Deemented Are Go!

So we need to win 4 of the last 5. Watch us beat Stkilda and not turn up against Sydney, or some such scenario. How the stomach churns.

Ninthbourne

Holy moly, all that for 2! Love it ?

My favourite player as a kid was Stephen Febey. I liked that he wasn’t a superstar, but someone who worked hard to contribute to the team. I also liked the number 21. He also had a blonde-tipped mullet for a while which was pretty cool. I remember all the other kids teasing me at little league that a) I followed the Dees and b) I had the number of a no-name toiler on my back.

Watch Bruce find form and kick a bag

Haha! I’ll get the mrs to hide around the corner with a water spray bottle to capture the experience!

I’m all chips in emotionally today for a Dees win. High risk, high reward. This year was going to be my 5yo girls’ first real game at the G; for obvious reasons this won’t happen. So I’ve earmarked today’s high-stakes match against the Filth as our ‘going to the footy day’. Shortly we will construct the ‘Demons Train’ out of 3 cardboard boxes to emulate catching the train to Jolimont. The girls have their footy jumpers on already and colour coordinated outfits. They even made little scarves out of tissue ribbons for their cuddly toys. My darling partner, who had no interest in footy, will be the ‘pie lady’, kindly providing home made beef & mushroom pies and pork & sage sausage rolls for dinner at half time. Bless. The kids are blindly confident, nothing less than victory could create emotional turmoil right on bed time. Or elation. I am confident, not blindly, rather knowing that we have the goods to win today and I’ll tuck the girls in tonight with a smile knowing we’ve beaten the Old Enemy! My emotional contingency in the event of defeat will be the comfort of pies and snag rolls in my tummy! PS: my old man (Grandpa) is a Filth supporter, adding to the pressure...

Worms; excellent descriptive word. I can’t put my finger on it, but Stephenson looks like a cartoon villain of some sort with his withering bottle-blonde pouf of hair that looks like it will fall out with any more bleaching.

Good

Crows have NINE changes. if we can’t win this....

Daisy says hi. (Albeit 32)

Haven’t read whole thread, so apologies if already mentioned - when are the teams released for the Crows game? Or any game in this mid-week round for that matter?

You dropped yet, Binman? I’ve already had two. [censored], imagine actually watching the Dees tripping on acid ?. You’d never come out the other side I reckon

What’s in the smoker today, Josh?! ??

Wylie Buzza to come in and kick 5

Don Scott reminds me of Skeletor

I find myself jumping on the Game Day thread early to see what Josh is smoking/slow cooking/BBQing- good stuff!

“FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT...!”

This is the bloke that got smashed by a Nate Jones lookalike Dees fan a couple of years ago after he tipped his beer on him.

Yeah it seems that way, Pates. I’m also 38, quite jarring news. Thoughts to the Tuck family and friends.

Gone at age 38; horribly sad. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2020/07/20/former-richmond-midfielder-shane-tuck-passes-away/

Couple of brekky bongs followed by a couple of short blacks. One up, one down , Binman!
