    New article - Guernsey presentation

    May 29, 2015. The Bloods have been afforded the privileged honour of kicking-off this year?s Indigenous Round. This proud club has a rich history of highly-skilled, hard-working and much-loved Indigenous heroes. From Elkin Riley of the 1950?s, to Abiana Davis who was drafted late last year, the Red & White faithful have adored and admired our Indigenous footballers. As we take on the Blues, thoughts of current and former favourites take hold. Tonight is a celebration. Helping to celebrate the contribution of our Aboriginal stars, is the aesthetic delight that is our Indigenous Guernsey. Designed by Lisa Sansbury, mother of our champion, Adam Goodes, it is a joy to behold. The boys love it, the fans love it. It also helps that the last time we wore the guernsey, we smacked the Cats by a hundred plus! I bet the likes of Troy Cook, Derek Kickett and Jamie Lawson would?ve loved


    Comments and feedback for Bron can be left here

    177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

      Fantastic report Bron. Look forward to the photo's.

      Aussie Ange, Tammy & I talked our way into the pub next door to the convention centre after the TOTC dinner.
      When we turned up it was empty and the chap at the door said "no closed to a private function" we told him where we had come from - they let us in!!!! Had the priveldge of meeting and having a great chat and laugh with Freddie Goldsmith, Bill Williams and their partners - such wonderful people - we are indeed very lucky to belong to such a great club. (oh I'm all misty eyed now!)

      And as for Gerard Healy - Oh BSMBH!!!!
      I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

        Bron - thanks for great reading. Did you take notes? How do you remember so much.

        I tried many times to come and find you after I found out the No table you were on. So many times I am sure the people on the surrounding table thought I was on.

        The last time I came up no ladies at the table - two up dancing one in black and one in printed mauveish dress. Any of those ladies you?
        The one in printed dress was up the front taking photos - so was that you?
        Love those Swans

              Do you really think it was just luck Bron? Or does someone at Driver Avenue know of your unrequited infatuation?

              Maybe you should interrogate your other half? Presidents do have some perks you know.

                Yep, I take notes. Everyone at the table always thinks I'm nuts! I was dancing for a while near the table. I was in a black dress with mauve floral ... and I was taking photos up front ... so I guess that was me!

                Sorry to have missed you.

                        There's a good chance that everyone in the world knows about my infatuation! I'm not so shy you know. We had to get Jude eventually, just a stroke of luck it will be THE BIG ONE! Actually, my luck has been in for the last month or so, so it was just fate.
