"Can you smell the fear?", do the other football codes in Australia (AFL,NRL), genuinely fear football?

My Spirit link had nothing to do my CCM and Lawrie link - just happenstance.

I moved to Avoca in 2000 so naturally became a Mariner when the AL started. I met Lawrie when Mr Cleansheets came out in 2010, as I got permission to take a cover photo on the pitch at CCM for the book. I also got Lawrie to launch the book locally (at Avoca Surf Club), which was a huge farking night. We became friends after that and that's why he asked me to do his biography.

Interesting article, by the way. I already knew a fair bit about that from LM. His stories about how he and the players kept the ball rolling at the end of the Spirit days were harrowing to say the least.

No doubt - as I said local is local.
Great storey bout Mr.C mate also to get to know someone involved as such when the game is our passion after all.
Oh I imagine the launch night would have been tops !
Due to our geography my Italian ol man got behind the mariners, me and my sons would rib him greatly about this i disgust - worse when we used to go to the SFS to watch ADP v CCM - we'd give him heaps haha
