then it was a quick shower and change before packing the car with three sets of golf gear to play a social round with the Great White Koala and the Tiger...

I shot 89 off the stick while they had 116 and 115 respectively, not bad for players that don't get out on the course too often...

today

got to ANU early and found a cache I had DNF'd earlier in the week...much easier without many people around!

the conditions weren't too bad for the big match, the inaugural Pink Footy Cup...it was a festive atmosphere with the GWS Giants hosting their Auskick/Super clinic at the ground...they couldn't have timed their historic first win better!

we defeated ANU 11.12-78 to 0.0-0...it was good to keep them scoreless (they've scored a point against each of Ainslie and Riverina) but we were wasteful in front of goal with everyone crowding the forward line to try and score...I had a left foot snap for a behind and a long bomb touched on the line in the first quarter...

once the game was over, it was off to have Mother's Day lunch at Scope Cafe Mount Stromlo...mum had no idea where we were going and was following in the car behind, apparently she took three guesses to get it right!
