Kwinana United vs. Whitford City
Kevin McLaughlin, also known as the Ginger Jesus, and apparently Carrot Top after this weekend, has once again single handedly lost the game for Kwinana. It doesn’t matter that he scores two goals, celebrates with the overly excited crowd and tells the referee where to go, a red card to match your hair is not what we needed. However, even with 9 men, and Glen Smith making up the numbers, it was still possible for Kwinana to dominate most of the game.
They showed great heart battling with a man down, with Dan Willars showing that he actually wasn’t adopted and is a son of Andy when he had someone stretchered off. After that though, everyone had to endure a verse of yet another Scholesy song: “Viva Dan Willars”. This was short lived when Willars was substituted for being unfit and lazy, but anyone could have told Ron that before the season started. On a positive note, Gamblor did make bail for the second half of the match, with Trevor ‘Tough Stickers’ Parker making way for the Stig. Also, Macca did prove that even with Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, mini-men can score with their head. This lead to a state of euphoria within the massive 20 strong crowd at Warrandyte Reserve as Kwinana came within one whole goal of the opposition, but it was when Christopher ‘Rats’ Ratkins went he went ‘easy’ on the Whitfords striker in the box, a simple hip and shoulder sending him flying off his feet. Cries for a penalty from the boys in Maroon, Llama head went crazy, but the man in blue (not black?) deemed that fair. In the end Kwinana just could not get over the line, losing 4-3. Thanks Kevin.
P.S. The Reserves got hammered. Maybe if the superstar himself, Doodie, hadn’t picked up an injury again, things could have gone very differently. But that doesn’t really need to be said, does it?
