Swans go to Freo








Well it was the first match of the season for the Swans, and we were on our way down to Fremantle Oval to watch it. Here's Sarah And Harrison all rugged up for our first night match, which was against the South Fremantle Bulldogs.














As we hit Fremantle we noticed a Ocean liner parked in the port, so we did a quick detour to have a little gander.... isn't it a friggin' ripper hay!










Then before we knew it we were at the famous Fremantle Oval gates, and ready for a beaut match against the side they reckon is gonna be in this years final. But because we were late to the ground (we missed the first quarter) the fella on the gate let us in without paying for yours truly, you little beauty a win already..... could be a good sign.











Here's the little Nevilles during the second quarter where the Swans were down by two points, but still playing a ripper match.










We sat in the stands for the third quarter as it started to rain, bugger but we did hit the lead by four points going into the final quarter. GO THE SWANS!




Bugger we lost in the last three mintues as the Bulldogs kicked the last two goals, the final score was
South Fremantle 15 14 104
Swan Districts.... 13 9 87

but it was a beaut time the kiddies always love a night match. I don't know if it's the footy atmosphere, the swans long tradition or the hotdogs that keeps the kiddies comming out to the matches. But each time seems to just get better..... yeah okay I know it's the hotdogs, but you just never know maybe deep down they might be a little black n' white spirit intreached inside there little souls..... Okay it's the hotdogs but you just never know hay!










Like this little black n' white swanie, missin' tooth and all!
