A SPECIAL PIECE OF ESSENDON HISTORY
Last weekend a record 106-years in the making was created – Matthew Lloyd became the greatest goal-kicker in the history of this club. Lloyd notched his 576th goal to take him past the previous record set by club legend Simon Madden. Essendon has produced two spectacular pieces of limited-edition memorabilia to commemorate the occasion. As promoted on the Footy Show last night, the first piece is framed guernsey signed by both Madden and Lloyd and accompanied by some magnificent photographs.

There have only been 100 of these items produced. The frame size is 130cm x 100cm. This piece comes complete with A-Tag security and an AFL certificate of authenticity. It is selling for just $1195. These items are moving quickly and anyone wanting to ensure they don't miss out on a piece of history should order on-line.
A framed record-breakers photo collected has also been produced. Again this comes with A-Tag security and a certificate of authenticity. The frame size is 80cm x 40cm. Personally signed by Matthew Lloyd, this piece captures in photos the moment Lloyd went past Simon Madden's record.
A framed record breakers collection is also available. Again this comes with A-tag security and a certificate of authenticity retails for $395. This piece is limited to just 100.
Occasionally football teams have those days where nothing goes right. Where they just don’t give a yelp and are seemingly helpless to turn things around. There was a prime example of such a day in Round 3, 1999 when Essendon managed just three goals against the West Coast Eagles. And in terms of disastrous performances, Essendon’s Round 7 loss to Richmond this season ranks right up there. This weekend provides them with the chance to set the record straight.
