    I was there that day, and I brought may Essendon flag that day. Essendon played some great football during the finals but got the nerves in the GF againts Hawthorn which was hard to watch. But Essendon were very unlucky in the early 80's with the final 5 as it was back then. As they finished with 16 wins during the home and away season and still had to play in the Elimination Finals in 1981 & 1982 which has never happened to a team in any other year with the final five system, as 16 wins had always gauranteed a the double chance. Then in 1983 Essendon had won 15 games but yet had to go through the Elimination Final again. Though the team that had finished top of the ladder that year North Melbourne only had 16 wins. Not fair as I shed a few tears thinking about, just kidding lol as been a long time now, but am sure I did back then. But Essendon missed that champion player Neale Daniher as he would have made a difference. He is one of the most unluckiest players to play the game considering he had constant Knee problems and surguries and missed many years of football because of it.
