Kiss of Death

It wasn't too bad - dribs and drabs arrived immediately after, they had a big screen up with the Debt Demolition logo, a small stage with some 'beats' being played out by a guy with turntables, pony rides for the kids (which was really cute), a bunch of breakdancers and jumping castles etc. They players turned up around 6:00pm, a lot of signatures and friendly chat behind the grandstand, and then the rest of the players turned up at the front. I saw a lady having a nice chat/debate with Bails about our game plan, and he sketched out a little football oval and showed some details for her! Was really good to have a chat with Brad Miller, he was very very approachable, Cam Bruce was ridiculously distant - almost seemed put out to chat with me. Isaac Weetra was good to chat with, although it was clear a lot of people weren't sure who he was - same with Cale Morton (surprisingly) . PJ says things are feeling good after the surgery but it's still not long after (still had crutches). Moloney looked snazzy in a suit, most players were in tracksuits. Jimmy was there pressing flesh, my god he is tall. There was a rev-up about the Debt Demolition, a quick chat about how we're doing, but i had to leave fairly shortly after that. I do know Bails was going to have mock interviews of a few players, i overheard a support staffer chatting with him (he was to be up next) but i had to leave around then. A little disappointed i didn't stay, i wanted to get a few videos on the snazzy new cameraphone and youtube them. All up there would probably have been 500-1000 people there, but i'm a terrible guess of figures.

Grimey said he was caught out a little by the speed of the game after the match, will be better for the run. Anybody else hear a little cheer around the ground when he got his hands on the ball?

The reaction of the crowd at olympic park could be interesting. Two classic demon supporters in front of me here, discussing 'our number 20's' game.
