Etihad Stadium saw a crowd over 43,000 for Essendon’s win over Adelaide tonight, with most of them Bombers fans.

Amongst that group was Essendon’s own League of Legends Esports team, who had come out to watch the Bombers.

The Esports team might have been just the inspiration the Dons needed as they came back from a 20 point three-quarter time margin to record a 14.15 (99) to 12.15 (87) win after a spirited comeback.
