Great reading everyone else's stories and different perspectives on the day. It's made my day at work today, so thanks guys
Actually, I didn't really notice the umpires during the match, there were a few decisions that pissed me off at the time, such as a couple of non-paid frees in the forward line (they missed an obvious one to Bird in the 4th quarter which should have been a mark or free) but I didn't dwell on them too much because I was too absorbed in the match. We won so who cares
Great photos as well bonz!
Actually, Stat, the last team to lose a grand final after leading at 3/4 time was St Kilda in 2009. But I felt a lot better going into the last quarter with the lead, regardless... though apparently it was the first time ever there had been a one-point margin at 3/4 time in a grand final. But one thing I learned this year was stats are just stats, they aren't always predictive of the future. [/end serious discussion]
But... I have to say... you nickname your dad's stepdaughter Birth Control?! #sadface Imagine the therapy bills when she gets older
Oh god the anger.... I don't think I had ever been this frustrated with umpires before...
