Day 233 - A friendly rivalry

As avid AFL watchers there is always one round in which Shane and I develop a friendly rivalry. Of course that is when Sydney play St Kilda. Today Shane and I took a little time out and drove to Sydney to watch Sydney play St Kilda. It was a lovely day in Sydney and I was very grateful that Sydney pulled off a miraculous 3rd Quarter turn around to win the match.
I snapped this photo of Ted Richards at the end of the game with my iPhone because I forgot to charge my camera.

Day 92 - The next great Barry Hall

Today my nephew Austin had his first game of AFL for the Queanbeyan Tigers. He looked very nervous in what was only going to be a trial game with his team. He had a great time running around, took a mark and kicked a goal. Like all great footballers, he spent time chasing his mates around the oval while the ball was at the other end.

The girls and I went along to watch Austin play, however, I am not sure who was more worn out Austin or myself after chasing the girls around the oval.

We look forward to watching him play again. Might have to make sure the girls are safely strapped into the pram to save me from running around after them.
