Anyone want to have a stab?

I'll jump in with 20,500 as an opener.

8000 still in the ground if we're down by more than 4 goals at any time.

I'd hope their was a movement started in Melbourne this week with the slogan

"Sack Knights now or we're not coming".

I think we'll get close to 30k, just because it's our last home game.. I'm going with a mate from Brisbane, with the intention of getting absolutely blind. If we win, bonus.

With any luk you'll be blind before the first bounce and not have to witness the "The Greatest Joke on Earth"

Unfortunately I'll be there......."what and give up show-business"?

Going with a mate who is a life long Fitzroy and Brisbane member.

Every time he comes with me to watch an Essendon game - we win.

St Kilda a fortnight ago, Carlton in the second half of last year, Brisbane at Docklands 3 years ago and ANZAC Day when Hirdy picked up his 3rd medal.

I suspect his drought is about to be broken.

Think this just about sums it up for me, too.
I'll go, but god only knows why and Idon't really how whether I want us to win or not.
In fact, don't even know whether I care or not.

Jonathan Brown out for today's game so will play his 200th against us.

Might bring another 40 or 50 in the gates...will have to revise my predictions upwards :wink:

Ah yes... And what a fine window it is. See you there Rob. Keep an eye out for the tall bloke with the Costanza-esque puffy jacket and below par personality...

The old Fitzroy supporters probably inflate our crowds against Brisbane, plus this week they're looking at a win and it's Brown's 200th which will probably also bring down more Brisbaneians than usual.

Na BD, it's around the other side of the stadium behind seats in aisle 27-29 on level 2.
