Have heard the crowd will be pro Demons. I hope so.

Perhaps some Perth Dlanders have a clue?

Too early to tell but what would be the reason for this speculation. Tix sold?

In the city centre at the moment for lunch and a nerve settler before heading to the ground and it's looking very close to 50/50 supporter split.

My wife has outdone herself.

Footy franks

Sausage rolls

Kfc.

All the comfort food I need. I just wish there was some left.

I wonder how the players the are?

Its always fun to watch them line up and sing the anthem .

The nerves probably stay with them for most of the first as they run the nervous energy out of their system. But until then we usually see quite a few clangers and poor diposals. Will be harder on the younger players.

On the otherhand after being locked up for two weeks they are probably keen to just be out and about.

I so hope we get a great jump on them and keep a 30 point plus lead over them all day.

The bus is on its way .

Can now reveal under Freedom of information legislation (thank you Premier McGowan) on AFL Grand Final morning. That your Top End correspondents have managed to ‘negotiate’ the WA frontier and have been ‘embedded’ in the Demons campaign here in Perth.

We will endeavour as representatives of demon land to be on our ‘best’ behaviour all day and honour the traditional proprieties but there are no guarantees after the siren🚨! 
 

Just to give you folks back in the demon heartland some local colour.

Former captain Gary Lyon is ensconced in the Crown Casino Towers, a little too rich for us humble folk down here at ground zero in an air b&b.

We have ‘co-mingled’ as much as is possible with the troops and can report team morale is high and the preparation for ‘battle’ is at an absolute optimum.

The locals are ‘abuzz’ with the prospect of a Perth based Grand Final. With a perceptible groundswell of support for the red and the blue. 

The local media coverage with Ben Cousins redemption prominent, the Nik Nat and Nat show is in full swing. As expected the eagles and dockers don’t seem to disappear with seemingly acres of column space devoted to their post-season trivia. Just inside the back pages. 

Of the local demonland identities? 

We are on the lookout for a vintage Ford Mustang on high revs, screaming about the Swan river escarpment. But alas no sightings as yet, besides the public transport infrastructure has improved significantly since our last visit. 

When we bravely stood on the terraces at Subiaco to barrack on Robbie Flower resplendent in the Big White V.

Pennant St Dee and Chook are indubitably out there and will be in attendance. Although we are reliably informed DannyZ up early for breakfast  has apparently choked on his porridge.

 

The son  and heir and his wife are there with tickets. They have been fully briefed and are ready to roll.

Channel 7 just showed the team bus on the way to the ground.

That just kicked up the nerves.

[praha 10,270]

Jesus, the coverage pre game is dull.

Anyone wanting to take your mind off it watch storm v panthers what a game so far

Just had a 10km radius walk down at the G and it was so great to see some other fellow Dees fans about. Everything within reason of course but honestly it was just great to see some Dees fans around up and about.

Desk pop at Optus?

Might leave that until Monday, might be a bit unsafe doing it after a few drinks tonight

The time has crept up slightly. Don't know how but I guess it's a good thing. 

[Cassiew 1,869]

Dad has an unopened bottle of rum from 1956. If we win, we open it. If not, gets put away again next year

Arrived at my dads. Never seen him this excited. Yeah even wearing the Halloween nurse costume (thank goodness I wasn’t stopped by police! Dunno how I would have explained that) as I am official a ‘carer.’ 
This could be the best day of our lives or the worst. Just so glad we could be together. Brothers are on Skype. It’s a real family affair ❤️

I just hope you end up having to wear your hair like Sailor Moon for the whole of next week!!!

Enjoy the match with your Dad!

GO DEES! ❤️💙

Oh watching the boys getting off the bus is getting me excited but also nervous.

Happily to look like a fool if we win. Can in reality I’m no fool. I backed the winners
