Keeping a lid on it!
09/02/07 15:52
Good afternoon,
As a died-in-the-wool Essendon supporter (doh), at this time of the year it is very hard to keep a lid on the absolute excitement that the forthcoming season brings.
'Traditional' January / February stories abound. Everyone is 'training the house down', key players have 'never been fitter', skin folds are 'at a PB' and the draft choices are 'fitting in perfectly'. As always, Hirdy is looking great, cruising in second gear and having to be kept OFF the track, McPhee is delivering 'great rebound off half back', Courtney Johns is in for a big year, rookies are showing 'poise in heavy traffic', second year players 'are all showing positive signs', and Matthew Lloyd is whipping the supporters into a membership frenzy. Even Mark Bolton has received some positive press!
Roll on the first game. And I reject the perception that I am delusional!
Bye for now, BomberBoy
