Don't know about you lot, but when the second half started and it started raining Melbourne goals, I started getting spooked and my game day superstitions kicked in big time.

First of all I'd lost my spot on the couch where I'd watched the first half and then I got to thinking it was the wife's fault - she didn't watch the first half and now here she was in front of the TV and in MY lucky spot.

By the time she moved they'd kicked a bag, but the rot didn't stop.

I put on the lucky tracksuit pants, gave the felt Freo turtle doorstop a quick vac, checked the toothpaste containers were facing the right way and settled in for a quick turn-around.

Of course, it didn't come. So what I want to know is, which one of you mongrels let the side down yesterday???
