I just followed who my older brother followed. He picked the Eels because he was watching the 1984 GF and simply picked one of the teams to follow. He thought the Bulldogs were a bit grubby, so he picked the Eels.

After the GF, it was found out that some of the Dogs players were wearing illegal fibreglass shoulder pads. So not only was a love of one club born that year, a lifelong hatred of another was also born.

So your brother got you hooked on the Eels. Have you made peace with him yet?

I’m a Masochist that enjoys torture, pain and Humiliation

So the Eels were a no brainer.


What sort of loser wants to follow a team that wins all the time???

Mum is a Dragons fan, sister is Parra and other brother is Tigers.

The bastard moved over to the US and left me here to endure the pain.

Although he cops plenty of pain over there as well as a 49ers fan.

That was a good day.
The day we won it, I mean...not that other day.

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

Could be worse. Could be broncos, manly or souffsers.

 

[carcharias]

I wanted to follow a team I could see win the comp for the first time.

Never in doubt.

Roosters. I prefer to call them East Sydney Roosters (that's the best name for them nowadays-hope they go that way one day!) As a very little kid I watched the daytime grandfinal between Easts and Manly and was in awe of the Roosters guernsey. From then on they have been my team. (I even trialled for their Presidents cup squad and met Artie Beetson during the process.) To this day the hardest thing I've done! But yes it was the jumper for me. They lost the grandfinal but the jumper had me hook, line and sinker! Knights are my 2nd team as I live in Newcastle.

Or you could just bandwagon on the good speedboat HMAS Storm...

You can tell someone is a bandwagon supporter when they refer to Melbourne as 'the Storms'
