Tanked: Three years today

[Jade]

This thread has a short shelf life, obviously. So mods can do with it as they will.

Just figured it might be worth pointing out that tanked started today, three years ago.

Today, no matter which side of the argument you come down on, was a bloody brutal day.

Thought it might be worth reminding people that some of the best mates I have came through the EFC, and in this case, by deciding that having a piss up with complete strangers might be a good thing.

Go easy on each other eh?

I've only ever been to that one (Richmond curtain raiser - beers at the pub and then Jack Package getting kicked out of a random ladies seat high in the nose bleed section at the AFL game that night ) but my god it was such a good day.

Like you Jade, it gave me a new realisation that people on here, like minded individuals are all invested in one thing. Essendon Football Club.

Tanked has been a godsend and I applaud you for the job you have done over the years Jade. Hopefully I can get to another one in the near future ey

Yup, have met some top blokes, and also scezza - but mostly I got to accidentally abuse Cuddles Connolly.

Anyway, as corny as this is going to sound, Tanked's have changed my life.

Really?

 

[DapperDon]

Post season summer beers anyone?

Say like some time around November for no particular reason?

Yes, that will be a thing IMO.

Yes, that will be a thing IMO.

Of course it will be. We need to celebrate the end of a shit year.

Really?

I do not classify that as a Tanked, that was a post-work grievance session/Fishbowl Friday with guest appearances.

no definitely not a Tanked.

Been to one, was a great night. Would love to get to more but kids & a working wife make it difficult.

 

[Beerfish]

I'm counting last year's Crichton as a tanked because lord knows I was.

 

[Loonerty]

Everyone should list who they've met so I can figure out again who I met...

So, a few! A few of those have been through Sponsorship nights too.

And yes, I want to reiterate what a good thing these meets are.

We're probably all tired of footy right now but if you've never been to one of these, come along. They're immensely enjoyable.

 

[Whispering_Jack]

I think I've met most of those on your list. I know of a few on there that I haven't though...
