Oh yes all Nanna’s turned up to play on this night but not all Nanna’s made it to the starting blocks. There was a last minute scratching of the long awaited return of Jim-Bob. Whilst having a little kick downstairs waiting for the ever reliably late northside crew to turn up Jim when arse over tit and slammed his forearm into the ground.

Jim, not wanting to appear as much of a pussy as he actually is, and that goes for all the Nannas that didn’t sign up to Movember or even donate at this point, started the game with style but quickly took the bench when that pain became too much for him.

Our opposition came out all guns a blazing and that set the tempo for the game. Esperanza played much like the Nannas do but with a little more flare on the night. While they did give us 3 free shots at goals we didn’t manage to convert one of them. Their aggression should have been their downfall but alas the Nannas weren’t able to capitalise on this.

I guess we didn’t play too badly as I don’t remember being yelled at post game by the coach. So there’s a bonus. Overall I think the Nannas played reasonably well but could have taking the higher ground and controlled the ball a little more. Most of the time we lose the ball is with our constant need to move forward. If we just passed back a little more we might actually hang onto the ball.

And Kondo we actually have to play Esperanza again next week. If we stay on top of the ladder we will then have to play the team in fourth position. There is every chance we could play them in the finals but we will have to beat Gassius in round 11 and they beat us by 2 goals last time. Bring your best game Nannas as we are going to need it.
