The game WILL be shown at Moorabbin

In the good old days we always had interstate games on the big screen(s) at Moorabbin.

This seems to have fallen away with the rise of Foxtel and the decay of Moorabbin.

But next Saturday is a GF.
Surely the new Board can organise something.
Some big screens.
An operating bar.
Some food.
Big crowd.
Big revenue.
Chance for fans to congregate in one place.
Generate some real team spirit.

Come on Westaway.
Organise something !!!!!!
NOW

Please let us know what response you get.

it would be the best place to have it, so much memories & if we actually won it would be amazing!

perhaps we could all ring- email and then they would know of the interest.

pity there's not a motel close by- accomodation included for a saintly weekend.

Game is live on Channel 10 so theres NO reason why the Social Club cant be open

Would be there for sure..gotta drown out that feral Crow crowd and Ch 10 commentators

esaint66 · Post: # 526154Post **esaint66** » Sun 02 Mar 2008 9:46pm

btw is this going to be open for any saints fan if this goes underway?

or just social club member sor something like that?

i'll ask the club if there doing anything when i go in tommorow to get my scarfe.
was originally planning on getting it at the final (was expecting the hawks to win

)

saintspremiers · Sun 02 Mar 2008 9:50pm

Yep, I'd prob go to the Social Club also.

It's our biggest practice match since 2004!

Perleese don't buy the AFL agenda and call it a "Grand Final".

Sure, it's a Final, but there aint anything "Grand" about it compared to the real thing!

Was thinking this today actually E.M.

One of the big beefs was the lack of interstate matches not shown down there last year (ala the West Coast game.)

"Footy first" I hope also includes "Supporters right behind".

They don't have to do much for the evening - just open it up, serve some pies and snags and have a tap on or serve frothies in cans and soft drinks.

Wouldn't cost them THAT much.

Did they give a reason?

sarah 2 · Post: # 526592Post **sarah 2** » Mon 03 Mar 2008 10:13pm

because it was on channel 10 is all they could tell me

TimeToShineFellas · Mon 03 Mar 2008 10:20pm

I reckon that's a cop out.

Still, we're only suporters and members hey

casey scorp · Mon 03 Mar 2008 10:24pm

Maybe the TB Room no longer satisfies Building Regulations for public assembly.

Enrico_Misso · Mon 03 Mar 2008 10:57pm

Piss poor management.

And a huge opportunity lost.
They could have had 2000 people there if they had got their act together and generated a shyte load of revenue.

Time for a new Board ?
