I can see the post game Press Conference with Mary " Well we're missing two front rowers and our Captain, their tries were all from kicks and Bring back John Fifita's missus jinxed us, but I I thought the boys done good ".
You can't lose sight of the fact that superstitions are silly and have no bearing on anything but if you must have them keep them simple and practical. Maybe buy your wife a Saints singlet to replace the jersey or some article of clothing that's less visible, preferably red and white. But not today, she has to wear the jersey today.
I like to watch the games on my own. Don't like others talking through the game. Now that I'm using Kayo, I tend to watch it in my study on my 26 inch Mac. Up close and personal with minimal interruptions.When we play a big game I can only watch it by myself. In 1999 we led the grand final 14-0 and friends’ of my wife came over and came into the TV room. They were not footy followers, asked questions all through it and my wife kept on telling me “it is only a game” as the referee helped the Storm. No idea!
