Just had a laugh My Wife and daughter have taken No.1 grand daughter to Luna park today (I cannot go).

Daughter just sms'd " Gee the players are young!"

No Darling you are getting older.

Ha ha there is some justice in the world.

Jack Watts a no show.

some very sad teen girls moping around.

Nice to see Pedo greeting the kids at the gate.

I've been to the last three with my boy - they are definitely getting busier and busier. This one typically well done and it was good to talk with the new brigade (esp. after a win). Would be good to see if the membership numbers spike a bit as a result.

In fairness to Jack, the coaching staff told me that there was an illness in the family that meant he couldn't be there. Estimated 4000 there one of the biggest turn outs ever.

was the membership tent busy?

Yesterdays result would have opened a few wallets i bet. 

Timing couldn't have been better for a family day.

Went there with 3/4 of the family.  A great day and definitely the numbers are increasing each year.  Great access to the players who were in the general approachable (some you could tell would have preferred not to be there) and a great venue especially for those with younger kids.  Hats off to the Demon Army - great work again and hopefully you have recruited my daughter.

Yeah it was a great morning at Luna Park. I found all the lads i spoke to with my boys very approachable. Big Max was clearly the most popular. Numbers seemed bigger than i can ever recall down there, i think we may outgrown the venue by next year, i gave up waiting in line to go on the rides such was the crowd size.

And yes the membership tents were busy, yesterdays performance was ideal timing id say!

WTF were you doing at a "family" day Biffen?  Recruiting? Procuring? Selling?

Must have been poor security!!

Went with my grandson after he had his footy training this morning. 

We arrived fairly late but he was thrilled to get a wave from Dom Tyson and James Harmes just as they were leaving.

Still cost a fair bit because I bought the young bloke a training jumper at the Demon Shop. Not cheap.

Saw a young fella down at the local shops today in a Melbourne clash jumper.  Hadn't seen that for a while.

Just got home and discussed the day with my wife.

from a Collingwood supporter the following.

- What a lovely bunch of people there I can only imagine what a Pies one would be like!

- A player spoke to my GD and asked her had she been to a game yet ? To which she answered No Pa makes me watch on TV. I asked my wife who was it? How do I know! So I have no idea who this nice boy was.

the Pies supported was impressed.

The good and bad of yesterday, Bad Luna Park, good because we have out grown it. The venue is now to small for us.
