I'm not sure what to expect, but it's a historic event for the code and the club and I reckon we should get behind it regardless. Anything that makes the game more appealing to broader families and gives greater opportunities for women to play and showcase their athletic ability should be supported wholeheartedly by every one.
Go the Blues...........

Been a rollercoaster week for me this week.
Lost a family member who was a lifelong blues member who made the front page of the Herald after we won the '79 GF. :'(
Had my 2nd child today who is already a signed up blues member. ;D
History in the making tonight.
Wish i could've been there, but i think its a fair excuse!

Sorry should've said it was a boy, my 2nd boy.
He's a baby 'rhino bear' if anyone was wondering.

That is a roller-coaster Kruddler.
Mixed emotions, no doubt but all the best.
Sympathies for the loss and congratulations on the birth.
It's a funny old world sometimes. ???

...and on that note ("funny old world")... the Collingwood captain's father has just earned himself a ban. >
;D(seriously, good luck to Steph, hope she plays well in a losing side.

The crowd on the TV looks amazing - the atmosphere must be awesome.
Looking forward to some first hand reports about the night. Go Blues - first win of 2017 in early Feb will do nicely thank you............
