We have a won a grand final and words can't describe the feelings of relief and jubilation.
It's time to soak up well deserved success and celebrate with our supporters that have played such a significant part in this triumph.
But we have some special talents in this Magpies playing list that can comfortably take us to more success.
After the draw last week, the boys rallied together on Sunday.
We spoke about not dwelling on having a draw, but focusing on the week ahead and the amazing opportunity we had to do better.
Training throughout the week was spot on and relaxed. I could tell on Monday that the boys were getting excited about having another crack at it.
We knew after last week's game that we did a lot right and there were a few things that needed improvement.
We knew as a team that if we could work on those areas, we would smash them.
All that our captain Nick Maxwell asked of us was to try not to do anything special, but just for each of us to concentrate on playing our role for the whole four quarters, which we did.
We knew by the way we started and by the pressure we applied to St Kilda that we were going to have a good day.
As was the case with last week, I am struggling to pick out individual players as it really was a team effort that won us the grand final.
Steele Sidebottom, Nathan Brown, Luke Ball and Dale Thomas were among our better players.
Scott Pendlebury's game was a fantastic effort and he is a deserved North Smith medallist.
What an amazing feeling, to go through all that we did last week and work so hard for it once again.
As a playing group we really set out what we wanted to achieve this season and the brand of footy we displayed all year helped us towards the ultimate reward.
Our supporters have been phenomenal.
I'll never forget the support that they have shown throughout this finals campaign and the entire season.
Of course we will be soaking up this win for a while yet.
