Why do we support this club?

 

[Knight Tales]

Game is in Perth. No flying required.

Side looks much better over all (funny that with 5 First Graders coming back in). Keen as to see that Gags/Dom combination again.

Yep. My bad. Is there an agreement to play them there for a few years?

Maybe give him a game just to make sure he doesn't play then gets injured in his return game again.

Then play Hastings. There's zero football reasons to play Cogger.

And there are many football reasons to play Hastings?

I don't think there's any agreement in place. Last year the Dolphins took a home game here against the Roosters. The year before it was us. I think they're choosing games vs teams that may not have the highest travelling supporter base at the time.

Back in the Reds days, a large continent of travelling Knights fans went to away games, even over here in Perth. But of course those were the mid-90s and we were on the cusp of glory days. You could sense something was building. These days, optimism isn't anywhere near as high, so why spend a few hundred plus dollars only to be bitterly disappointed.

Pretty much all the Knights fans in Perth on Saturday will be locally-based Knights fans, and probably expats like myself.

No.
