Club skipper Dyson Heppell has called on all Essendon fans to rise up for the Mighty Bombers and turn Marvel Stadium into a fortress against St Kilda on Saturday.
The first home game of the year will be vitally important as the Dons look to bounce back to their best and the passionate red and black supporters can all play their part this week.
Fans are encouraged to bring their scarves along and throw their support behind the side in the countdown to the first bounce at 4:35pm.
You can also all help create an electrifying atmosphere in the stands by grabbing your special thunder sticks at any entry gate on level one.
Demand for tickets to the match is high, so flexi members are encouraged to upgrade to a reserved seat through ticketmaster.com.au as general admission access cannot be guaranteed for the exciting game.
The Bombers need your support, so fire up with them on Saturday and show the league what the red and black army is made of.
See the video above for Heppell’s message to the fans.
