Ha. I prefer to live in delusional hope than the alternative. Sure, the let down can be fairly strong, as it is unexpected, but the cool thing is that you get to repeat the delusion again the following year & ignore the past.
And one day, I will be able to smugly say âI knew we would win the flag this yearâ. Thatâs what I tell myself every year. And Iâm sticking with this narrative coz it makes me happy (until it is proven wrong). Going by the hysteria on here following two JLT games, you would think we had just missed the finals by % or something.
Which really proves the point that anything can happen when it comes to footy. And they did it without their main ruckman, an injured KP defender & a lack of âbig-bodiedâ mids that many bang on about on Blitz.
