Thank goodness for that!

Today Mum, Mark, Jac, Georgina and I went to the Round 1 NAB cup match at Aurora Stadium. It was a beautiful day for it, although the crowd didn't reflect that. One lucky guy won $4000 by being the NAB "face in the crowd" and winning $1000, kicking a super goal from outside 50m to double it, and then had it doubled again because he was already a NAB account holder! He was sitting a few rows in front of us. What a great day out although he was barracking for Melbourne, so you can't win them all!
Hawka strutting his stuff!
Action in the middle of the ground
Brad!!!
How we Hawks fans felt at the end on the game...
....and how the Demons fans felt - DEFLATED!!!
Despite the best efforts of the "Green Team " The Rabbits,
and losing Changa and Ozzie to injury,
The Hawks won in a nail biting finish!
0.11.3.69 - 1.8.9.66
Go the Mighty Hawks!
Season 2009 - here we come!

We have a less polite word for the "green team" here!!! They really don't seem to like the Hawks do they?

The weather was perfect, and the photos were great.

I was a little worried for you Hawks supporters at three quarter time, but that last 5 minutes of the game was pretty good.

McLaren especially hates the Hawks for some reason. But, even with him trying his hardest against the Hawks "WE still won"! What a great last quarter. Don't you love the "we" bit?

Woops, now we have to play Carlton - they think the might win!
