How did you select your team to support

[Generalzod]

My family were born in Mascot, so all but my grandma loved Souths.
Moved to South Hurstville. Then Mortdale/Pensy after i was born.
So could have gone for Souths or Dragons. But Grandma loved Cronulla.
So i chose Cronulla.

All teams have won only one each since ive been alive.

Great place Mascot

The best part about have family that supports opposition is it makes win against them that much more fun with banter.

Even better when you marry a dragons fan. Has been great fun over the years.

Having a son, mother in law and sister in law that are Sharks fans sucked in 2016 though.

I named my kid after a few Cowboys greats so he basically has zero choice on what team to barrack for.

Carl-Minto-Hegarty-Bani is a f**king sweet name........

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

I was awe struck watching France annihilate Australia in the 1951 Test series. I was so impressed that I wanted to follow a club that had a jersey that was close to the jersey of the French team. That club was the Eastern Suburbs Tricolours (now the Sydney Roosters).

I was thinking it needs more Moore.

Default choice in 1988 I guess.

I arrived in Oz in late 1995 and started watching League on TV in 96 and started taking a proper interest during the split Super League comp era

I narrowed my choice to three teams - my first requirement was that the team had to be utterly shit, so watching them made me miserable and on the verge of slitting my wrists. As a West Ham fan, this is normal behaviour.

Beyond that, dickhead fans and crap team song would also rate highly

I narrowed it down to three teams - Souths, Cronulla and Easts (in retrospect, the Bulldogs should have gotten more of a look in)

I liked the idea of Souths - I used to buy doubles to fundraise for Souths Juniors whilst working in Mascot. This is what really got me into League.

My company had a showroom in Miranda and I love Light Blue jerseys (having worn light blue / dark blue in a school team) so Cronulla were a chance.

But I was living in Double Bay and I asked my brother in law "what are Easts like as a team"
His response sealed it for me "They're rubbish, absolutely shit, they'll never win anything"

I was sold.

My grandfather and all his brothers played lower grade for Parramatta and even though they lived in Newtown my dad grew up supporting Parramatta. Now it is a family legacy.
