Eating a pie at the footy

Except the ones that are too hot.

Being greedy and not waiting for it too cool down resulting in nibbling it and realising after its gone there was no enjoyment.

The price of beer is theft.

And the other Pies... Cwood fans.

Likes...the anticipation

The anticipation which is now accompanied with expectation.

The wins after both which we have experienced so many of recently.

Never been a better time to be a Dees supporter.

    Good.

    1. Aussie rules infiltrating rugby states.

    2. Essendon doing time for their many sins.

    3. Whipping it good in '21.

    Bad.

    1. Colonial stadium. 

    2. Calling Aussie rules 'AFL'.

    3. Teams 'VERSING' each-other.

    A fourth one: The AFL sc*****g-over S.A and W.A native competitions.

    The Good:

    Driving to the G, the anticipation walking through the park mingling with the fans from both sides

    Sitting in our usual seats surrounded by familiar friendly Dee supporters and eating a pie.

    Singing the song multiple times after a hard fought win or relaxing early in the game when we are on too early

    The Bad:

    Walking back to the car after a loss and hearing the opposition song being belted out.

    Rude drunken supporters acting like they won the game!!

    Not being able to watch the replay when we get home and reliving the what if’s fresh in your mind.

    I saw in one of the papers today that Round 1 of the NRL had total attendances about 25,000 below the combined total of Richmond v Carlton and Collingwood v Geelong. I know NRL crowds are always lower, that they have smaller grounds and I believe have excellent TV numbers...but wouldn't you rather be at the MCG with 50,000+ other fans watching an AFL game than anywhere else?

    Just one more...

    Best: Jeremy Howe flying for marks

    Worst: Jeremy Howe landing awkwardly.

    I hope he has a speedy recovery and can get back on the playing field. The game is so much better for his marking skill. Undoubtedly, the best exponent of not just the high, spectacular mark, but any form of marking that I've ever seen. And I've been watching for over 50 years.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
