Slab Head woke up on Draft Day as if it were any other day. At 7:00am his alarm went off, the sultry tones of Bill Withers echoing out into the hallway as his alarm roused him. Slab lifted his famous Head off his less famous pillow, and swung himself into a seated position.
Draft day he thought to himself finally we get to see what all this fuss is about
Slab then continued through his morning routine as if it were any other day. He showered, he had a shave, got dressed, and headed downstairs to the kitchen of his Manchester home. Slab Head wasn't sure what he fancied for breakfast on this fateful day. He was feeling hungry but the usual suspects really weren't peaking his interest. Then, when checking the cupboard he noticed some eggs, some butter and half a loaf of brioche bread.
Now I could murder some French toast he thought - he would come to realise quite how fitting this was later in the day.
Before Slab Head knew it, the day was gone and the Draft had arrived. Slab Head sat watching, feeling anxious for the first time he could remember.
The first pick - Aart De Trella (CD) - Slab Head couldn't help but feel disappointed, he'd hoped he'd done enough to go 1oa himself. He told himself he'd have to stay patient, and settled back down into the draft.
The second pick - Coin Flip (CD) - Slab jumped to his feet in applause. His academy CD partner, Slab was ecstatic to see his buddy go so high in the draft.
And then the phone rang:
UNIÃO SÃO PAULO/PARIS SELECT CENTRAL DEFENDER SLAB HEAD OUT OF SYDNEY CITY
