Jets rock...

Saturday was comeback day against ANU at Amaroo...

No frost or wind but conditions were slippery...I played on the half-forward line and somehow managed to kick the opening goal within 20-30 seconds!

ANU had beaten us twice previously but we were keen to turn that around...everyone really put in and we won 5.13-43 to 3.2-20...I finished with 2.6 (first ever double for me)...3 of the points were from snapshots on angles, another was on the run but the other 2 were from set shots (great kicks to me leading) which I should have nailed...

After a great rendition of the team song (some had never heard it before!), a bunch of us had lunch in Gungahlin before heading back to the ground (via the Reject Shop)...

Our assistant coach Matt was playing his 100th match and we wanted to make it special for him...we'd picked up some streamer pom poms and some horns (which, while small, sounded a little like vuvuzelas) from the Reject Shop...we cheered him onto the ground through his banner and every goal was greeted with much noise...even better the boys won...

A quick trip home to walk Hux and have a quick shower before picking up some of the girls as we headed to the post-match awards at the Civic Pub...a great night was had by all and the car was left in Civic overnight...

After the luxury of a sleep in, I ran into Civic via the bike paths to collect my car...
