puppies in need of more training and the ladder changes yet again...

good morning viewers from a bleak and freezing, rain soaked adelaide day. glad to see we escaped injury free team wise but not supporter wise boo hoo...guess who has the dreaded flu? but hey nothing that a bit of warm water and lemon won't cure (and of course a shot of brandy) which was recommended to me by a nursing friend. and seriously i consider myself fortunate and blessed with general good health after watching sunday night. did you see shining for sharn? if you didn't please google it, watch it and if you can, donate. talk about waterworks, made me cry but also really touched my emotions, such wonderful friendship, enduring love and inspiration. i also managed to watch some 60 mins too which also had a moving story of the families whose children are affected by a rare metabolic disorder...sanfilippo syndrome. they have taken action and have raised money for the first trials to hopefully road test a cure ( that is the result of research in adelaide) or at the very least halt it in its tracks. another opportunity to donate and help if you can.
     well the doggies haven't learnt any new tricks and so it is back to training school for them. a quick start saw this young side get off to a 16 point lead. dare i say it but pittard's clanger resulted in a goal but hey he had a good solid game. perhaps we should start paying attention to what ken sees which is pace, left footed and some great accuracy. thankful it didn't rain, the lady army regrouped with the addition of lindi lou lou but we missed a few others due to illness.( get better feralina and son) personally i was suffering the onset of the flu and had wished i had gone to the chemist for some throat lozenges to ease my sore throat. and so my yelling capacity was severely reduced but not my dance moves viewers. yes call me the dance cam queen. i managed with a bit of ass slapping and some fun moves to score a one hundred dollar voucher from spartan electrical. yes new radio for the kitchen!!! woo hoo!!! hvala spartan.
     glad to see wolfman kick a nice bag of goals and to be playing with confidence. thought ollie wines was outstanding and of course sarge, what a legend. overall a very solid win and another victory to keep the portress record intact. went to the post match wrap up. we saw the players make their way through the crowd. congratulated aaron young, tall and a cutie. listened to kochie, ken and the highlight SCHULZY. just awesome to be surrounded by people who have one thing in common...passion for the POWER. 
     well the ladder has changed folks. knew suns would challenge the pussycats but wasn't expecting such a convincing victory. freo took the roar out of the lions and have regained a top four spot. the roos and crows continue to follow the formula of win one week lose the next. honestly WTF adelaide? with such an important game on the line and the perfect opportunity to string back to back wins and get closer to a spot in the eight, you simply blew it by trying to play catch up footy. and i won't go on too much about the showdown folks but from my observations of the last quarter adelaide does not look fit enough. and if that is the case i predict after a tight first half port may just run over the top of them. i don't normally go to the opposition showdown. i did try to get tickets but of course too late, sold out. so if anyone has any they would like to pass my way, please do so, the lady army will certainly appreciate it!
     and for those of us who cannot attend the game. the club announced it will be hosting the showdown at memorial drive with big screens. first in, best dressed with a capacity of about 2000. thinking ahead as usual the club would like to fill memorial drive so that we can all make a noise from outside the stadium. they are certainly getting it right this year.
so back to bed for me, keep well viewers. we are in for a big week of hype, coz it's SHOWDOWN time!!!
love FFFand F XXX
PS sorry about the brownies lady army...next time i will remember to bring them...they were YUM, hee,hee.
