Melbourne is awash with Eagles blue & yellow and Hawks brown & gold colours being worn with pride by their supports.
In Friday’s grand final parade our nephew, Jamie Cripps, was enjoying the moment as a West Coast Eagles player.
On game day, the family gathered for breakfast before making our way to the MCG.
With 98,633 spectators Jamie and Nic took in the atmosphere before the game.
Although not the outcome we wanted, our young team has had a very good season and I am sure they will be back next year with a better result.

Did wonder if you had made the pilgrimage! Better luck next year for your young guys! At least the weather would have made you leave like home. R X
Couldn’t resist coming over Robyn…sorry we didn’t have a chance to catch up.
Wonderful experience for you all and particularly for Jamie. Result not what you wanted but runing second is next best thing.
Love Heather and Tony.
Yes it has been a great season. Maybe next year!!!
Not a good result, but being there would have been half the fun! Jamie is very privileged to have such a large family following. Enjoy the trip back. Did you take the caravan across?
Great to see Jamie in the Grand Final. Making a slow trip home in the caravan.
