At Sunday’s match during the first quarter our bay was abuzz upon hearing Guerra was sitting somewhere amongst us. Folks were inconspicuously glancing around etc. trying to see if he really was there.

At the quarter time break a member of the DA who’s not backward in coming forward went a-hunting for him. She found him, introduced herself, welcomed him to our cheer squad then gave him one piece of advice, that being… if you wanna succeed at our club you need to forget Essendon exists. “Essendon is now dead to you,” she said firmly. “I trust we understand one another,” she added almost menacingly.

We, oh I mean they both laughed; she, heartily and he, nervously.

He said he’s resolutely and unwaveringly committed to the Demons so she spared him any further discomfort.

I think he appreciated her honesty. That, or he’s scared sch!ttless of her.

Did he look you in the eye ??

No, he blinked a lot as he spoke though.

Poor form considering tax payers are paying for 30-45% of the cost of facilities owned by private schools through their tax deductable building contributions.

At least one thing Latham got right

He had no choice. Hard to not look someone in the eye when they’re all up in your grill.

Was he wearing a blue suit? I could have sworn I was sitting near him on level 1 in the MCC early in the first quarter. Didn't want to annoy him.

Nor did I

But I did anyways 😜

He was wearing a blue suit. I’m sure he blended in while in the MCC but he stood out like dog’s proverbials in the cheer squad. If the suit didn’t give him away the wavy bouffant did.

Geez your hatred for Ess......... has no depth. That conversation hopefully might put them off from looking at Hird as our next coach🤮 We know what influence you have at the Club!!

Buckley said he already has a relationship with Guerra on fox footy which surprised me.

I listened to him on 3AW and agree he was excellent

I wish Paul Guerra all the best as the new Demons CEO.

Has he started early? It's still only August.

Nevertheless...he has ALOT to do.

But as we all keep saying the number 1# priority is getting our Home Base built at the Caulfield Racecourse!

Guerra on 3AW: “I’ll be really clear - we’ll go to Caulfield Racecourse”

Yeah I saw him tonight in the members to. He seemed obliging to stop & talk to people

Six to eight coaching candidates will be assessed (implicitly, but not explicitly, by the panel). One or two recommendations will be taken to the board. Before preliminary final weekend.

Clearly, yes, from the 3AW interview, in everything but name - e.g. was an equal partner in the Goodwin decision with his acting counterpart.

That 3aw interview inspires me with confidence. The sooner this bloke starts the better

At least he's hit the ground running. 6 months after they said he would. Fantastic.

He came down to our bay at one point and sought me out. He wanted to meet Ryan, our awesome chant-leader who was in the same row. Ryan was busy waving a giant flag (we had just kicked a goal so there was bedlam with giant everythings waving about) so he said, “Please tell Ryan I said hello” and he turned to leave. I said, “Paul! Come in and sit with us!” The poor thing looked horrified 🤣
