i love my blues...

and i'm not talking about being depressed or about the NSW rugby league team, or even Chelsea....no, i'm talking about my navy blues! yep carlton had a fabulous victory today against the tigers (who were celebrating 100 years in the VFL/AFL so were expected to win...) at the MCG...

wish i'd been there! my nephew was there - him and my sister rang me to sing the song at the end of the game! pretty stressful couple of hours with the blues starting badly - missing kicks, hand passes and generally not backing each other up...second quarter a little better, third quarter much better and the fourth a delight to watch! end result was a 30 point margin which was probably not a reflection of the entire game - but you get that on occasion...

and all this without juddy - which is disappointing for daniel as juddy has recently replaced fevvy as his favourite player and i know he was really looking forward to seeing him play. guess he did get to see nathan brown play (yep, tigers player who for some bizarre and obscure reason, daniel likes!)...anyway great signs for the young blues when they can win without the judd, and great for stevo to captain the side and get a very good win (not to mention a fabulous performance himself - probably carlton's best today altho there were many good players to choose from)...

sometimes you just gotta sit through the bad stuff and wait for the good times to roll - it's been a long time coming but i think we can say the blues are back in town!

da da da da da....
