Do you live in NORTH Sydney though? Your area is debatable.

yes, support the mighty Knights and proud to be a Novocastrian.

my Mrs reckons anyone from Newcastle that doesn't support the Knights should be tasered.

cant say I disagree.

Not in the suburb of North Sydney, but the suburb i live in is within the North Sydney Bears district. (Near Chatswood).

Fair call. I never fully understood the difference between North Shore (Bears) and Northern Beaches (f**king Sea Eagles).

:lol:

If the CC ever got a team I'd be a season ticket holder to both. :p

And I thought I got lost all the time because I'm old and senile. I'll be right now though, because I'll remember that north is south of the middle.
Never to be lost again !!!

Basically, The Northern Suburbs of Sydney can be divided into:

Lower NS: North Sydney, Lane Cove, Hunters Hill, Mosman and Willoughby Councils
Middle NS: Ku-Ring-Gai
Upper NS: Hornsby Shire

Hills District: Baulkhum Hills Shire

Insular Peninsular: Manly, Pittwater, Warringah

Born and Bred in Willoughby. Gone for Manly most of my life, but always had an extremely soft spot for the Bears.

Live in Brisbane these days. Hell will freeze over before I go for the Drongos.

Southwest of middle harbour to be precise ;)

As for the original question I live in the Bears catchement area but moved from NZ 5 years ago, and support the Warriors like I did before I moved.

Good poll, i have always been curious about this myself because i dont live in cronulla (and never have) but i randomly picked the sharks when i was 8 years old and have supported them strongly for 11 years now.

I was born in Camden and went for the Magpies largely coz they were the local team and also my old man went for them. I don't live in Sydney anymore though.

Because NRL wasn't specified, I said yes. I live about 500m from Wyong Leagues Club and I support the Roos.
As for NRL teams, I'm a born and bred Novocastrian but I've never supported the Knights. I'd been following the Roosters for about 8 years before the Knights entered the comp and loyalty overcame locality.
I moved out of home when I was 20 and I've since lived on the North Shore, Melbourne, back to Newcastle and settled on the Central Coast about 11 years ago. I certainly had no allegiance to the Northern Eagles in their short existance, purely because of Manly.

Yep. Lived my first 2 years on one side of Hurstville, have been living on the other side for the last 21 years. Also, there was a 6 month stint at Kogarah thrown in there... 5 minutes walk from Kogarah oval no less.

Yes, but only through coincidence.

Born in North Sydney, raised in South Sydney, Settled in the Illawarra/ South Coast.

Dragons all my life, I have the scars from Rabid rabbits to prove it.

Born in Blacktown sort of in between Parramatta and Penrith, grew in the district, now I live in the hills area which is sort of part of Parramatta.
