I went to the first game of the season on Thursday, Carlton vs Richmond... everyone was telling me how Carlton will THRASH the Tigs, blah blah.. i wasn't really 100% sure about that, unfortunately i believed it would be a close game, and well f**k it was!
i dont' think i have sworn as much before... at least at a footy game. and YES that is a lot. I sat in the members with mum so was surrounded by many Blues supporters, who actually drank and pissed a lot! Anyway... whilst i was sipping my water I had to watch Jack Riewoldt stand, catch and kick a goal so many times... i mean this guy must hate playing for a shit team. I hate him now, because his hair was pretty bad and because he was so good it annoyed me. Our mid fielders ran so hard, but it is a shame when we dont have a forward or a backline... i mean YES put out Tall guys up forward.. they can mark maybe 1 of 11... but THEN they cant kick... they may be in front of the goal.. but its like they don't know what a goal is... they found the goal posts well, but somehow managed to miss the two large ones and rarely kicked in the middle... dicks. I love my blues, have supported them all my life, but i was MORTIFIED at this lack of team engagement. The little fellas did their jobs, but the backline kept freaking out punching the air like that mattered, stumbling on top of players far too good for them to be matched on. Rat's i have to say man you really buggered it up, putting our backline players up forward and vice versa... i think it was a bit of bad coaching and i felt for the boys.
LOOK we all forgot to play the third quarter... don't know what happened, but thank F**K we won... it was seriously like winning a grand final... i think i aged a couple of years from going... it was hard work supporting a team that was a bit rubbish.
Game one down blues... at least we were on top of the ladder for one night! YIPEEEEEEE... next game.. bloody at the Gabba vs the Gold Coast Suns.. f**K. Welcome back to your footy people, its going to be a good season, i can feel it.
