	Bendigo Bombers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bendigo Bombers are an Australian rules football club based in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia playing in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
		In 2003, the club formed an alliance with the Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League which results in fielding its reserves players and gaining a supporter base in the large regional city.
		The Diggers moniker was changed to Bombers in the same year to reflect the moniker of the Essendon AFL club.

		The late Bendigo historian Frank Cusack wrote that the grandstand was a striking expression, in bricks and mortar, of the egalitarianism that animated Australian politics around the time of Federation.
		This season, the main visitors to Bendigo's sporting showpiece have been VFL teams taking on the Bendigo Bombers, which is the club formed by the alliance between Essendon and the Bendigo Diggers.
		Bendigo footballers have been dragging their feet from the centre wicket for two decades; the Essendon boys were thought to be spoilt.

	Print Article: Knights aims to put buzz into Bendigo's Bombers
		Yet the club is still struggling to form a Bendigo identity, with locals reluctant to see it as their own VFL club and not just the Essendon reserves.
		"Bendigo Bombers have got a full board, CEO Paul Barnard is based in Bendigo, the head coach, myself, is based in Bendigo, so we're really growing the football club," Knights said.
		The Bendigo Bombers have already produced two AFL players, with Nathan Lovett-Murray and Guy Campbell rookie-listed by Essendon and Sydney in the past two years.

	Bendigo Bombers
		Formed in order to give the football hotbed of Bendigo a presence in the VFL, the Diggers, as they were known initially, first entered that competition in 1998.
		The first glimmer of light came in 2004 when, under the coaching of Peter Banfield, the Bombers reached the finals series for the first time.
		In 2005, with former Richmond champion Matthew Knights at the helm, there was substantial improvement as the side went within one game of the grand final.

	Bendigo FL : Eligibility rule ruckus re Bendigo Bombers - www.ezboard.com
		It was revealed yesterday the league's city and country clubs were at loggerheads over the eligibility requirements of Bendigo Bomber players for BFL finals.
		Earlier this week the BFL board recommended any Bomber player who competed in 10 or more VFL fixtures for the 2003 season would be ruled ineligible for Bendigo finals.
		The amendment is aimed at protecting the integrity of the Bendigo competition, and ensuring the premiership is decided by players who spend a majority of the year in the Bendigo Football League.

		The Tassie Devils gave their all but were simply outclassed by a more talented Essendon-aligned Bendigo Bombers outfit, going down by 36 points in their VFL clash at Aurora Stadium last night.
		Bendigo used its advantage in height and strength on its forward line in the opening quarter with four individual goal-kickers in Angus Monfries, Kain Robins, Callan Beasey and Sam Barnes.
		But the premiership quarter was all Bendigo as the more skilful Bombers steadied booting six goals to one to take control of the contest.

		Bendigo jumped the TEAC Borough in the second quarter kicking the first five goals to give them a 22 point lead half way through the second quarter until Anthony Aloi, who had just come on to the ground, kicked a goal for the Borough, to steady the side.
		The last quarter was one of desperation and hunger with the Borough and the Bombers going goal for goal with Shane Clayton kicking the first for the Borough to put them in front.
		But for the disappointing Borough that's where it ended, the Borough's had the Bombers backs to the wall but the hunger of the Bombers by far outweighed the hnuger of the Borough.

		Meanwhile, on Sunday at Teac Oval, Sandringham withstood a first quarter onslaught by a rampant Bendigo Bombers outfit, to inch their way back into the game in the second term, and eventually take control of the game with a convincing 39 point win.
		With the aid of a strong four goal breeze, the Bombers blasted five goals to one in the first stanza, including a pearler from the boundary by Bomber skipper Nick Carter.
		At the quarter time huddle, Bomber coach Mathew Knights urged his team to bounce and carry the ball forward into the breeze, saying; âThis is where we set it up, this is where six months of hard work comes into it.

		BENDIGO Bombers assistant coach Greg Cox believes last week's drubbing against a star-studded Williamstown may have been a blessing in disguise.
		Eleven Bendigo players have been selected for the practice match, a number which Cox estimates will be reduce by at least two or three come the season-opener.
		``Competition for spots is going to be tough, there's no hiding that, and Sunday is another chance for the Bendigo boys to press their claims for a spot.'' Cox said several lesser lights had taken giant steps this pre-season towards becoming consistent VFL players.

		"It's a big job, because the Bendigo Bombers being in the VFL - which is rated the second best competition in Australia - we have to be competitive, we have to be efficient, both off the field and on the field, and it's important how we set the structures up.

	Sandringham Zebras
		When Bomber skipper and former Demon Nick Carter won the toss before the game, he had no hesitation in kicking towards the City Road end of TEAC Oval which was favoured by a strong northerly blowing more or less straight down the ground.
		By keeping the Bombers scoreless in the last ten minutes of the first term, the backline headed by Andy Biddlecombe, skipper Chad Liddell, Matthew Warnock at full back and Matt Gadsden doing a sterling tagging job on Bomber danger man Angus Monfries laid the groundwork for their team's revival in the second quarter and beyond.
		Bendigo showed no sign of snapping and looked to have the goods by adding to the lead until the Zebra midfield, led by Sean O'Keeffe and Simon Godfrey, dug deep into their reserves of energy and determination to take the initiative and the gap narrowed.

		The last quarter was mostly a case of going through the motions and although Bendigo battled the game out to the bitter end, the Bullants went on to record a 73 point win, the resultant percentage boost pushing the club into the eight despite having played one game less than most of the opposition.
		Despite handing out a thrashing to the Bendigo Bombers earlier in the year, the Bullants went into this game as underdogs given the long run of losses and improved form from the Bombers side that sees them with a chance of a finals berth.
		Bendigo kept up the pressure to add nine goals for the quarter, leaving them with a handy but not insurmountable lead of 27 points at the last break.

		After resigning unexpectedly last month as coach of the Port Adelaide Magpies with a year to run on his contract, Knights was high on the list of the potential coaches for Bendigo, according to the club's general manager, former Essendon tough nut Paul Barnard.
		The Bombers finished eighth in the VFL, making the finals for the first time only to lose to Tasmania in the elimination final, and will look to develop young players as opposed to bringing in more senior personnel.

		But after a series of losses and one disastrous draw, it seems the Bendigo Bombers still have much work to do.
		After finally tasting the winning feeling in round one, perhaps the Bombers started to think too far ahead and let their pressure drop.
