Match-Day: Dons v Cats! #NAB2

A win would be nice, but I’m not overly concerned with the scoreline.
Just give me a look at some more kids, and don’t drop your heads.
Fight it out until the final siren and I’ll be happy.

Zerrett, Zaka and Gwilt out

WTF. This will be a bloodbath

And no injuries.
Hi David J

Would you please enlighten us on the hot chips situation in Shepparton?


No.

Ground announcer didn’t have to ask us to cheer our team coming out for warmup… unlike for Geelong!

Might drop a sneaky pineapple on Geelong by 100+

Need to wash some money under Crownbet’s bullshit rule of having to cycle free bets through once more at $1.50 odds or greater. Geelong paying 1.52 to win by 40+ so wacked 100 on.

Fletcher is here <3

Morgan warming up as midfielder. Ditto Gleeson and Fantasia.

Laverde not.

Reports doing the rounds that ex-Geelong Brownlow Medalist Paul Couch has died of a heart attack. Very sad if true, only 51 y.o. Do wonder if the teams are aware.

Hartley casual 65m kick out.

No.

YOU MONSTER!

However, ice cream is available near the eastern gate, at non-extortionate prices.

Fletcher is here <3

Sign him up.

Any way to view this for those playing along at home?

Almost no breeze here now (it made a huge difference when there was some). Any breeze will be from the north, across the ground. Essendon cheer squad eastern end, Geelong cloggers at the western end.

Main grandstand still almost empty. Rest of ground not quite to capacity but with no gaps.

Big Essendon following there DJR? What's the balance of support?

It’s not too lopsided but we clearly have the numbers.
