While it wasn't the best game of the final series, the A-League Grand Final certainly had a grandstand finish last Sunday.
Brisbane Roar's 2 goals in the last 3 minutes of extra time, took the game to 2-2 and into a penalty shootout, which they then went on to win 4-2. That also took their unbeaten run to an amazing 28 games.
The real highlight however, occurred before the match. Robbie Slater boldly tipped "A two-all draw with Brisbane winning the penalty shoot-out". This was followed by manic shrieks of laughter from co-panelist, Mark Bosnich, who promised to shave his head and run around the ground naked if it ended that way. Well, after consulting the police, the streak is apparently off but he is going to have Robbie Slater shave his head on 30-March, the hair being donated to a friend's children's alopecia charity.
Great tip, great bet!
One always has such high hopes when sitting down to write something, but in truth, all that springs to mind are the small oddities one encounters...Then again, maybe I've just become a grumpy middle-aged man!
