Through new eyes

When my daughter was a baby I would teach her every day to say "Magpies are winners" and now she is 24 and we go to every Melbourne game and some interstate games together . We go to special event nights to meet players together when possible. Thanks to my daughter growing up loving Collingwood as much as me , I am able to enjoy my love of football and the black and white all over again through new eyes.

Greengrocer's box

At age 7 my father took me to my first VFL game in 1960 against Melbourne at Victoria Park. I had to stand on a greengrocer's box to be able to see the action from the Yarra Falls end. Murray Weideman was captain and the Pies prevailed over the Demons and so began a lifelong love affair with the Pies. I'm now 73 and am proud to say my two sons and grandchildren have followed the family tradition.

Pies on VCR

My mum was a die hard fan and member of the club for over 20 years. She lived and supported through the painful years in the 70s/80s and believed that she was personally responsible for the Grand Final losses and a curse to the club, so she would tape the games on VCR and watch them later. I wasn't alive to see 1990 but I was alive and watching the 2010 AFL GF replay and my most vivid memory was telling my mum that she could come in and watch because the Pies were up by over 40 with only a few minutes to go. With a lot of hesitation and swearing, she came into the room and began to bawl her eyes out with happiness that they had done it. It is one of the great memories I have with my mum who passed away in 2014.
