I've found the year very hard to enjoy to be honest.
- The endless Swans bashing from peanuts like Eddie, Dermie and the new kid who wants to be in their silly club (Meathead Brown).
- The lacklustre leadership and arrogance of Gill the Dill
- The general insularity and selfishness of the Melbourne Mafia
- The unspeakable tragedy of Phil Walsh
- The never ending James Hird Show - can this narcissistic @@@@@ please be banished from AFL for a long time
- The ever worsening car crash that is Queensland Football
- The shameful booing of one of our great Australians that has seen me lose friendships over given how strongly I feel about it
- The sadness and uncertainty over Buddy
September is normally my favourite month of the year but I have not enjoyed the finals at all the year and not just because we wen out in straight sets
At the moment I really don't feel like watching football for a long time. Indeed if the Hawks are in the GF I won't be turning it on for the first time in over 30 years. A WA derby would whet my appetite somewhat but how could I feel any joy for a club who had booed a hero of mine so mercilessly over the colour of his skin.
The only real positive for me was Isaac Heeney, what a joy to watch....
I guess I'll hang in here until trade week but I look forward to not thinking about football for a while
