Brilliant!
Wad ai hoot!
That snap is teriffic Travis. I just love it.
Although it is different it captures my imagination like one in Daff’s Local Footy Book where the boys are driving home after a game in WA with a big fat Roo on the bonnet to the fire.
I can smell the hairs burning and hear the fleas popping and hissing in the flames.
Ha ha.. Thanks phantom, I just really love the enthusiasm & pride on the players faces and the innocence they have in thinking 40 people in & on a troopie is appropriate behaviour after a premiership victory.. You can’t tell but the car is painted in dockers colours & has the owners favourite players highlighted..
It sums up the unbridled joy of winning a flag.
Credit too for the free Dockers who provide a fair bit of support for clubs prepared to make the sacrifices required to be seen in purple.
*Freo.
What a ripper. Such a beautiful photo – one of those definitely worth a thousand words.
