[FONT="]STILL MONDAY 7TH JULY?. I THINK?[/FONT] [FONT="] I got given a pair of crutches for the time being, as there wasn?t any major damage done to it, I called Archie, and told him that his car was still here, so he better start running! I hopped into the car with Ryan as all of a sudden, as we drove out, a heap of bright flashes appeared, I cleared my eyes and realised it was some photographers, I told Ryan to rev it, as he did, he hit one of em, but kept driving, we got home and it was only about 3pm, so we went in and went straight to the Playstation 3, and chucked SmackDown Vs Raw 2008, he picked Teh Game, Triple H, and I picked Teh Heartbreak kid, Shawn Michaels, after about 40 minutes, we were both down to red and had a few real scuffles on the floor, as I missed some Sweet Chin Music and he pedigreed me, before pinning me and winning the match, we decided to have a game of FIFA 08, he went with the Scum of the World ? Man City, and I went with a real team ? Man Utd, 90odd game minutes later I?d walloped him 4-2 with the Tevez getting 2 and me, moved from Victory and not upgraded at all of course getting 2, him, moved from Roar, not downgraded of course, was? unfortunately injured after a unsuspicious tackle by me. He...he.[/FONT]
[FONT="]4 Hours later, and some Football Manager 08 online, 10 Man Utd vs Manc friendlies later, I?d won 6 he?d won 2 and we?d drawn 2, no Penalties in this one![/FONT] [FONT="]We moved to the lounge room, and set up some surround sound, and set up RAW 15th Anniversary DVD, on my awesome Plasma screen [/FONT]
[FONT="]Before it started though, there was a knock at the door, we both got up, and Ryan opened it up, were Jess was standing, ?F***!? I shouted out loud, before me and Ryan burst out laughing, as we straightened up, she punched Ryan in the ?jangalies? don?t cringe folks! At this point, I collapsed on the floor, ******* myself laughing, as she stormed inside, we helped each other up as I wiped my tears of laughter away and he, his tears of pure pain. I half hopped/stumbled into the lounge room, still chuckling, as Ryan?s eyes watered and his genitalia grew bigger than ever.[/FONT]
[FONT="]We found Jess in the kitchen, getting a glass of Vodka ?Hey, Damnit! That cost me money ya know!? shouted Ryan.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I whacked him over the head, ?What are you doing here Jess, other than to kick Ryan in the balls?? I said[/FONT]
[FONT="]?Well, I read your messages and I?m here to apologise..? she started to reply, before Ryan burst out laughing, as he said ?Stuff apologising, why don?t you just go down to the bedroom!? he completely cracked up at this point, before crawling over to the fridge, where he got a bottle of Coke, and went to get a glass before I told him to ?piss off into the lounge room?, he didn?t need a glass.[/FONT]
[FONT="]But before we could actually talk, Ryan fell into the kitchen, laughing again; I rolled my eyes at Jess, and hopped into the lounge room and got a couple of bean bags, before dumping them on the floor, and just plopping myself down.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I woke up, with an arm around Jess, I got up and got a drink from the fridge and walked back in, and flicked the TV on, and saw a replay of the Manchester United vs Chelsea Champions League match, it was in the 60th minutes, when Cristiano Ronaldo scored a screamer from 35 Yards out, to put Man U in front 3-2, as I watched vividly, even though I?d already watched it twice, I thought I heard Ryan (sleeping on the other couch) snort, but as I turned towards him, there was no signs of him being awake, Drogba thought that he might score again for Chelsea, but Edwin Van Der Sar, pulled out an amazing save, to keep Utd in the lead, and we won the Champions League and the Premiership![/FONT]
[FONT="]As I hoped back on the fold-out couch with Jess, and I hugged her, Ryan jumped on me, scaring the living dead of out me, I shot out of bed, and half ran half hopped after him, I finally cornered him, and jumped at him, I put down on the bed and DDT?d him into the mattress, as I was about to get him an a headlock, the light turned on and a whistle pierced the air, I gave Ryan a kick in the face and rolled off him, landing on a Playstation controller, Ryan then rolled onto me, and another controller, as we both writhed around in pain, we looked up and saw Jess, half laughing, half angry, and naked, except for some undies and a small top (*wolf whistle* I just noticed that Ryan had pink undies on, instead of boxers, better than the nude I suppose though?.. I still laughed at them though, as he ran off to get changed, I limped off to get some clothes on, as I wasn?t tired anymore, and Ryan and I, just played the Playstation, playing F12008, me as Massa and him as Koveilinnean, that Finnish guy.[/FONT]
[FONT="]We played each other, at the challenging Japanese circuit, were we bumped in the first chicane, and both had to pit, leaving us dead last, we took off, him slightly in front, at least till I gave him a wack and sent him into the wall at 300km/h, I laughed, but was soon cut short as I was black flagged, and disqualified, so we did a practice session, bashing everyone, before hitting each other and doing some car aerobatics.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Me and Ryan went down to Maccas, to have some breakfast while Jess, took 2 hours to get ready for god knows what, I had One of those lovely Egg and Bacon rolls, while Ryan had some salad rubbish, probably to match his undies?..[/FONT]
[FONT="]While Ryan went to training, I went down to St. Kilda Beach to have a swim, some of the players from my favourite AFL team, the Western Bulldogs were there, and I was lucky enough to meet some of them, The waves were high today, which meant what was meant to be a leisurely swim, turned into a huge struggle, I made it back, luckily, and dried myself off and went home, but on the way, I stopped at McDonalds and got myself a nice healthy meal, nuggets, fries and a coke, before driving home, and eating them, Melbourne were playing QLD today, but as my leg wasn?t in great shape, I wasn?t playing, but I went down as Ryan, was playing Gk today, not that you would of known there was a goalie, as he went down with an injury 10 minutes in, and joined me on the sidelines, watching, as he got checked up on, he?d landed awkwardly on his shin/knee, and was limping, the doctor checked it out, and sai it wasn?t to bad and just strapped up his knee, but told him that a weeks rest would do him some good. [/FONT]
After the drama of the "Kick to the head" incident Me and Tobie headed down to McDonald's were the Salad was of cause so that I'd be ok for training later on just so i can clear up misconceptions ().
