Just booked a cab to pick me up and bring me in later today.........not driving tonight planning on celebrating the awesome announcements or drowning my sorrows at the bad ones, either way I'm not going to be very good at work tomorrow.
I picked the wrong year to give up drinking...
Dear Blitzers going to the Crichton,
Regardless of announcements, rumours, innuendo, actual events, please cheer all Essendon personnel as enthusiastically as it is within your little selves to do.
It is clear that the media want to turn this into a Bomber vs Hird debate, and it is about the only thing that will divide us. On this our night of nights, we should not let this happen.
So regardless of your feelings / emotions / knowledge / wisdom / drunken state, please stand together and applaud all and sundry. Knowing full well that you can wander back in here afterwards and tell us what you really think.
It'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Love Samwoods.
Totes jelly I can't be there. Have fun those going!
For those watching(for those that cannot watch either) can you please throw some updates our way. Thanks in advance :)
Historic night. One way or another. Will be watching intently.
Hope Blitz survives
No hope. Nor the live stream. Should have televised it. Ratings!
For the blitzers here attending tonight
if they announce it at the B & F make your feelings known
GET LOUD - BOO IF YOU HAVE TO. WE WONT STAND FOR THIS ****
Hope Blitz survives
Enter reimo.

None of this media fueled crap for me. This just want more clicks.
I beg the rest of you not to over react until something concrete comes from the CLUB.
Its funny, all this hird told not to attend business, if he does attend its hird making it about himself.

******* joke.
If true, it is a disgrace. Perhaps some Blitzers in attendance can confirm his presence/absence. lf he isn't there, then the question should be asked why not. Jobe does a Q & A segment, and while it wouldn't be the most appropriate context in which to ask that question, the need to ask it is greater than any potential breach of protocol.
Stuff is going down. Expect more than one announcement tonight.
BLITZERS FINNDDDDD HIRDDDDY
