We should win as we are the best team all year round on any ground.

For all the talk of the Pies draw, the Lions are 6-6 away from their home ground and most importantly, 0-2 at the MCG

But did I hear correctly the AFL has actually agreed to play their stupid songs after goals?

I highly doubt it. What's your source?

I'm watching the game from the open front of a pub on the beach road in Blackrock.
My friends and family are there, all barracking for the Pies.

Let's have a cold beer and drink to the magnificent, courageous Magpies
In Fly we trust!!!

God love him
They just spoke to Craig Kelly on MMM, he had no problems with it at all.

Anyway, done my prep for watching at home. Got supplies yesterday to make up a platter with cheese, salami and dips, up at 6:30 this morning, 6km walk, set of weights, check out Aldi special buys then home and cook a nice brunch with a Burger patty, slab of chilli Haloumi, 2 eggs, half an Avo, tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach with some Beetroot Hommus.

Kicking back listening to MMM, mentally prepared to lose but hoping to win, going to just enjoy the day and game.

Go Pies.

There's a great article in The Age today by Greg Baum, on the history, mystique and culture of our club and Grand Finals.

Oh & I heard Ticketek opened up more tickets for Restricted MCC members at 11:00am today - $372. + $6 fee, a friend scored one for me but I ain’t in Melbourne.
Seating apparently level 4 Ponnie.
Hopefully more Pies fans can get in.
