I'm there next Sunday !
Yes, it was bloody awful watching that first half yesterday. Losing to that mob twice in one season is a bitter pill to swallow. However, one of the greatest players of any era, will be playing in his final game at Docklands this Sunday. I don't know about anyone else, but I'll be damned if I'm going to let one lousy result, within a disappointing season, prevent me from attending this game and paying my respects to a champion of our club.
St Kilda forever ( God help me)

Win lose or draw its good to see champion players getting the send off they deserve.

I'll be there also.
It's not really a send off for Roo, that's the following week at the G.
Yes it's his final game at the aging Etihad, but surely Saints fans can turn up against Richmond for the really big game.
Would be different if our final H&A game was interstate and supporters couldn't travel.
Be wary of dynamic pricing for the MCG match and buy tickets now before prices rise too high.

Wouldn't be anywhere else but surrounded by the RW&B faithful on the Moorabbin wing, and in the Saints bay at the G the week after.
Getting ready to order my Thanks Rooey gear as well.
If you are able to get there and you aren't planning to go, have a re-think!

Re: I'm there next Sunday !
I'll be there too. I am looking forward to it. There is always a great feeling of expectation swiping the member's ticket at the Etihad entrance , heading up to the top level and settling in to watch the game. Sometimes the next few hours are torture, but some times they are so sweet.
In many threads on this website, we have reminisced about great games of the past. Who knows... maybe this will be one of them, and I will not be missing it.
And on top of all that, as others have said , this is a chance to say thanks to an all-time great of our club.
Be there!

Re: I'm there next Sunday !
Myself and the family are definitely going to be there for the next two games - players like Riewoldt don't come along too often. Hopefully win both of them. Win both and we've won 12 for the season.
Your friendly neighbourhood samurai.

Re: I'm there next Sunday !
Of course, I will be in attendance. Haven't missed one game in Melbourne this year. Virtually all have been at Jihad Stadium. Would be nice to get more of a change of scenery next year.

Re: I'm there next Sunday !
We were hoping to come over but jen is a bit crook atm...new medication isnt going well. We will be there in spirit though. We were there when Burkey and Loewey retired and drove over for Milney, Kosi and Blakeys farewell v Freo. Saints send there players off in style and do it better than anyother club i reckon. Good Luck on your journey Rooey and THANKYOU for being a LIFETIME SAINTER

Well said Noddy04! You're a good man! Absolute pleasure to spend time with you at Adelaide Oval.
