Re: Did we *+&lt;%^&lt; win????????

L has a bad habit of making me see sense. Always makes a VERY compelling case. Like "stop embarrassing me"

My 6yo has just started getting embarrassed about me saying "Bye baby girl" when I drop her off at school.

I've got a very long 12 years ahead of me.

I stood there in sheer shock and delight for a solid ten minutes after the game just making sure we'd definitely won.

My dad, brothers and cousins all went by train. Went in early for the march, got there just as the speeches were wrapping up, and didn't get home till about 1.30. They were in no hurry whatsoever to get home.

The roar when the siren went was just magical. So great for Caleb to get the last goal right at the end.

Starting a week of nightshift that night.

All being well we'll be gathering for a celebration.

You have westdog54. I have 3 daughters all over 21 now. At 6 years of age it is the easiest time. From somewhere from 12 years to 14 years depending on the girl they change from a rational person to irrational. Then the fun begins. Beware! Happily though to report that all have gone back to the rational side now.

That was the most fun I have ever had at the footy!!!!!

If I'm dreaming, don't dare wake me.

Reading some of the reflections on here almost makes me feel as though I was there, so thanks everyone for allowing me to live vicariously through all of you.

It was euphoric! That'll stay with me a long time.

I've never been happier at the footy than when Bont blocked Hodge's handball and then found Dickson with a laser beam.

When Dicko kicked it, I was literally jumping for joy and high fiving strangers.

That was the moment for me.

That moment is my current highlight of 2016.

My 2015 moment was when Bont waltz out of the pack against North at Etihad late in the season.

Oh, for what its worth I started high fiving strangers mid way through the third.

I mentioned it on the match day thread, but on the AFEL website there's a clip of Picken's mark and run into the open goal.

Check it out, when they show the reverse angle there's 4 some bays of Dogs fans going absolutely bananas.

It's joyful to watch.

Re: Did we *+&lt;%^&lt; win????????

I shook hands with the young Collingwood supporter next to me (he was barracking for us), pulled the hat off the doggies supporter in front of me, swung my scarf all over everyone, hugged my two bearded boys... and that was before the siren. I entered the train swinging my scarf and the carriage filled up with non football people. I sat there for the hour in silence with my hands on my lap totally out of place with my environment, yearning for a fellow Bulldog supporter.
