    What would you do if we made the Grand Final?

    Myself: I'd probably try my best to get a ticket and if that didn't work then I'd probably just be watching it at home and then if we win go to where our post match celebrations are.

    Eastie, maybe we should concentrate on fewer and longer threads than many similar smaller threads. Love your passion, and you know it. But... What do you think about this?

      I think BT is right. This could easily be a follow on question in one of the other Grand Final threads. Maybe ask this question on one of those threads and delete this one?
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        I'm happy with that maybe we could transfer this to the Grand Final thread I started on the AFL talk board.

          I have a dossier prepared titled Operation: Tramboat.

          Basically El Scraggo is going to host a Grand Final Breakfast Cruise, sailing on the Tramboat from down near the Footscray Community Arts Centre to Federation Wharf. The Tramboat will have the no. 82 Footscray sign up. A bit of a feed and some lubrication to get the faithful boisterous. We'd try to get a Footscray favourite to give a key note address. My preference would be Nigel Kellet. Rob Fairbairn and the Hyde St Band would provide live entertainment.

          Once we pull up in the city, we'd be gathering a pack at Fed Sq and whipping everyone into a frenzy before we march en masse to the 'G. Make a real spectacle of it.

                    I would be excited but nervous as hell and want the game over as soon as possible to know the result and get my emotions out of the way if we lost , but if we won the replay would be on 24/7 for a week and I would subscribe to foxtel. Also be asking all other clubs supporters the last time that won a flag :-)
                    And Essendon fans would cop it the most, knowing they have absolutely nothing to hang their hat on in the last ten years.
                    Oh except a dubious brownlow medal.

                      It's a good word, dubious.


                      This is gonna be fun.

                          Do anything, pay anything for a ticket. Then take the week following off work. Will be a massive one.

                          Hopefully we get up

                            I don't think we will ever need to worry. The AFL continues to disadvantage the Bulldogs and that was shown again today with the compensation Melbourne received in comparison to the Higgins compensation.
