Footy season
29 February 2004
Filed under Football, Life, Melbourne, Text
Over four years, I've gone from being a moderately interested observer of the trials and tribulations of the Geelong Football Club, to being an obsessive and passionate devotee of AFL [Australian Rules footy for un-initiates] in general. This year, even the pre-season comp has my heart rate up, as my beloved Cats begin to show tenacity and spirit and ball-skills not seen from them in recent times. I've sent off my membership form, in return for which loyalty I will spend 11 freezing afternoons in biting Melbourne wind, yelling myself hoarse. Whether I'm otherwise rewarded we will have to wait until September to find out.
