lucky jocks, lucky rock...what a round!!!

farewell Dom...

the dice had been thrown. lucky double for port. roos defeated, freo smashed. who on earth would have seen the freo flogging coming? not me viewers. and how stressful was it for son number two might i add. OMG had to take him home at half time because he was having a complete meltdown. not enjoyable freo, not enjoyable one bit. but hey have to give credit to the saints. that performance was awesome and what a fine effort to honour lenny hayes. i tell ya this was panning out to be the cursed round and a tipsters nightmare. the fact the roos lost well what can one expect from them? most frustrating and disappointing side in the comp. how they win at times defies belief because on paper they are not drowning in a sea of talent.

      i must say the pressure was certainly on. would the curse continue? i bet some were feeling nervous. all i can say it was a golden opportunity for port to grab the footy beast by the horns and kick it out of the oval. midway through the second quarter that is exactly what it looked like. 30 point lead it seemed we were on a run and on our way to a percentage boosting win which would see port reclaim a spot in the four. but alas two quick goals before half time which was just the beginning of a demonic inspired comeback that almost spoilt it. 

      not a pretty game to watch folks. so many mistakes, rubbish umpiring that left one confused with what is holding the ball FFS? little sista freaking out. all i can say is that it is lucky for us the kids weren't sitting next to us. i reckon she is due at least a hundred hail mary's...no make that 1000 for the expletives firing from her mouth. shame on you. i think i am going to have to revise the lady army membership rules. in the end one way or another we scrapped and fought our way back to a desperate win in the last two minutes of the game. i said...schulzy has to save us and he did, allelujah footy gods and one has to be grateful for a win even if it was ugly. and thank goodness the boys got over the line for Dom. he certainly deserved to go out on a win, perhaps not a blaze of glory but a win nonetheless. it was a big day, Dom's farewell game, my nieces 12th birthday, having to get home and get ready for a feast to celebrate with friends...blah,blah,blah.

      and still the doubt remains. a media cloud hanging over port's head. personally i will maintain my own opinion and  will make an effort to get on talk back radio this week, hee,hee. 

PS i did make the effort to wear my lucky jocks to the game, teal bonds hipsters. as i put them on getting ready i thought to myself these will be my lucky jocks, hee,hee. we were also given the lucky rock by a lady army member who was unable to join us. so lucky jocks/lucky rock...four points thankyou very much we wil take them.

have a groovy week viewers,

love FFFandF XXX
