Ground Hog Day!

This time last week, Saturday morning we were all busy preparing for THE BIG DAY of 2010 - The AFL Grandfinal!!

Adam, Nash and Bron's Magpies had made it through to the grand final!
So the streamers and balloons came out along with the special catering! Collingwood Cup Cakes! For the Aussie Rules uneducated - DIDS is Didak!
Nash resplendent in his little Maggie jumper, mini Sherrin in hand, the real thing at his foot!
Even Grandad got into the swing of things (don't worry Carol, it was only for a couple hours!) He was back in his Crows gear straight after. You know he'll do anything for his grandkids :)
Along with the Collingwood Canadians, we were all revved up for a good game.
Here's the crowd right at the start. Over 100,00 Collingwood and St Kilda supporters


And the team, bonding and ready to play
Adam, nervous and pensive waiting for the first bounce.
It didn't take long
for him to be out of his seatNervously waiting for the ball to go through the big sticks!
Elation with the first goal on the board!!!!

And so the game progressed until over 2 hours later.................

THIS

STUNNED CROWD - it was amazing to see the entire stadium just sit stunned at the result.

along with the STUNNED CAPTAINS

OH MY GOSH - A DRAW!!!!!!!!!!

SEE YOU ALL NEXT WEEK :)
