Derm - September 7th, 2007
I got a surprise last night when i turned up at footy training. There was a dude out on the park that i didn’t recognise yelling at the boys. It’s not uncommon for old clubmen to come out of the woodwork as you get closer to a premiership. “Who is this big-shot ass-hole ring-in” i thought as i jogged a lap before joining in on the drills.
As i got a bit closer i realised that the big-shot ass-hole ring-in was none other than Dermott Brereton. As i realised this, i began giggling like a little girl at christmas. I was to make it my task of the night to at some point touch the great man.
The living legend took training and then hung around to give the boys a bit of a pep-talk before their 2nd Semi on Sunday.
A couple of years ago before we played in the Div 2 Grand Final and became Premiers we had a little visit from Dipper. So i suppose in a couple of weeks time we’ll get visit from Gary Ayres?
quite obviously ‘touching’ the Dermott
Mum will be very jealous. Go Hawks!
