Let the Canberra season begin

Until you've shivered on a grassless frozen tundra in a t-shirt at 9.00am as a six year old ,

or fallen heavily on a slippery concrete cricket pitch trying to take a throw in,

or felt the hug of your dad on the sideline,

or waited motionless in Casualty,

or chased a ball down a concrete culvert,

or tried to raise money by selling thin air to the same people you sold it to last weekend... you can't appreciate the spirit of Canberra football.
