by Darren Spence
Chicken Little likes to walk in the woods. She looks at the trees. She likes to smell the flowers. She likes to listen to the birds singing. One day while she was walking an acorn falls from a tree, and hits the top of her little head. “My, oh, my, the sky is falling. I must tell the lion about it” – says Chicken Little and begins to run. She runs and runs. By and by she meets the hen. ” Where are you going?” asks the hen. “Oh, Henny Penny, the sky is falling and I am going to the lion to tell him about it”. “How do you know it?” asks Henny Penny. “It head me on the head, so it must be so” says Chicken Little. ” Let me go with you!” says Henny Penny…….run run…… Read more

by Darren Spence
Well we are in June and the Dees and indeed myself are travelling far better than the same time last year (which is more than I can say for Wayne Campbell’s Bridgestone tyres – but more on that later). This time last year I was in a half body cast and the Demons were – well lets be honest here – one of the laughing stocks of the AFL.
