Tragic End to a great night

In absolute shock. Have just heard the Broadway Hotel where Saints fans partied after our great win last night was totally guttered within half an hour of fans leaving. Thankfully no one hurt, but very tragic for the Dietrich family who have worked very hard to build it up.

Is that Carl's family?. After all that they have been through. Let's hope that it is well insured and they can re-build !!

That's tragic news. At least no one was hurt.

Sorry to hear the bad news after what would have been a great night for you guys.

There will probably be an article in the Sun or Age by Mark Robinson or Caroline Wilson that St. Kilda fans and players have set fier to the place.

I visted the Broadway earlier this year to watch the NAB GF. Lovely old pub. Very Sad to hear it has gone.

Hope they can rebuild .

I am very sad to hear this we stayed in Brisbane for the game and had a very good meal at the Broadway on Friday night. It was great to see Carl and to chat with the staff there. What a sad ending for a great weekend.

Its frightening really, an hour earlier and it would have been full of Saints Supporters. Feel soooooooooo sorry for them.

While a terrible event, thank goodness nobody was hurt.

That is the main thing.

Absolutly tragic.

Hopefully they have good insurance and can get the place rebuilt.

Good news that nobody was hurt.

BANG BANG
