Hi Everyone! A lot has happened since our last blog.

In International Cricket Australia won the first test against South Africa. Johnson bowled fantastically again. However in the second test Australia did not do so well, losing to South Africa. Michael Clarke is not batting well at the moment. A lot of the batsmen are getting out for low scores. Rogers set a good example with 107 runs, so did Warner with 66 runs in the second innings.

The good news is FOOTY IS BACK - even though it is the nab Cup. We barrack for Carlton and we are fanatical supporters. Carlton lost to Adelaide last night 99 to 61. It was not a great game of footy especially for Carlton. Daisy Thomas had a good game and we are excited about him being a Blue.

Richmond smashed Collingwood on the weekend by 48 points (8 goals), 124 to 76. This made my Mum and sister very happy. Especially after Melbourne beat them in Round 1 of the nab cup.

Right now Port Adelaide is beating Essendon 39 to 33, and it is half time.

BB (Big Brother) is going to the footy tomorrow night - Bulldogs versus Freo.

BB played basketball on the weekend and sadly lost by 6 points.

LB (Little Brother) played T20 cricket on the weekend. LB's partnership with LF (Little Friend) was 50 (LB got 34) to come from behind to win the match. LB hit six fours and an 8 (an 8 is when you hit it over the umpire to the boundary). That was the end of the season and we are undefeated.

Tomorrow LB is in the District School Swimming in the freestyle relay. Please wish me luck!!!!

Hello sports fans! I can't believe last night's results. I went to the Stars Hurricanes game and it was not a good one for the Stars. Hodge made a fantastic and quick 51 runs off around 35 balls. He and Muirhead and Hussey were the best players for the Stars and the only ones that I thought played at their usual standard. Malinga was very disappointing in the bowling, but got an exciting and close run out.

For the Hurricanes Tim Paine batted very well with 65 off 52. Boyce bowled really well with 3/11 off 3 overs. It was a shock for the Stars to lose their first game for the season, but the Hurricanes played really well.

Onto our own sport......Little Brother (LB) had his first match back at basketball - a close match but we lost 15-13. It was hot at the stadium. I played ok but no goals. LB also had T20 cricket on Saturday - I had a really great time, 40 runs off 2.3 overs, with two 4's. I got 2/0 over 2 overs when I bowled. I LOVE playing cricket. I like fast bowling, I try leg and off spin, but am just learning.

BB (Big Brother) had basketball training but no match last week. I am looking forward to the first match for the year on Saturday. Lucky its a morning match - it's going to be 40 degrees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For interschool sport I have been put into the Newcombe team. I missed out on cricket because there were too many people in the team!!! So I am now I am learning a new game. Oh well, at least I get first preference for the footy team next term. Can't wait for FOOTY!!!!!!!!
