After 4 seasons and 2 grand final losses our "just for fun" team finally won a grand final!
Not quite right feeling #1 - not having our 2 most passionate and committed players present (we won't mention that one of them is our esteemed captain!) but then again they did decide to go on holiday to a place much nicer than Melbourne at the moment.
Not quite right feeling #2 - one of our players going down with less than a minute to play and not being able to get up again and then the siren blows - bit of a lack lustre end to a one point win in a grand final!!
Not quite right feeling #3 - being the unco who fell over at the end of the game and couldn't play on to the end... but then again I could take credit for stalling the game so we didn't lose that one goal advantage!
We have an amazing team of mums who are 40+, mothers of lots of kids and mothers who have babies not even a year old, a great bunch of gals all round! Our line up has changed over the four seasons and this is the first season we have all played together... and we are playing "girls" of pretty much half our age. We have a great time every week and all should be very proud, I know I am!
