ew off seasons

Yeah, off-seasons suck and everything, so after losing to Port and the Week From Hell, here's some events to look forward to:

• me and Daisy's wedding
• the All-Australian awards where Pendlebury and Swanny are rovers/centre positions and Trav full/half forwards roles
• JAMIE ELLIOTT MARK OF THE YEAR
• Daisy signing his ten-year contract for Collingwood so we never ever have to deal with this awful "will he or won't he" again (except when the ten year ends and he signs another one)
• Pendles winning his first Brownlow
• Trade Week, holding our collective breaths for 3 weeks hoping that no Collingwood players are traded
• Trade Week, hoping we get some superstars 
• Nat Fyfe adorably accepting his Norm Smith medal
• Nat Fyfe also adorably accepting his premiership medal
• me crying at the above two events
• The Draft where we add to our epic talent
• The boys going to Utah/Arizona/etc and seeing their abs and other gorgeous body parts
• Seeing photos of the boys in Utah/Arizona/etc especially Tooves and Daisy and Faz getting stronger and less injured 
• Copeland Trophy, when Faz invites me along as his wifey
• Pendles and Swanny and Trav winning the Copeland in a three way tie
• Josh Thomas getting in the Top 5 in the Copeland (shoosh, it MIGHT happen)
• Josh Thomas getting Best First Year Player (is he even eligible, i don't even know)
• Alex Fasolo out-doing his last year's Grand Final Footy Show Revue performance 
• Caolan Mooney winning the Half Time Sprint at the GF
• Bucks realising he made a mistake and putting Didak and Jolly back on our list
• Daisy dumping his new girlfriend and standing outside my window with a boombox
• Swanny inviting me to Amsterdam
• CATCHING FIRE
• the Rookie Draft where we get more Kyle Martins and Adam Oxleys and make our VFL team win more games

and yeah

good times

So, we lost in the last game of the season.
But hey, unlike North, at least we have finals.
Too bad we couldn't get that coleman medal for Trav. Sigh.
Also yeah, if Hawks beat Sydney, and Geelong beat Freo, then our first three weeks of finals are against teams we couldn't beat earlier this year. But that's okay, history is useless, we'll beat 'em in the very very near future.

Hey, Bucks, time for a list:

• 1 x rule book for the umpires b/c really, the stuff they pulled out of the hat on Sunday was like um okay then, whatever.
• 1 x Clinton Young 
• 1 x Luke Ball (stupid North running free after the centre bounce like how on earth do we stop that...)
• 1 x prayer circle that Nathan J Brown is ready to give 110% next week
• 1 x Mitch Brown, just in case
• 3 x Collingwood players in the 2013 All Australian team
• 7 x chocolate cakes for Alex Fasolo
• 1 x nice holiday to Fiji for Daisy and his real girlfriend (me)
• 1 x wedding for me and Daisy
• 1 x Brownlow medal for Scott Pendlebury
• 1 x car for Jamie Elliott's Mark/s of the Year (get stuffed, Matty Wade's cousin)
• 1 x car for Didak or Beamsy to win Goal of the Year
• 1 x Rising Star medal for Marley
• 10 x award for our Rising Star who is much better than Jaegar O'bloodymeara but just happens to be 22 this year like ugh (ily Josh)
• 1 x letter in an envelope filled to the brim of anthrax sent to Kochie's house
• 1 x ban for any player in the finals who took peptides last year
• 1 x Harry O
• 2 x Didak

And look, it's me in the cartoon this week OH GOD I ALWAYS STAND FOREVER IN A 7/11 OR IN FRONT OF A VENDING MACHINE LIKE WHAT THE HELL HOW DO I CHOOSE WHICH ONE TO GET, ALSO VENDING MACHINES ARE BLOODY EXPENSIVE SO I CAN ONLY HAVE ONE ITEM AND I CAN'T CHOOSE HALP.

In other news, yes Bucks it's easy, just follow the list.
Also, in: Luke Ball, Harry O, Jamie/Sinclair, maybe Jolly & Young
out: Q-stick, BenKen (sorry kiddo, come back next year), ummm idek maybe Josh or Seedsy, but that's only if Young and Jamie are 110% fit b/c finals experience > no finals experience? idk idk okay maybe Bucks' job is harder than I thought. Sigh.
