Bye, Bye, Baby

The Varnished Culture found themselves at a loose end on Sunday last!  Glenelg had the ‘bye’…Norwood also had the ‘bye’.

A sublime autumnal afternoon in Adelaide got us walking, walking, walking…we went past Peter Motley Oval (it used to be Unley Oval – and was re-named after a Sturt Great, who also tells the best jokes P has ever heard) and decided to see what the fuss was about.

The fuss was that Central Districts (The Bulldogs), a very good team, had shot-out to a four-goal lead and then gone to sleep.  The Double Blues came home with a wet sail and won by 21 points.  Well done Sturt!  L and P would applaud, except we both hate you!  Oh well – all the best…we love the oval though.  It is like a village common, and a great exemplar of local footy.
