Enemy territory
The year was 1977, and I was in Primary School in Richmond. My teacher put 4 teams on the board: Richmond, Hawthorn, Carlton and Collingwood and said, to pick one. Everyone chose the Tigers as expected. I knew following the Magpies I would stand out from the crowd. It was the best decision I made, to join a passionate one-eyed group of fans. I influenced my parents, one cousin and my pets! We were Magpies living in enemy territory, especially in 1980! It's been a journey... and I still have my cherished scarf from that time! GO PIES!
