It is with great trepidation and possible regret that I raise this, but.......

Is there a Calendar Curse on our players!  😱

Like many here, I have a MFC calendar that I have displayed prominently, mainly to confirm in my own mind that I'm still in the land of the living.

Come January 1st, I opened the calendar to see Christian Salem.  Must have holidayed in Europe, I thought, as the snow that fell on his head had not yet melted. But worse was to come. That month it was disclosed his thyroid condition had flared and he would miss the start of the season. Bummer!

Move onto February (one month closer to the footy season 😃).  There's Bailey Fritsch. Our most reliable goalkicker. I feel a warm glow as I give him a knowing nod.  During the month it is revealed his foot has been stood on at training.  He will miss the start of the season! 

The shortest month finishes - hesitantly I turn the page.......LUKE JACKSON!!!!!!!

I want March to finish!  Finally, it does, but......April Fools day 😵   Flip.  Ben Brown.  That's OK I think. He's been resonably fit (for him) and in good form in training, nothing to worry about.  April 2nd vs Swans. Ben gets subbed out, sore back, misses next match - at least!

I now have a dilemma. Do I burn the calender now and literally don't know what day it is, confirming my wife's belief, or do I bravely sneak a look at next month......

PETRACCA!!!!!!  😩   

Burn baby, burn.......

 

 

Not sure the laugh emoji is the right response, but you did make me chuckle.
