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.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
