Gee he looks like a mean bastard, we had a close up look at him as we were sitting behind the Carlton reserves bench.
Later on (at quarter time I think) he walked past and Bondi called out to him, “Hey Mr Davies!”, he looked at us and I shat myself, I thought he was going to kill us on the spot, then Bondi says “thanks for everything!”, he smiles and walks off, chuckling as he stores the images of Bondi, Sydney, and myself in his memory bank to be dealt with later…….
For those of you wondering how he could hear Bondi from the boundary line, during and afl match, at a pretty full stadium, when we were about ten row back, you’ve obviously never sat next to Bondi…..
It was a good moment. He looked…then a moment passed before he smiled…must be my funny looking head.
He has got a strange stare. Never forget that first look before the smile. Piercing.
Just as the players said at Sponsors night. He freaks them out expecting him to turn on them, but great guy.
He’s like that Head Master who walked by in the school yard, and all of the sudden you’d behave for that moment till he was gone. He has presence. Respect.
We are lucky to have him at the helm. I just know it. Scares me to say otherwise.
