etc etc
was sickening listening to the vitriol towards our own players
i mentioned it elsewhere but highlight of the night was megan gale turning to the knob behind who had been abusing hampson for about 5 minutes straight when hammer marked and goaled - gave him the dirtiest look and said 'was that good enough for you' the moron was dumbfounded and yelled to his friends "oh my god is that megan gale.... i think thats megan gale - hahahaha" said loudly i better not say anything about hampson anymore
then continued to bag everyone else
you can see him in wookies video of the megan gale shot - clown in the jumper with the old monogram to the back right (thankfully im just off screen)
freo fans were generally good after the game, they are not enjoying ross lyon football at all - i was seated pretty far from them so was spared most of their crap thankfully during the game, they were better behaved than eagles fans though.
subiaco oval is still a disgrace, was about 40 degrees up where we were sitting all crammed in like sardines - less legroom and width in the seats than the worse airline carrier you could ever imagine - seating at the mcg is about twice as wide and 1.5x the legroom
I saw that flog Grro. Unfortunately he has the same jumper that my daughter wears, I even pointed him out to her and gave her a history lesson on the monogram. I need to be more selective with my role models.
The crowd around me was pretty good, although we did lose some patience with Simmo just before he kicked that goal in the second.
