Happy Mother Day

Woke up and had to pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming again . Red and Blue all over on the outside from bruising .

First time I can remember to the Dees on top of the ladder ( not sure what happened in 2005 ) . First time I am watching On the Couch .  First time I am watching most other games . First time I am happy to talk footy with anyone . First time on Demonland . Plus lots more .

Footy is much more fun when your team are doing well .

Yeah it's All a bit surreal.  I watched the game on the deck of my Airbnb in Sydney so I couldn't yell like normal but I didn't really think that we would lose even when they got within a kick at the end

Awhile ? Not that Hutchy if that is what you mean . Check my post on breaking the Norm Smith Curse if interested .

Any firsts for you Cards ?

I wasn’t being serious Hutch! Just the sense of positiveness that has not been felt since the early 2000’s about my club.

My almost 6yr old is wrapt every time I tell him we’ve won so that is a bonus as well, I think I’ve got him hooked to the Dees.

It’s amazing how your expectations of the team change. Wasn’t worried about losing last night at any point, whereas in prior years I would have spent the entire game waiting for the Swan’s to run over the top. Nothing lasts forever, so need to enjoy this moment.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
