 20!

    It is written in the stars, after all we lost to the replacements.

    There's another 'streaky' thread might suit this better, Red.

    Although, thankfully, we haven't had to see it for a while, its raison d'être having been progressively and greatly reduced in these recent successful years.

    I remember that Final when they beat us.  We were coming back strongly near the end, less than a goal behind, when Brad Miller gave them a downfield free , leading to the sealer for them.

    Although we lost, this was one of the most electric finals I can remember us playing. When Wrecker Whelan laid that bump (when you could do it) on Hird which lead to Johnstone's running goal at the city end the adrenaline cranked up to 11.

    Pretty sure the 21st is guaranteed even if they make finals next year.

    I'm always uncomfortable slagging off other teams, considering the doldrums we have been in for lengthy periods of time.

    It's probably useful to consider that Individuals within regimes come and go, and the entire edifice of Essendon, particularly post substance use has been reworked from the inside.

    Carry on though... 😎

    It wouldn't be half as much fun if it wasn't for the media pumping them up and inventing new catchphrases for them every single year.

    Maintains the social licence to continue mocking them.

    Appreciate the alternate opinion Mr. Onion.

    However, considering the decades of abuse we’ve copped from bombers fans I think they deserve a bit back. 😊

    Trudat. But their fans were, still are, and always will be the most repugnant, obnoxious uncultured swine. That never changes.

    NEVER FORGET how awful their fans are.  Long may they suffer.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
