as a joke, when my daughter, now 5, was learning to speak, we taught her that the team in the blank & white jumper were the dirty magpies. My uncle is a one eyed Collingwood supporter & it was pretty funny hearing this litlle girl saying dirty magpies whenever prompted.

However, now she's nearly 6 & at school, she still refers to Collingwood as the dirty magpies.

i have a powder room dowstairs covered in Carlton stuff. At the end of each game, as sure as the sun sets, I walk into the powder room and put a star on the player that i think most deserved it. Once i put the star on i say well done and then proceed with life as usual. The star gets moved every week. I had an old poster on the wall which my lovely husband decided to place the star on Libba after the footy show. A few days later I noticed what he had done, i aslo saw a Vic Bitter label next to Fev. The abboud was very tense and i actually argued that he had disrespected my beliefs and that it was unacceptable.
I also am adamant that my beloved dog can say Carlton. I show anyone who i can what the dog can do. The looks i get are priceless, but i am sure he does it, no really he says Carlton.
