Heading into one of the biggest games of the season, the ANZAC day clash against Collingwood, Essendon currently has two wins and two losses against its name.
 
The season is still full of hope with the 2009 ‘Baby Bombers’ continually improving, key players set to return mid-season and other youngsters showing good form in the VFL.

This week we ask how many wins you think the Bombers will have at the end of the 2009 home and away season?

In last week’s poll we asked if the Bomber’s Round 3 win against Carlton was the ‘best’ win in the past five years, 75.31% of the fans said 'yes' and 24.69% voted 'no'.

Here’s what some of the fans had to say:

Joseph Attard from Taylors Hill says: Couldn't be more satisfying beating the Blues after they were over-hyped to death, literally!

Ashley Robertson from Australia says: It was the best win ever!

Andrew from Altona Meadows says: It depends on what you define as 'best'. I think considering the young squad, injured key players and with Lloydy under scrutiny from the media; this win was probably the best in recent years. There's been plenty of memorable and close games in recent years, but against a cocky and undefeated Carlton, does it get any better? No sir!

Paul S from Sydney, NSW says: Sorry but the one point win over the Eagles at Docklands in 2007 has to be the best in the last 5 years. We were gone for all money at quarter time in that game against far classier opposition. Vintage Hird, Hille and Fletcher. I kept the ticket as it was the all time come back!

Dennis Green from Bayswater, VIC says: The game against the Eagles where Hirdy hugged the fan after kicking the winning goal is a fantastic memory. However, this victory over Carlton is possibly more significant in terms of the many young players who showed the first inkling, as a team, that the Bombers are moving in the right direction. This win was a major statement from a team & club on the rise!

Stephen McAteer from Niddrie says: For me it's the win over Collingwood in 2006. I was driving during the game (delivering pizzas) and listening on the radio. When the final siren went, I dead-set nearly crashed the car. In a year with only 3 wins, that was something special.

Jeremy Chau from Victoria says: That win was a great one however I believe James Hird scoring a blinder against West Coast in 2004 Round 3 was much better as he was under so much pressure!

Luke from Altona Meadows says: Definately the best win for sometime. I was at the game, I honestly thought I’d be leaving at half time the way we started (not a sore loser, just hate carlton) but the boys were fantastic. Once the running game got going and with Lloyd taking some great strong grabs, Watson getting lots of hard balls- we pressured them like I haven’t seen for a long time. The boys really wanted that game, it really showed with the celebrations afterwards.

Valerie Loweth from Keilor says: It was a fantastic win against Carlton and it was so good to see our captain back in his true form again. I think we are starting to see the building of a future premiership team so long as we can stay relatively injury free. Well done to all the team- you did us proud!!!!

Maranatha from Ferntree Gully, Melbourne, Vic says: Certainly the best win in five years, particularly as we've experienced some lean times after 2004 - the team's last finals appearance. Hopefully things will improve now moving forwards. Also, the win over the Blues was a good start and a momentum-builder after the Freo win and things can only get better from here.

Dean Walton from Warrandyte says: Sad that beating Carlton by a few points is the best win in 5 years. Anzac Day clashes are the most important outside Finals - every other win is just good. What about the West coast game at Telstra dome when Hirdy turned it on and hugged the dude in the stand - that is my most memorable non important win. Next Lloydy will be celebrating getting the best car park next to the lift at Etihad!
