The dawn breaks and we're first up today at the MCG.

Our opponent has an extraordinary number of top 20 draft choices on its list but, as we well know, that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

This game is at our home and, as much as we broke a hoodoo when we beat them in our last game at Etihad, it's time to reclaim the MCG as our home against these northern invaders.

 

Gotta hold the influence of Shaw. He starts so many of their attacking waves.

So jealous of everyone who gets to watch today. 

First game of the season is always so exciting, the hope it brings is like no other. 

Hopefully I'll wake up tomorrow to a great first win and some delightful highlights of Oliver kicking 4 goals.

Go Dees!!!

I have that nervous first day of school feeling I used to get as a child. So much potential and promise for the season ahead.

Best to keep your sugar/alcohol levels up .

I don't want your energy to peak or decline before acceptances.

I. AM. PUMPED.

My foxtel dosent get here till the 4th of April (if its on time) so it's Corowa's anual Easter Saturday Billy kart races for me. Believe it or not it will probably get more heated down Sanger St than at the G today, lots of swearing and throwing bottles, its a great family day

My childhood was much the same-sans the billy carts.

Wish I could be there. Sounds far better than being at the G.  :-/

2016 has definitely got that " Start of a new dawn" feeling. I am super excited about today....Hulk Hogan, Jack Viney, Big Maxy....

Lets smash these soulless franchise northern state pretenders & make a huge statement to the rest of the comp?

Got woken by the girlfriend after very little sleep. She wants to go and look at houses to buy. Adam's got a short fuse now and he's writing in third person, so we'd better hope the MFC put up a good showing, otherwise it's going to get messy in the MCC.

 

KILL...

Are we there yet?

stay tuned

I am predicting Jesse Hogan to redeem himself in a huge way, 14 marks, more than half contested and 6 goals straight in a dees 27 point win.

Is swearing and bottle throwing mainly by the kids on this family-friendly day? Or is it more an all-in event?

All in hopefully...

These days the swearing is from the kids, some of the things I hear out of teenagers mouths is disgusting

For anyone who needs to kill time before the game starts:

Go Dees!!!

Well as life panned out the wife has Ms suffering in Milawa all weekend. Loved to have got to this game , alas I'll have to settle for keeping an eye on the scoreboard, these boards and raising the occasional Prosecco ( courtesy of mine hosts..Brown Bros )

Go you good team,

Tear'em a new one Dees, Ward off these northern pretenders.:)
