Penrith would probs be my 2nd team so you're right, always had a soft spot for em
Used to go to the 1970's Easts V Many matches at the S.C.G.In fact,anyone who loved a good match-up that was played at the S.C.G.,you'd get a good turn up.
A carton of piss from the Olympic Hotel used to cost $7 in those days. Then walk down to the Bradman Stand and watch all three grades underneath the concourse in front of the bars in case we ran out of beer.
Never forget the bloke out in the middle of the ground during half time in the main games.
He used to wear a full Rooster costume. He would walk around the middle of the ground,every now and then with one leg semi-crooked, and his beak looking down at the ground as if he was looking for worms.
We would be pissed as newts by that time,and watching him was a good belly laugh.
1970's through the 80's at the S.C.G...Great football (and cricket) ,great memories.
