Kids don't need o follow their parents team.

They don't need to eat the same food or enjoy the same comforts as their parents .

They can choose to be Mavericks and choose to follow Hawthorn, choose to sleep in the garden shed and eat from the rubbish.

Of course he can Biff but I'd love him to enjoy supporting the Dees and be able to take him along. I loved going with my old man.

Well, I can confirm one win for the women's team already.

She had come to a few games (her first game of AFL was Demons v Tigers on Anzac Eve, that went well) and was positive about it all but was a long way from making it a personal interest of her own, rather than just a thing of mine that she'd come to when she felt like it.

I'd been telling her about the new women's league with great pride for months, and she was happy and all, but still, not personal. Then during the 'all-stars' Demons-Dogs game a few weeks ago, I turned the laptop to her to share, thinking it would just be a few minutes of 'hey, that's cool, ok'. She was really into it, she was barracking for the jumper and emotionally attached. There was a sparkle in her eyes, a kind of 'it really is real' moment. 

I think over coming years we'll actually see a few supporters who are first and foremost women's team, and who 'also barrack for the men, since they are also Demons and I'm Red & Blue'.

Correct, if they chose to follow Whorethorn, you are choosing to also eat out of the garbage and sleep in the garden shed.

My wife has no interest in the football at all. I have tried to get her involved but it just doesn't happen.

In fact she's happy for me to go to the games or travel interstate and get on the beers as she knows it helps with switching off.

On the other hand 2 of my best friends have been going to the football together for 40 years. Passionate North fans.

Started out cans of Vic and pies in the outer together.

Now they take their 3 kids to games all around the country making a real family event of going to the football.

They have watched 3 premierships together.

Its a beautiful thing and I know which one I would prefer.

Yeah that makes me feel a little sad for you.

Then I think of the complete disinterest my wife shows sometimes when at the games and I think sometimes it would be better if she wasn't there LoL.

Now I am confused. As Pauline Hanson would say, "please explain"

I checked my scarves and for some reason yours look better than mine.

Dirty old man....

Ex wife says same thing.  

Most of these girls never stood in front of DSLR  - they're the ones " urging me on."Not into that actually, so sorry, no more photos.

Girlfriends all practising professionals;  Artist, receptionist, engineering student and school teacher  

I leave  bar girls - pole dancers for the roughnecks and roustabouts.

Just glad to see you have been able to get involved with the local culture and impart some "good Aussie culture" across the other way Radar. Fine ambassador by the looks of things.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
