Adelaide United win in Townsville

Up early and off to Townsville, its AFL grand final day. We check into the CP for 3 days, that’s nearly like a permanent home for us. After set up we head into the city for supplies. It’s a great game and St Kilda has plenty of chances to win but cannot finish off so Geelong end up winning. Lots of Hot Dog’s & Beers and the noise show from the Air show. We didn’t see any of the jets but we heard them, and with all that dust I’m not sure anyone down at the Strand saw much either.
It is a bit of a hazy morning and I have a sore head. It’s a quite day and this arvo we are going to Dairy Farmers Stadium home of the NQ Cowboys to watch the A-League between Adelaide United & North Queensland Fury.

It’s a 5 pm start and the dust haze is really noticeable at dusk. The Fury dominates the 1st half but cannot score and Adelaide is lucky it is 0-0 at half time. The second half is completely different with Adelaide far more attacking. Adelaide score with 20 minutes to go and now have to defend. They score again and win 2-0 a great result especially for us.
