Politics and Football
Two things prevailed in the Hawkesbury this weekend, disgruntled voters and angina. While swinging voters began to stop swinging the Nor-West Jets were doing everything possible to stop the hearts of their captains and coach. A miserable first half saw the coach kicking chairs, while one half of the captaincy duo (the goal umpire at the time), defected and started awarding goals every time the opposition had a shot. Finally (well after the coach had given up) the jets did what the dragon should have done years ago, they finished that prick St George off.
But as the adrenalin slowed, and more donkey votes dropped, the poor blue and white had to go through further heart murmurs as the Goannas failed to make light work of an unstacked Sydney Uni. Some members of the leadership group were voiceless (it is unclear if this was the result of too much tobacco or abuse of everyone’s favourite man in orange, Harvey) by the time Parramatta disposed of the limp bachelors. But with the Jets in the finals the day ended on a light note as the Parramatta coach offered his Nor-West counterpoint the Privilege of singing the Goanna song in celebration. Fortunately one of the captains recovered sufficiently from voicelessness saving the foolish coach from the clutches evil by shouting “Ha, not f***ing likely, see you next week”. Unfortunately, this is probably what the Australian Electoral Commission will be saying shortly.
