David continued coaching one of Australia’s top AFL teams of the time, Carlton, through the 1990s. Applying innovative coaching techniques under Parkin, Carlton set a new record for an unbroken series of AFL winning games, culminating in Carlton winning the 1995 premiership.In 2000, despite lucrative offers to continue coaching and join the corporate world full-time, Davidreturnedtohisfirstpassion,theHawthornFootball Club, where he remained as Director of Football until 2002.

Look What The Boat Dragged Into CairnsWho hasn’t dreamed of a cruise ship vacationWhere you laze on the deck and forget your vocationYou relive the days of Gilligan’s Island and CastawayAnd think of pirates like Jack Sparrow or Captain Hook every dayBut what has the boat dragged in is the question to askWhen you consider Australia’s coast line is so vast There’s small pleasure craft to millionaire’s yachtsTo fishing boats and their crews emptying lobster potsImagine racing in the Sydney to Hobart: you’d be dead on your feetOr flash back to Captain Phillip as a sailor on the first fleetBig ships are the go, so try Disney Cruises for luckYou’ll meet Goofy, Mickey Mouse, Cinderella and Donald DuckAnd your thoughts turn to the fun on board a shipWhat about being a singer, or a dancer swinging those hipsThen there’s the Love Boat, a ship for its timeFull of people partying in safari suits sipping cask wineAnd working on Britannia, a ship we all admireDressed as one of the royal family, and dining in formal attireThink of other great ships and what they’re famous forThe Titanic and Costa Concordia were news at sea or even on shoreSo this year come dressed to spend the night on board a linerAt the Cairns Cruise Liner terminal the party couldn’t be finer
