St Kilda coach Grant Thomas had said the turmoil of rape allegations against two of his players would galvanise his team, and the Saints proved good to his word with a thumping win over Geelong tonight.

The re-match of the Wizard Cup final combatants promised a match as intriguing and close as that game, but instead the Saints overcame a slow start to flog Geelong 19.8 (122) to 9.7 (61) in AFL round one at the Telstra Dome. [more]

Saints do it again

Stephen MilneSt Kilda has opened the 2004 season in fine style, overcoming a slow start to belt Geelong by 61 points at Telstra Dome, 19.8 (122) to 9.7 (61). The Wizard Home Loans Cup premiers trailed by 19 points halfway through the opening quarter when they conceded the first three goals, and after recovering to within seven points at the first change, should have been at least three goals down again in the second.

Delightful Donut Snaps

I got some photos of the 430 dozen donuts and the wonderful ladies selling them at the local community fun day. Yummy, don't eat too many Moira

430 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts

A picture named 20040327_00023.jpg

I've just been down to the local school to greet the friendly Krispy Kreme van, and help unload 430 dozen donuts. That's a lot of donuts.

Today is local government election day, and the local school is one of the polling booths. As a fund raiser, the school is running a Family Fun day, and my wife Moira Arrigo is looking after the donut stand.

I'm at home looking after the kids.

Something seems wrong about that role reversal - but then again, I don't think I could be trusted with 430 dozen donuts.
