The Richmond banner crew were great. Kinda felt sorry for them as they seemed resigned to an inevitable loss and were quiet and let us lead the way. I imagine this would’ve been us in years gone by. ☹️

Some mentions on here about Shaz and the grog squad and yes, Shaz is still front and centre of the Tiger Army. I met her on Thursday at banner making and we hit it off immediately but didn’t know her name. Chatted with her in the race yesterday and straight up asked if she was the infamous Shaz from days of old. She (rather proudly) said she is indeed. She’s been in the Tiger Army for 45 years!

PS: see that yellow and black crepe? Yeah well that was all my doing. It’s a dirty job but someone had to do it.

Y’all are welcome. 😁

Forgot to remind folks that I took one for the team

    No pics this week, for two reasons: firstly, it was a relatively routine banner so the wording should suffice…

    … and secondly, I’ll need enough pic allowance for banners such as this week’s which is a milestone one… MAYSIE’S 200TH GAME!!!!

    Right? It’s perfect for us.

    Speaking of perfect, I love that we bastardised Queensland’s own slogan on the back. It’s a little bit cheeky but a big bit funny. 😂

    Those of us who made this banner got to sign a card for Maysie’s 200th which was stuck on the banner and carefully removed afterwards and given to him. ❤️💙

    I said what I say to him pretty much every week as he runs through the banner… “Loveya Maysie!” With a black heart. Black because that’s the only texta we had.

    Another outsanding banner WCW. 

    Love the snapshots of Mayzy top right.

    Roughly how many hours and how many are involved in putting one together?

    Thank you, DD. We’re particularly proud of this banner. The time it takes to make one depends on whether or not there’s a graphic (as in Maysie’s above) or just lettering. Also depends on how many people rock up on the night. I’ve been there when there’s only six of us and I’ve been there when there’s 54 of us (eg: banner making for QB and ANZAC eve). The average time it takes would be 4 hours.

    I brought a friend from the UK who had never been to the footy before. I made sure we were there before the team ran out so he could experience the banners. He thought they were incredible and couldn't believe how big they were.
    He'd never seen anything like it. 

    Thank you @WalkingCivilWar for all your hard work that contributes to the great culture of our game.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
