The Red & Black Project#1001 Justin BlumfieldRaised in Canberra, Justin Blumfield was one of a number of exciting and talented recruits who arrived at Essendon during the mid-late 1990s and helped steer the club to the 2000 premiership, the Bombers' most recent Grand Final triumph. Possessing a good leap and a deep tank which allowed him to run all day, Blumfield - Bomber number 1001 - was a versatile player whom coach Kevin Sheedy used in various positions across the field.

The Red & Black ProjectKevin AndrewsYou may not recognise him in the street, but you certainly know his work and have likely sung his song on many an occasion. Kevin Andrews is the man who penned the most famous of songs, the Essendon theme song (he even sings it for me in this episode!). Having been forced to endure a troubled and nomadic childhood, Andrews came under the influence of Bombers Hugh Mitchell and Jeff Gamble, and it was at Gamble's parents' home - 13 Grandview Road, Niddrie - where the famous song was penned on a notepad in the late-1950s.His connection...2024-09-031h 09

The Red & Black Project#804 Russell EllenA product of Essendon's fruitful Wimmera recruiting zone during the 1970s, Russell Ellen played 35 games for the Bombers (1973-77). His time at Windy Hill coincided with the careers of champion ruckman, Graham Moss, and an emerging Simon Madden, meaning Ellen, a tall, lanky ruckman himself, was in and out of the senior team. He went on to play 108 games at West Perth in Western Australia, before a successful business career took him to all corners of the globe.
