    I really liked the fact that the game ended before I ran out of things to throw at the TV.

    Marra showed signs. Got to the right spot a few times. A few almost moments. His upside is still huge. He'll clunk a few soon and it'll be game on. Probably this week actually. Put him down for a 5er.

    Yes I think that dropped mark really curtailed what was shaping up to be a big game.

    This week as you say.

    Aside from the football which wasn’t much fun, I got to spend the evening at the G which I hadn’t done since before Covid, with my 11 yo daughter eating way to much chocolate and explaining to her for the hundredth time how you score the goals and points in the record.
    I got to see Ed Richards again (sigh), left halfway through the last quarter, listened to The Jayhawks “Rainy Day Music” on the way home, watched the second half of The Menu, read some of my book and went to bed.
    So again, aside from the football, pretty great night.
    And then the following morning my daughter, who was AT THE GAME, asked me who won. Sweet sweet oblivious

    Did you ask her to check the record to see who won?

    Only if Liam Jones can play and stop Zaine the forward.

    To be fair, we left before the end, so there was no final score in it.

    Great to spend time with your daughter at the footy. Cherish those moments as she grows into her teens

    Final Scoreline aside we were in the match for a loooong time. If we had kick accurately we would probably not have put ourselves under pressure despite the fact that a lot of what we wanted to didn't work.
