Geez, I don't stand out much wearing a red shirt and a red cap. :oops:


Made it easy to find you, but you stood close to me anyway without you knowing it! :)

Funny thing was, I thought Im wearing a NAFC hat so some people can find me but I dont want to wear a North Adelaide Tshirt, after going through my wardrobe without raiding the summer clothes at the back all I could bloody well find was North Adelaide tops.
I finally scrounged up a non North Adelaide Tee which was a Living End Tshirt, BUT IT WAS RED!
Ah well. Its nice to stand out in a crowd, I didn't cop any abuse, just a few strange looks. :wink:

PS Rumour has it that Skipworth didn't rock up today because he knew I'd be there! :lol:

My desk is laden with Eagles colours =) This just adds to it!!

I should give Mick Atkinson a call haha. I was outside his office this morning fixing his PA's PC. They were putting up streamers there too!

Short and sweet from memory (the beer fumes were getting to me).
Mentioned respect, going both ways... rivalry - and plenty more matches like this in the future.

Maybe that was someone else, but that was the general gist :)

Yeah pretty much that, he was great, I always have the utmost respect for Roy Laird, in the way he coaches, presents himself and speaks, easily my most respected coach in the SANFL.
Congratulated the Eagles players and fans and was very well accepted by Eagles fans.

I'd say he is negotiating a deal to get traded to another club interstate and out of SA for good, eh, Wedge? :wink:

What amazed me the most was the way this Eagle flew in for the ceremony and stayed still throughout the whole shindig.

I kept looking around for Birdman!!

OK - i cant spell - but i just got home - a great day at the brewery - boys now in the bus to who knows where! - a great day - Wedgie - no photos please- just the boys and that chimney !!

Congratulations to all the Eagles fans at the chimney today - a great turn out - extremely respectful to Both Tom Zorich and Roy Laird from Centrals. Also gave the umps and Brett Backwell due respect.
Special congratulations to Rod Payze of the SANFL for the gesture to Gavin Colville, our club captain. Most emotional.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know the boys are celebrating well and are having a wonderful time as are the officals and the board.

See the Eagles fly up in 2007!!!

I received an email (I assume it was you), from a hotmail account and sent the pics straight back. I hope hotmail doesn't have a problem with things of a largish nature coming through, anyway, check it out and see if they're there.

I see a player had to climb the rope again, must be a tradition.
