Sorry we haven't blogged for a while. We have been super busy on holidays and at school but still doing loads of sport.

The big news today is BB (Big Brother) won his basketball grand final! The scores were 29 to 24. It was a very exciting game, the scores were level near the end but we managed to be ahead at the final siren.

In LB's last game for the basketball season we won  22 to 2. LB got 5 goals and it was my best match of the season.

Finally footy is back! We are not happy at Carlton's games so far. Dustin Martin got a goal in the last minute which won the game for the Tigers in our traditional grudge match. We are a split Carlton Richmond family so it is always a tough night for us.

On our holiday we went to the Richmond Gold Coast game. Gary Ablett and Brett Deledio had fantastic games. There was a bubble around Gary Ablett and he could do no wrong except kicking one out on the full. The ground was small but in good condition. It was fantastic that we could run on the ground after the match. We raced to the centre then got to kick the footy around. Unfortunately for our Tiger supporters in the family, Gold Coast won the match again. They have a good track record against Richmond.

LB (little brother) had a practice match for footy season last weekend. They won 82 to 0!!!!!!

BB also won his practice match by about 3 goals. We played a very good team, they were good at running and marking. We played well, and we have two new players.

LB is getting into his swimming. I had my first swimming race in squad and won my first event which was freestyle. My second event was breast stroke, I came third. And finally in butterfly I came second. I was nervous and was starving afterwards! It was good fun and I definitely want to do it again.

The World Cricket Cup starts tomorrow so we will report on that soon!

GO BLUES and AUSTRALIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Great to hear your good news BB and LB. You are doing very well. I was very happy with the Tiger's win but did feel sad for you two boys. I think Tigers have some work to do around finishing off their game. Maybe they are not fit enough.
