Dear Essendon supporters,

It’s great to be back home in the red and black - I have been overwhelmed by the response of the Essendon family and am inspired to do everything I can to make you proud to Don the Sash.

WHY I CAME BACK TO ESSENDON

In all honesty, I was very happy in Sydney and it was a difficult decision to come back to Essendon. But I have made a choice to come back and help the Club through this challenging period. It is important we all stand our ground under adversity and support the Club we love. Regardless of what happens in the next few weeks, we are in the trenches and we must stand together because there is no tougher time at Essendon than right now. That is why I came back.

I can promise we are going to have a lot of fun over the next few years - We are going to make people proud to Don the Sash. I believe in everyone at the Essendon Football Club and have enormous faith in the direction we’re heading. One concept I’m very passionate about is having a game dedicated to our Farmers. We’re currently working through the details of the match, including seeking partners to help us create this opportunity and give something back to the people who are the soul of our nation. 

STAND SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH ME

In all my time in football, I know that Essendon has the most loyal and passionate supporters across the country and we need you to become a member for the 2015 season. This is a great Club. I’m proud of our history and proud to be a part of the future. Contact our Membership Team by phone, 1300 46 26 62, or email, membership@essendonfc.com.au, so you can be part of our fabric today.

Go Bombers!
