Eade and Eid both have thinking to do.

I hate year twelve. All these expectations, all the pressure and worse all these things we need to know about. Like specific instructions that you must complete form 132, if you are eligible in sections A, B AND G if you want to do this course at this Uni, under these prerequisites, do not help [Read more]

Not happy Mick!!!

Danni Eid apologizes to her fans for not providing a match report for the Hawks vs. Pies game. While she took notes and was intending on writing one up, her mood took a swing for the worse and her feelings of disgust towards Malthouse’s selection heightened which caused this decision. She had taken to venting [Read more]

Magpies scrape win as Danni dominates dancefloor

Every Thursday I have that same after school routine. As soon as it hits 5:00pm I drop the newly started homework, get onto the Collingwood website to see the team selection and I hold my breath. *pages loads* I look up and the selection section of the website catches my eye and there he is….

Bets, Seatbelts and September rainbows.

I remember once making a bet in year 6 for the Collingwood v Essendon game. My mate Sam was a Bomber; he was also a left hander. I remember the nudge fights we’d have when our elbows would smack. You see, I was the right hander sitting on the left and he was the left [Read more]

Pies psychology barrier broken by high pitched squealing

When the Pies face the Cats, you always know it’s going to be a ripper. There are a few similarities between there two great teams. They both have stripes, they are both playing very well at the moment, they have the superstar ‘untagables’ in Gazza and Swanny and according to Tom Harley; Collingwood is ‘ominously [Read more]

Karma Curses Carlton

“Arrghhhh F*cking Collingwood!!!! OH-MY GOSHH LIKE I sweeear Carlton better f*cking win this time! F*cking Collingwood are on top of the laddaaahh…”  Ahh, what a great start to my Monday morning. This is exactly what I want to hear. Not one to normally take a cheap shot like that I decide to let it go, [Read more]

AFL team by team PRETTY LIST 2010! How HOT is your team?

WHO IS THE PRETTYEST TEAM OF THEM ALL? SENIOR LISTED PLAYERS Last year I sat down and made a pretty list with the top 21 AFL players who could easily make some extra money on the side doing modeling. Tiger Ben Cousins was listed as number one and his photo shoot for GQ magazine showed [Read more]

Tiger roar turns ‘meow’

No matter how much you wish you could, you can’t deny that my Magpies are looking smokin’ hot right now. Now I know all you non- Collingwood supporters hyperventilate or break a sweat when you see us on the top of the ladder but admit it, the way the boys are playing they deserve it. [Read more]

Saints Loss leads to heavenly love

“Girls, you do know that you can have your heart broken without being in love don’t you?”- asked my History teacher yesterday during period five. “Yep, Defiantly” I respond, nodding my head and thinking back to the Pies Vs Lions Grand final losses. In the past few years we and have not been able to [Read more]

Pouting pushes Pies to victory.

SIREN, the first quarter ends. Collingwood- 1                  Port Adelaide- 33 I don’t need this, I REALLY don’t need this. I’m sick, I’m sore, I’m tired and I had a dizzy spill this morning. I refuse to go back to the doctors despite mums pleas and constant- “Danni, listen to me and let me take you [Read more]

Magpies make score board statement as Danni puts voice to paper

Apparently I have a throat infection; it’s that time of year when every one gets sick all the time. My throat feels scratched and I can’t last five minutes without having a coughing fit. In two days I’ve gone through three packets of Butter Menthols and I’m waking up crankier than normal, which trust me [Read more]

A romantic Black and White win in Sydney

I normally watch ‘Before the Game’ every week, but I never thought I’d run into a panel member. On my way out from the last Almanac Lunch I was walking out through the main bar where I spotted Mick Malloy. At first I was a bit confused, I thought I had was mistaken, but when [Read more]

Danni knows how to pick ’em

I don’t like the ‘Footy Show’ and I hardly ever watch it. It’s stupid, immature and worst of all it has Sam Newman in it. To me it’s TV trash; I prefer watching ‘Before the Game.’ Although, when fellow Almanacer Susie told me that Mooney was on, I couldn’t resist. So I thought I’ll watch [Read more]

MICK’S FAV STUDENTS

In a way coaches are sort of like teachers. They mentor the players and take charge of the ‘classroom.’ They ‘use their outside voice’ and punish players who misbehave and they reward and motivate players who are doing well. Through supporting Collingwood for the many years, I have noticed something about Mick Malthouse. Now I’m [Read more]

Draws SUCK!

Rapunzel is DEAD. That’s right; I’ve chopped off my extremely long hair and for the first time ever, I’ve gone blonde. Well not really. LOL it’s really Blonde extensions in my newly dyed blue-black hair, and it’s all for Jack Anthony, you know he seems to have a thing for blondes. Monday morning comes and [Read more]

PIES VS CATS: I should have gone to the wedding party

You can learn many things in a week. On Monday, when I delivered my speech in front of the school at assembly I learnt that I would never be the next Prime Minister or put myself in that position again. On Thursday I learnt how spine chilling an atmosphere can be, when we went to [Read more]

Pies get one for the road

How slow does school drag on when you know your team is playing that night? I’ll you, it drags on forever, to top it all off I have a huge headache. Don’t stay up past midnight writing a lit essay; it will get to your head before bed and the next morning! I love Friday [Read more]

URGENT HELP SOS

Okay so I need your help! I’m getting myself a new pretty Collingwood jumper but I have no idea what number to go for. I don’t like big numbers like 34 or 38. I don’t like low numbers like 1-6. I can’t get Medders because he’s like twenty-eight years old which means he won’t be [Read more]

Year 12 camp brings kick to kick fun

I have just come back from my year 12 camp/retreat knowing that I won’t miss out on any footy. My business/homeroom teacher Mr.Rawley made that point clear during my parent teacher interview, he said “we’ll be back Friday afternoon so don’t worry she won’t miss out on any footy.” It would have been a complete [Read more]

Magpie win causes outbreak of Bieber Fever

Before the game even begins my dad manages to drown my hopes. Pendles had just kicked his first when dad walked in shook his head and let out a defeated sigh. Because of channel seven the game isn’t shown live. I REFUSE to check the scores or listen on the radio because I need to [Read more]
