Who's interested in a road trip?

Talk about everything Essendon. Past, Present and Future if it's about the Bombers this is the place to be.

"Apparently" there is a pub across the road from the hotel..... How coincidental :lol:
Hope it doesn't end up like the Sydney trip a few years ago. That ended up a little bit messy but was a fun night.

hahaha... great wekend that one... drank the pub dry of Draught :D
Wish I could go but I'm off to Vegas after the Richmond game. I've been to the Gabba twice and we have lost both of them.

So what is the go? Is anyone keen to meet up at a pub before or after? I have just driven half of the height of this country and feel an away victory would go some way to compensating me for the rest of victories I am going to miss this season.

Went with tiger to the Sydney game last year, 3 hour flight delay (they said it wad technical issues but it was because the flight was empty) then also copped another 3 hour delay on the way back. Would rather crawl to Sydney than use tiger.

The freo game is on the long weekend, I'm heading to Perth for that one, got a cousin who lives over there
I'm going with Tiger from Sydney to Brisbane for the game.

At first I thought the same...this is going to be murder. But with Qantas on strike today, its probably turned out to be a blessing.

Where is the pineapple? My wife (who is a brisbanite originally) has no idea. And where are the victory celebrations to be held?

didn't get to the Pineapple... Being across the road from the Story Bridge hotel we figured we may as well just stay there... And they had a free shuttle bus there and back....

Highly recommend the Story Bridge pub .. And the "quest on story Bridge" is a good place to stay
