HIGHLIGHTS...
* The last 5 weeks. Sure its been a rollercoaster but the Adelaide, Essendon and Collingwood wins were emotional highs.
* The win v Hawthorn. Didnt mean much in the wash up of the season but at the time proved to me that our best was as good as anyones.
* Banger's farewell..sort of covered above but thought the Club organised the Round 21 game brilliantly.
*Raph Clarke. One of the genuine thrills I get from watching footy is seeing a player pilloried by his own fans show something. In the last few weeks raph has gone from whipping boy to one of the first picked. The only young'un to show anything on Sat night when the pressure really WAS on.
LOWLIGHTS..
* The first quarter v North at Carrara. The worst football we played all season by a long way. Even my faith in the new regime almost flatered. turned out to be a turning point in the season though
* Membership numbers. Genuinely dissapointing. Got off to a flyer then stalled very badly once the season proper started..on the back of a NAB Cup win!! Club must be very aggressive marketing in 09. Finals 4 out of the last 5 years..we cannot be the only Vic side to show a drop in Membership again.
* No Rising Star nomination. Not so much that we didnt get one. more that we really didnt deserve one. Saturday night...Rioli vs Armo/Eddy..nuff said.
Thats just a few off the top of my head. Lets hear some more
