overtime he would try to help but then the old man would get mad "your useless"

the old man is very bossy and docent care if your family only cares about fishing, they would go out all night and still not get anything, seas are very dangerous espechly when your drunk,

the old man was a city boy so the only thing he new was fishing,
"get the hock out off it before it tangles the line" - the old man said, bc black wasn't good with lines,
the old man is machine, some times fish would come back with just heads when they left just before the "wild wind" came though.

They went on the Meryl, a very old boat. It was a nice sunny day. They saw dolphin jumping out of the water. Team man and blacky have been waiting all day, there has been no fish the water has been dead. After waiting a while blacky team man and old man put their rods in, and within 2 minutes snappers were eating their bate. They were pulling fish in one by one. Blacky wanted to go home cause the storm is about to come. Blacky went to sleep. After he woke up there was big waves. It has been 6 hours and they still weren’t near the port. Eventually they got to the car. Old man said i never want you on my boat again.

12 - Blacky was walking with pickles, and then he left. He often went down to black rock. But he called it bum rock. He was speaking to his mum in the laundry about this Saturday’s big game. He asked if the old man is coming. She said I’m not sure.

13 - Blacky couldn’t sleep the night before grand final. He went into his mums room and asked if he could have a sleeping tablet she said go have a Milo. So he did.

Across the country, many individuals in australia have to keep their culture and connections strong so other outsiders dont language and traditional lands, while also contributing to the environmental management, economic development and cultural identity of our nation.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples hold distinctive rights as Australia’s First Peoples, set out in international law.

the old man is an alcoholic

he would do so much work that he wouldn't care about what he smelt like (even if it was slimy fish blood mixed with who knows what) he would just fall asleep.

"the old man is trying to kill us" this seams like he is a bad person, "i never want you on my boat again" "my own son ,my own fucking son" he felt ashamed from there he never went on that boat again or even went near it or ever saw it. all bc of his dad.

chapter 12 - thoughts

It was grand final day today, blacky woke up and the first thing he thought of was thumper. He wanted to beat thumper today. He went to the kitchen and ate a huge breakfast, snags, eggs and bacon. They arrived at the game at 2:00. Blacky and team man went and had a kick on the oval. It was time for them to go out, blacky ran out first. Wangaroo got off to a early lead, at quarter time it was pretty much all over. Blacky couldn’t win a tap out. Port finally got some goals on the board and at three quarter time it was down to a even ball game. 1 minute left on the clock, dumby marks to when the game for port. He gets ready to pop it in, then he passed it to 1 of the worst kids in the team. Blacky thought, we are going to lose. They got a point. It was all down to a 1v1 contest Blacky vs. thumper, thumper was running hard at blacky, blacky tried to move and thumper moved the same way. Blacky dropped and was concussed. Blacky woke up later on and arks was smiling, blacky said why are you smiling. He said we won the Grand Final. u stopped thumper from winning the game.

15 - Blacky kept asking his mum if he could go down to the pub with the rest of the town to celebrate the grand final win. Blackys mum said no until Finally she did say yes. Blacky got their and dumby came up to him. How are ya mate he said. Blacky replied not that good but ill be ok. Later on that night blacky meet up with Clarence and went out for a cigarette

Blacky went outside on a very nice night; it was a very clear night. He was thinking.. he saw Darcy, his neighbour sitting on the veranda. Darcy always wears the same clothes every day. He invited blacky over. Blacky went over there and Darcy was playing with some maggots. He would sell them. 50 in each bag. Blacky was talking to him about the game on Saturday, and he is still nervous about playing in the ruck.

9 - Blacky got a couple of fillings from the school dentist, she suggested that he goes and sees an orthodontist. Blacky’s teeth were and people used to make fun of him, the dentist said he will have good teeth if he gets this done.

10 - Mark arks asked blacky if he wanted to go to the oval. Blacky said no cause he was still sore from last night thumping the ball from he ruck. Blacky went down to the port, pickles was there. He was speaking to pickles, pickles is not good at footy, he smells and always sits on the bench every game. Only if they were winning by 20 goals he would go on for a run around

# data[].attributes.body
Blacky first meet Dumby red. Arks went and picked up some nungas from a small town half an hour away, to see if they were any good to play in the team. Dumby red was a skilful player. He sat next to blacky in the change room. Blacky was jealous of dumby’s skills and didn’t like him much. They had a game against tangarrata. Dumby red kicked 8 goals and passed allot. Blacky then started to like him. He was a good team player.

6 - Blacky got home, and his family were waiting dinner to be served. His dad was at the pub like every day. The only day his dad isn’t at the pub is on Sunday and Christmas day. Blacky went up to his room after tea and was thinking about the game. Thinking about playing in the ruck.

7 - Best team-man’s real name is Timothy. Timothy James Black. Everyone called him best team man. He played in the back pocket and was shorter than everyone else, but allot stronger. Last summer they went floating down to the island on the old man dinghy. The old man asked them why they went that far down and timothy said it was all my idea, just my idea.
