If true, seems to target the playing group as much as the fans.

From BF:

Quote:
Opposition fans will have to think a little longer before having a go at this slogan.

Shouldn’t take them long though.


Perhaps they'd say that no one would want to get on board anyway.

BTW, would Hyundai be happy with this? :wink:

No passengers...hmm, would that imply an 'individual' attitude to the team? Everyone goes at it alone? Sakc Ratts! :hitcomputer:

I'd be amazed if that was our slogan. IMO it's crap.
Personally, I've liked our last couple of efforts. Optimistic and a bit controversial.

"they know were coming" was superb. people still talk about it.

"they can smell what we are cooking" was crap

no passengers, is alright, but nothing special.

I was at Visy Park late August and was given a tour of the facilities. There was a board meeting on that night and as we walked past the boardroom I took a quick glimpse inside and and saw the 'No Passengers' slogan on one of TV, assumed it was being put to the board that night.

I wasn't going to say anything but since someone already has...

Also Sticks used the 'no passengers' term in his speech at the b&f so I had a fair idea it would go ahead when I read that.

Hmmm... It's hard to get on board if you're not a passenger...

It begs the question...

Who is the biggest passenger?

No, that one's no good. North Adelaide already tried it back in 1989. It didn't go too well. :thumbsup:

One of the best songs of all time imho.

If this is the slogan, don't mind it all.

I like 'That Was Essendon*'

seriously though, no passengers implies that we used to have passengers?

No Passengers?
Well this is brilliant news. :smile:
Ican't wait for the season to start.
I've always fancied myself in the ruck.
Yup...I'll start training so I can help the team out.
No more sitting at the game watching.
Nope no way.
I'm doin' it for the team from now on. :thumbsup:
