Joshua Excells at AFL


Last weekend Joshua began AusKick - the junior clubs sponsored by the AFL. He's never played aussie rules before. He's played a bit of soccer, and is doing gymnastics but he wanted to have a go at AFL. As you do with little ones (7yrs) you let them try out things in the hope they may find something they really love.
Today is Joshua's first real game. Today he puts on his club colours for the first time ever....and walks out on the the footie field for the first time ever.

However, this is not just any footie field.............IT'S THE MCG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep! Joshua's first ever game of AFL football takes him right to the hallowed ground of the famous MCG. The half time junior competitions that play when the big boys are in getting told off by their coaches. I think it's Collingwood playing today.
Talk about being an excited little boy. He's convinced we are going to see him on TV....but I don't think they show the little ones out there at half time....which is such a shame.

So in one foul sweep he has eclipsed the efforts of his Dad, Uncle, Grandfather and Great-Grandfather.

I just found it hillarious......good for you Josh!!!!
