About Essendon Football Club

The Essendon Football Club, nicknamed the Bombers or colloquially the Dons, is a professional Australian rules football club that plays in the Australian Football League (AFL), the game's premier competition. Formed by the McCracken family in their Ascot Vale home in 1872, the club played its first recorded game in 1873. From 1878 until 1896, the club played in the Victorian Football Association (VFA), where it won four consecutive premierships between 1891 and 1894. In 1896, Essendon joined seven other clubs to form the breakaway Victorian Football League, winning the inaugural VFL premiership in 1897. Headquartered at Windy Hill from 1922 to 2013, the club moved to The Hangar in late 2013. The club currently shares its home games between Docklands Stadium and the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Andrew McGrath serves as the club captain as of 2026.