I got the text just after i had started to get into my salad saying that we were training down at the near by Melbourne City ground. So I said to Tobie that i was going back to his house to get my stuff and go.
I decided to walk down to the ground because I was "saving the environment" I got there just in time for the 5 minute job around the oval, followed by a 2 hour weight session and finally a open drills like weaving in and out of cones penalty taking and what not before Frank pulled the group together to announce something.
"Right boys in an hour we will be playing Melbourne City." he stated "Who!?" someone shouted to a roar of laughs "Yes, Yes i hadn't heard of them either but still here is the team sheet," he continued saying the other guys names out on the sheet i was nervous because i didn't know whether i was going to play or not Until he said "Dunn your playing Goalkeeper!!" "What!!!!" I shouted "I'm not a goalkeeper, I'm a midfielder" I continued "Yes I know that i'm just seeing who can cover for other positions." He said clearly "Fair Enough."
After the talking to i was about to give Tobie a call to see if he wanted to come down and see us play but to my surprise he was already here. So we had a chat until Frank called us into the shed.
It was game time I was nervous about playing goalkeeper since i hadn't played since I was in High School. As I ran onto the pitch i nearly threw up because the atmosphere was surprisingly good.
I didn't get involved until about the 10th minute where i dove out into the air and made a wicked save but as i landed i knew something wasn't right firstly since i was on the ground and secondly because they had scored because i seemed to drop the ball when i fell.
I got carried off by the physios and after a quick examination said that my knee should be right for the game against the Victory. I decided to go out with the boys after the win, we went to a local night club were i met this nice chick her name was Emily i think she said that she was from Brisbane we exchanged numbers and i said goodbye to here.
I made my way back to Tobie's house and as soon as i opened the door i nearly fainted...
I heard the door open before a THUD! I walked over to the door to see Ryan on the floor! In front of him, was the chick from across the road that he?d hooked up with last night. I cracked up laughing as he quavered on the floor. I helped him up as he tried to explain why he hadn?t called or texted her, he fumbled around in his pockets looking for the phone number; he pulled it out and read it
?Sam ? 59263989 ? that one??
She nodded ?Look sorry, but I play soccer for Queensland Roar, and I had to play in a friendly against Tobie?s team today.? ?Well why was he here?? ?Because he took a knock in training and couldn?t play, and then he left early.? ?No I didn?t Pinch! Your full of it! They didn?t play today, he was with Tess, you know from down the road!? All I got was a slap for...err sticking up for Ryan. ?Yeah right, I knew they had a game today, but cause he?s a rookie I didn?t think he?d play.
We had just arrived in Wellington for the opening game of the A-League which saw us be drawn away with the Phoenix which i reckoned would be an nice opener against a team which i think might be the surprise packet for the season maybe scraping into a playoff position.
We were on the bus making our way to the hotel, I was going to be paired with the guy who i might be competing with for the striker position Tahj Minniecon who is only 19 himself i thought back to when i was staying with my "mate" Tobie and hoped it would be better than that speaking of Tobie i haven't spoken to him since i left i might send him a message later giving him luck for the game against Sydney he's going to need it... if he gets on the park.
Me and Tahj we're notified of a team dinner this tonight as we got to our room and that there will be no training today but a full day of training tomorrow starting at 8:30am and finishing at 6pm. Me and Tahj unpacked our stuff and began talking about our techniques at the striker position how we became to be into the position we're in now. Tahj seems like a nice guy and a person i hope would be a good friend in the future. We decided to go down to the park and have a kick around with the ball so we can get our skills back up to scratch before the first game he had some good shots but mine we're better of cause.
It looks like the striker spot will be more harder to get than i first thought but then again hopefully we will play 2 strikers up front.
