Blues fan and corporate slave Murray Anderson (31) has already begun emailing colleagues to inform them that he’ll see how he goes, but he’s a bit fluey.
“My head hurts a bit. Hope I’m not coming down with anything.”
In previous State of Origin series, Anderson has scheduled a fake dentist appointment on a Thursday morning, allowing himself some time to adjust before heading into work a little dusty from the night before. Anderson was unable to do the same this year as he is one of the millions of Australians who forgot game 2 is on a Sunday night for some reason.
“Yeah I forgot about that. My head is a bit foggy, I might need a Panadol or something.”
Savvy to his lacklustre work ethic, Anderson’s manager Jean claims to see right through her team members plan and in an exclusive interview with The Advocate Witcombe revealed that she will be requesting a doctors certificate if Anderson does not come in on Monday.
“I have no interest in rugbied league [sic],” stated Witcombe.
“But I will be watching the game too, and if Queensland win I’ll be satisfied Anderson will show up on Monday like he is paid to do.”
In response to his manager’s comments, Anderson claimed that if Queensland do win, it might coincide with him not being well enough to come in for the rest of the week.
More to come.
