special entry today XD
why? you might asked cos today is the NRL GRAND FINAL!
i was doing my usual everyday stuff and once the clock hit 5 o'clock, i quickly ran to my remote and switched to channel 9 on my giant tv downstairs cos i didnt want to watch it on my small tv upstairs in my room. the game hadnt started yet which was cool. wow, the first 5 minutes of the game was intense. as the game went on it went un-intense, manly scored 2 tries in the first half (8 points on the scoreboard) while melbourne scored none which is unbelievable, they are such a good team and to have nothing on the scoreboard at half time is totally not them, after all they are the reining premiers.
2nd half of the match, manly kept the tries coming one after another which was awesome, if you ask me. what happened to melbourne? you might be thinking .. well they scored a big fat ZERO, jaws dropping. being a nrl supporter, you would expect melbourne to be in the lead but no no it was quite the opposite. you would think melbourne would make manly work hard for the title. all the newspapers were like 'history is against manly' , cos all the teams that played twice for grand finals (like in a row - manly vs melbourne 07 & 08 ) .. cos if a team won one year and next year they made it to the finals the following year , they would win. the only time this didnt happen was in , i dont remember the year , but it was against canberra raiders and penrith panthers, canberra won one year then penrith won it the next. the newspapers were like 'they didnt win last year, they may not win this year' & 'if they lose this year , they may never win again (in a long time) cos it would hurt too much' .. blah blah all this shit , i stuck with them last year when they lost and stuck with them this year and THEY WON IT !!! whoot, the score was 40-0 by the way. NIL i till ya, melbourne should of gotten (is that even a word ?) something a try, maybe we expect too much of them since they were last year's premiers.
moving on from footy .. oh no it's monday tomorrow , meaning i need to get to my studies ><" hsc is coming up in not so long , dammit and i was starting to enjoy my holidays as well. this may be my last blog until hsc is over, farwell X)
