Yep you know it’s GameDay when it’s 10am and already you’ve had three coffees and five cigarettes and you’re about to crack open your first Red Bull. I slept terribly last night, can’t imagine how our debutants slept. I even dreamt about today (spoiler alert: we won!). The weather makes today tricky… not in terms of the match. Rather, what to wear. 😅 A poncho is the only cert. ☔️🌧 All things considered… We’ve got this! Dees by The Bison - 19pts GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS! GIVE ‘EM HELLLLLL It’s The Bison’s birthday! Let’s hope he has the best birthday present ever… a win on debut!

Bailey Scott may still be a chance.

Ima bail on the Centrelink Cup match and flick over to the North match. Slim pickins tonight. 😭

Somewhere in the 1970s there’s a porn actor missing on set.

Poor bugger.

The horror, THE HORROR! #BannerNightmare

Hmmmm that’s strange. I was there the entire time and I didn’t see the players hugging a creepy person 🤔

That’s regulation Jeffo. He always looks like that. It’s funny you mentioned him looking nervous because the last thing I said to him today was “No need to be nervous, Matty. You’ve got this!” He said, “I’ll try (to not be nervous), we’ll see how I go.” But yeah, he’d be nervous.

What happened to your idea of doing a podcast? Also, you expect me to consider the idea of a post-game segment with you when you leave the apostrophe out of the title? PS: I’ve told Jeffo about you in the past, about how you’re a big fan of his and how you’ve been gunning for his selection for ages, etc. Today I told him my mate (that’s you PF. I pretended we’re friends) is rapt that he’s been named. He said, “He’ll be behind the goals with you?” I said, “Nah, he’s not even going to be at the game.” He nodded slowly and had the look on his face of Cool, my biggest fan won’t even be there. Shame on you PF! 😝

I approached BT and said, “Hi, BT. I’m roaming Ghosty.” He said, “Oh no” and actually looked a little frightened 😅 and much to my disappointment he was really nice. I hate it when that happens.

It was the mother of S&Gs sessions therefore we can be forgiven for indulging in a S&Gs thread, surely. It didn’t even go for the advertised 30 mins. As he was walking back to the rooms, Salo said, “Thanks for coming for the solid 10-minute session!”

All players are here. I congratulated the debs and as I hugged each one the rest of the boys yelled and clapped, especially for Jeffo, they went nuts. X escaped my clutches but Maxy called him back. Maxy knows: keep the nuffie happy and she’ll leave you alone 😝

Casey boys are out on the park. Noah Ooze and Roy Boy included. Seniors to join them shortly.

Thank you! I’m glad I asked since I would’ve congratulated all of them.

S&Gs this morning, which is ok imo since they’ve trained so hard at Casey this week. Serious question: when congratulating debutants, should they ALL be congratulated, including emergency and sub players?

😂😂😂 I hope you don’t have a copyright on this coz I’m using it! 😂😂😂

I hear ya, Deeves. The ‘G is indeed a very special place, and not just when games are playing there. I regularly have occasion to be there when there’s nothing on and that’s when the experience is next level spiritual. It’s a beautiful imposing structure and there’s no better sporting venue on the planet. An extra special experience is Sleep at the ‘G in May every year. Wandering around the concourse in the dark is amazing and waking up there is trippy.

Please god the same thing that happened to the scores last night doesn’t happen tonight. For the love of all things good and holy, PLEASE DON’T LET ESSENDON WIN. Amen

Definitely NOT injured. ”Crook in the guts”

Disco out. Crook.

… and when they’re finally 100% injury/niggle-free since January 2022 👍🏽

Was wondering when you’d rear your demanding little head. My dear (but disproportionately superstitious) friend is there but has asked me (begged me, in fact) to not post anything she says. She fully believes in the power of mozzing. True story. Soz. 🤷‍♀️

The fine folks of Coldstream say hi and whaddya mean “nowhere”? 😂

The boys are training at Casey right now. Another serious match sim. Captain’s Run at Gosch’s tomorrow for half an hour beginning at 10am.

Turns 29 this year. 👍🏽 We made Sunday’s banner last night and it’s gonna look AMAZING. I say “gonna” because it’s hard to know how good it looks ‘til seen from afar. Anyways, one side acknowledges Fritta’s milestone with a huge graphic. The other side acknowledges Beyond Bank with some shamrocks strewn around. No Jim graphic. Whatevs 🤷‍♀️ #BigJimmy-ForeverInOurHearts sneak peek:
