better late than never i say!!! true one week is a long time in footy and yes viewers shame on me or as us croats would say srum te bilo, majka boga!!! man i was convinced that freo would be hot on the trail for the holy footy grail but alas i was seriously mistaken. from the week before you would have thought that freo would have gone into the final as indisputable favourites. son number two was away vacationing in bali of all places, but rest asssured he was gonna be watching it with his dad. and rest assured there were going to be tears... and there were and a lot of sympathy too apparently viewers, but when you're a kid well even the most die hardened opposition would not be that cruel...there must be some code or violation for taunting a child whose team has lost the flag surely???
well we certainly got into the spirit of things in little adelaide town. as usual we were at my sisters for the traditional footy grandfinal barbie. and of course putting my culinary skills into overdrive i created some rather impressive looking mini baked cheesecakes with blueberries on top. these were to honour my fellow friends in wa who also happen to be freo supporters and were absolutely stoked with their team being there. i have to say fellow footy fans that watching the first quarter unfold i thought the roles had become completely reversed. hawthorn played freo's game and the pressure was relentless and yes freo did indeed succumb to finals nerves. outclassed, outplayed, inexperienced but 2014 will see if it has made them a better team. yes folks that about sums it up and by all accounts i found it to be a rather lack lustre game.
so until next season we will just have to wait and see what each draft brings, who goes where, who will coach who. love and laughter FFF XXX.
