12 goals clear
Krakouer kicks the last
on impulse
spring petals —
Cloke plucks one
close to home
Sandilands jumps —
the splintered pack releases
the goal sneak
the many paths life takes us peppering the goals
Swan sets off everyone left behind
winter’s end —
the slow turn
of the ruckman
talk of returning home —
a new twist
in Leon’s tale?
