Turned on a cracker of a day for you. Sun is out and not a breath of wind so far.
Make sure you two get a photo together with that tray of beers !
Haha it’s just going to be me and a tray of beers, isn’t it?? :(
Surely you’ll have company though? It might not be Billy Walker himself, but with the promise of complimentary beers, you’ll have dozens of “Billy Walker’s” lining up to say hi
If he’s not wearing his broncos jersey I’m not believing him

I've settled into an odd calm - feel like I'm in the eye of the tornado at the moment. Lets go boys, you got this.

Nobody is stealing my beers! Don’t give anyone a beer that can’t produce evidence of a Billy Walker logon!

Knocking off at four and then the reality of a HOME PRELIM will finally settle in. I'll be on the 6.20 bus into the ground.

Good luck Raiders, good luck GHers. What a season.

Sources tell me of a set play the Raiders have been practicing at training called the Charnze-NarutoRun Klokstad
Would have won Boogs - 2016, 2017, 2018

I am so nervous.

I was born the year after the Raiders last premiership. Never enjoyed a game as big as this one tonight supporting this team.

The buzz around the place is awesome- work today is Green day. Everyone decked out in green, green food everywhere. Green Machine song playing.

C'mon you wonderful Raiders specimens! You have the whole town behind you :cmon

Today is already overwhelming. There are green jumpers everywhere. Entire school assemblies doing the Viking Clap. Social media rammed with Raiders posts and well wishes. Just a general buzz out and about and at work. I said it weeks ago when we played Melbourne, it is days like this that make it all worthwhile.

I love it when the town gets right behind them, experiencing all the bad times makes days like today super emotional. I'll be thinking of my fellow GH users today and tonight, when all is said and done we're all the diehards in it together every week and I hope every one of you on here that shares this journey together every season gets the performance and result they deserve tonight. All the best green family.
We continue to **** about with blokes that are part of some fraternity. It's infuriating.

People are saying that the radio announced George Burgess as being out. Which would mean Dean Britt or Jadyn Su'a in. My guess is Britt

2010 in my mind..
This team has proven me wrong a few times already though.

Heard rumours of Papa coming off the bench. B.S?

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

I am with you mate. Will always be an Essendon supporter first but jumped on board with the Giants from day 1 as a foundation member. Going to Melb tomorrow. Will be wearing the hat Sheeds gave me when they were still in the NEAFL.
