Footy

Footy is the local sport round here. Not soccer, but footy. A whole cricket pitch is used for teams to run around after a rugby shaped ball in an attempt to get a clean kick so that the ball goes between the inner of the two sets of goal post. The game is in 4 quarters and lasts over 2 hours. Those of you who know my interest levels in sport will understand that for me to volunteer to go more than once to a sporting occasion must mean that it is good to watch. Also a little note for the Pie Eater, it seems compulsory to have a Four'N Twenty at a match.


This match is at the MCG and was really close with Carlton 101 to Hawthorn 106 in the dying moments of the match. And then Carlton get to kick for goal, if they get this they win the match. Check what happened next.
