The Elbow of Zachary Dawson
This is the story of Gentleman Zac
A man who knew not front from back
Who used his fist when marks were needed
And calls to 'Just kick it!' were never heeded.
During his childhood, while looking down,
Young Zachary, with a puzzled frown,
Noticed two objects on the floor,
and asked his mother "what are these for?'
His mother cried, 'Those are your feet!
- they must only be used to walk the street!.
When playing football, and here's the gist,
Only use your flying fist!'
But little did poor Zachary know
Of the future role of his right elbow.
Being the gentleman that Zachary was,
He developed strange habits during games, because,
Needing a break from the rolling maul
He would put aside the oval ball,
Don his smoking jacket, light a cigar,
or if there was time, drink a jar.
Unfortunately on Sunday he chose to rest,
in a spot that could hardly be called the best.
In an error of judgement, Zachary chose
to rest his elbow on Cameron's nose.
Zac realised he'd made a costly mistake,
thought 'maybe a fine or at most a week's break'.
But he'd not reckoned on the methods of the MRP
who use certain criteria for the Freo army.
They ignore the actions of Mitchell and Judd
or Gibson or Hodge or, many times, Bud.
But for Freo it's a case of throw away the key,
no matter that the crime does not match the penalty.
So briefly Zac has returned to the fold
to use his fists as in days of old
But sadly for two weeks we won't see the Fist,
because of his elbow, an ironic twist.
