That One Day in September!
Those in far-flung corners of this globe may not realise the significance of tomorrow. That One Day in September. It's close to a holy day, the AFL Grand Final when virtually everything lives and breathes football. The fact that it coincides with the holiest day of all in the Jewish calendar (Yom Kippur) is purely coincidental (last time this happened was back in 1966, when St Kilda won their only flag).
Tomorrow, Brisbane Lions play Port Adelaide on the MCG. The game will be telecast around the world. Watch it if you can. This Brisbane side is probably the best Australian Rules football side any of us will see in our generation. They have won the past three premierships, and this will be their 4th in a row (a record). They also happen to be Gary's team (having ditched Collingwood, in one of his smarter moves).
My prediction? Brisbane by 42 points (unless it happens to be 142!!)
And enjoy Yom Kippur!
