The Cats won it. A thriller until the final quarter, goal for goal, the lead changing 10 times, Collingwood fell away at the last as Geelong blew the score-board out to a 38 point victory. Certainly, a game where the final score didn’t give a fair indication of such a gripping encounter.

I was down at a local pub with a few mates and a few more beers watching the AFL Grand Final live on the big screen. Didn’t get the chance to watch the GF last year – we were finishing up a US tour before heading home in October. Gotta say, I missed it badly, doing my utmost to make up for it this year.

In the NRL Grand Final, Manly beat NZ Warriors pretty comfortably – so our housemate, Scotty will be stoked no doubt.

Spent the rest of the weekend working around the house. It’s great to be back in Melbourne. Taking a bit to get used to it, the concept of staying somewhere for longer than a month is a strange one to get our heads around.

Checkya later,
Fires out.
