On the train and a guy asks me how to get to the ‘G, it’s his first week as a security guard at the ‘G and his train line is down (Mernda) so he was lost. Anyways that’s beside the point… he told me his boss told him and the other guards to expect a crowd of 40-45,000! I said “That’s all?! Where are the rest of ‘em? Bloody Carlton fans, fairweather to the core!!”

Turns out bro is a Carlton supporter 😂

Sorta. More like a flap actually. Square holes with tape to strengthen the sides and a flap of crepe paper on the top. I’m sure you’d do that anyway.

Now Ethan and anybody else out there stand by....

Myself and Mrs Fence will be in Venice around the 30th August!

I suspect it is the good citizens of Venice who will need to "stand by " for the cultural renaissance that your visit will bring picket.

Should be a big splash at the Biennale than.


So every week we get a numbered lanyard which allows us to go out on the ground. Some people have their fave player’s number every week. I always say “lucky dip me!” This week I got this one…

We’ll still take the banner out and lay it out in readiness for raising and then if the wind has died down sufficiently we can do it right before the boys run out.

We have to be mindful of sudden gusts. One of our guys was hit on the head by a pole at Casey on a relatively calm day when a huge gust came out of nowhere. And that was at a W match where the banner and poles are smaller.

Prediction is 10 to 15 kmh winds by game time. Your hard work will be OK.

Well, I don't know how many Dees are up the snow but I'm at Pesaro on the east coast of Italy (temp about 35 today) and there's not a Carlton jumper to be seen anywhere. I'm off to Venice today. May see one there. I doubt it

Venice, very nice. Veneto is the ancestral home of the Silvagni Clan 😎 Waving to you from the other, more scenic eastern coast of the Adriatic, my son has donned his Auskick Blues shirt to watch the game with me.

Writing to you from Dalmatian Coast in Croatia, ancestral of home for Carlton 80s Premiership players like Val Perovic and John Dorotich and also Allan Jakovich, two time leading goal kicker for the Dees in the early 90s. After some hassles renewing the AFL app, looks like its working now 🤞

May the best team win today 😊

I'm humidifying in Siem Reap.

Will have a delicious bowl of Pho and meander over to the God awful Pub Road to watch it in a God awful pub looking every inch the Aussie bogan tourist in my dees jumper and red and blue multi purpose Cambodian scarf.

Go Asuras

Siem Reap, nice enjoy 😎

I will be watching in a seaside village in Croatia with a walnut liquer and a strong black coffee.

May the best team win today 😊

 

Nice pre game show for a very important cause.

Well done to Carlton for supporting this.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
