It was hilarious having a granny near us continually shout "KNOCK HIM DOWN" whenever the Raiders had the ball.
The way she articulated each word and shook her fist...priceless.
But honestly our experience was different to the army's. We were surrounded by Knights fans and they were terrific people and knowledgeable about the footy. Great stuff.
It was my first visit to Energy Australia Stadium and I have to say I was impressed.
The home support was outstanding, that slow clap and chant as the Knights walked back down the field after their first try....wow.
I wish the Canberra crowd was that parochial. Too many ex-Sydneysiders who still support Sydney based teams for that I suppose.
