""We think the commercial has come up really well and I want to thank those people who took part in the production on behalf of the club,"" Essendon Football Club communications manager Simon Matthews said. ""Essendon has a very passionate and loyal supporter base. This commercial is about getting fans to the game and we thought the best way to send that message was by getting the fans themselves involved with the making of it.""
Essendon ruckman David Hille faces an anxious wait over the next 48 hours after being reported for charging in today's Bendigo Bombers clash with Williamstown. Hille's report compounded a disappointing day for Bendigo after it went down to Williamstown by five points. Callum Beasy had a chance to draw the match with a set shot from 35m as the siren sounded but he could only manage a point.
