Thursday Night Football is a relatively new innovation for the footy this season. For the first 4 rounds, we get footy 5 nights a week. Yesterday was the start of Round 2. My team the Eels met up with one of their traditional Sydney rivals the Bulldogs.
My father is a St George supporter but hates the Bulldogs. The game itself was good - there was lots of tries in the first half and the Eels played better than expected but they lacked creativity in the second half and ran out of time and lost by 4 in the end. Whilst the result was disappointing the game wast too bad - it was competitive from start to finish and despite a few silly mistakes had you on the edge of your seat.
The last live game I saw was a fey years ago now. I saw it with my dad. It was a finals game between the Eels and the Bulldogs. Dogs were favourites that game too but Eels managed an upset and ended up at the Grand Final. At least the Eels one the game that mattered.
