In transit for the game. Could only follow intermittently. My gosh. That was stressful. My mouth was as dry as a cockys cage watching the minutes tick down with under a kick in it.
Congratulations to Vossy, the boys, and the support crew.
So glad for all of us to have got over the 'final hurdle' ?
Yes, that was harder than last week and that goaless last 18 min when less than a kick in front was bad enough. I was confident though because we were playing well during the game. This week though we struggled from the outset, dragged back 40pts, kicked like pricks when we could have stitched it up in the 3rd qtr, letting them back in, fell 13pts behind again half way through the last, got back in front then made tough work of holding on. I was more worried as we weren't playing well, unlike last week. Could see us finding a "Carlton way"to lose. Fortunately this is a different Carlton and we find ways to win ugly.
