Hawks Pip Blues in Thriller

Still feeling under the weather, I got the tram in to the MCG for my return to footy, after two weeks off. Getting to our designated seats just as Roughie evened up the goal count on the scoreboard, the sun was shining, but the wind was freezing!

With Melissa interstate, Jenny, and Dan came and joined Mum and I at our seats, for a thrilling game. All swine flu-ey, I must admit that I may not have taken in the full force of the enjoyment and excitement of the 8 goal shoot out between Roughead and Fevola at the other end. 9 it should have been, as Fev's last kick in the last minutes shaving the post...giving the Hawks an 8 point win. Heart stopping stuff! Love it!

Walking back into town, I meet up with Fiona and Dave, in town from Darwin for a weekend of footy. As they were licking their wounds from our match, the replay allowed punters at Transport to live the last quarter all over again.

The mini reunion group of Flaggers then made our way to meet Garry and his family, for dinner in Chinatown at Yuriya Teppanyaki Restaurant. Massive feed! Was so lovely to catch up with Fi and Dave, and Kim, Meggsy, and Nev, and Garry.
