On Friday night we trained with the other Bullcreek team because they were low on numbers. It went quite well and everyone got along better than I expected. We didn't train that hard, but skills were pretty good.
Our team can't make the finals so we are aiming to destroy some other teams finals hopes. On the weekend we played Willeton who are potentially a top 4 team, so we wanted to get a win on them. This is the team my old team beat in the grand final last year, so I personally had a few people that I was keen to take out. I got into a few little fights which was fun, but I didn't want to do anything to serious, because I didn't want to be suspended for the last 2 games of the season..
Everyone was going hard at the ball and playing pretty well, but we weren't playing to our full potential I don't think. We ended up losing the game by 2 goals, and were pretty happy with our efforts against a top side.
I took a few of the best marks I have ever taken in my life in that game. I literally got a guy in a headlock with my legs in one of them, and hurt him bad when he hit the ground awkwardly. The crowd went crazy with every mark I took, plus I had my own little fan base:) It was probably one of the best games I had ever played, and supposedly I got best on ground, which is a great feeling. Even though we lost, I went off the ground with my head held high, happy with the way our team had played today.
No one was truly upset about the loss, because we had nothing to lose. We cannot make the finals from the position we're in now. We have 2 more games to go, and they are against 2 of the top teams in the league. We will hopefully get a win against one of them, but the other will be very tough.
Thanks for listening,
Talk soon.
This is what I should be doing for my blog because I need to get fit for Summer! It's such a great idea!:) It's a shame that your team can't make it into the finals but there's always next year!:) Congratulations on getting best on ground! Goodluck with the intra-school carnival and I hope that you get into inter-school!:)
