yeah, had over 7 so naturally they scored 7. Too many goal kickers suddenly couldn't convert to save themselves when I do points totals so it takes that out of the equation

loltipping. Although I've resorted to choosing different teams in different comps now so I probably got 2/2 somewhere.

That 1st one still hurts 17 years later.

f**k you Albert.
f**k that's probably the game from my younger days that is burned in my memory. I remember mostly Matty Johns field goal going over and I think either David Fairleigh or Billy Moore falling over in despair in the background.

Been awhile since I've been to the footy. Not the result I wanted (in either grade) but it's nice to see Parra turn things around and show some positives.

Nice set of fans too. Very passionate but generally fun people to watch the footy with. Dragons fans are similar.

:sarcasm:Maybe it's just bad luck but most dragons games I go to I end up sitting near a loud, insufferable Dragons fan.

Cowboys fans have usually been fine, maybe because there've been so few of them when I've seen them play. Not sure there were any Gold Coast fans the only time I saw them play.

Generally like Tigers fans, especially at Leichhardt, good value.

I know dem feels bro. Strangely, it's not 1999 that permanently seared my memory, but 1992, when Illawarra lost 4-0 to St. George in the Preliminary Final, with 3 tries called back for forward passes (bullshit calls all of them).

From my experience, their supporters bay is really passionate but fairly respectful. Been around them a few times as a neutral or opposition and found they enhanced my experience.

However, there's always going to be that one dick-head fan that paints a bad picture of the club. For me, I've had bad experiences with three separate Manly fans. One of them desperately needed a bullet.

I was at that game as a kid. Dead set the Steelers thought it was gridiron the way they were passing...

Also thought the score was 4-2

I don't remember much from the game these days. I was only 7.

But I do remember sitting in the lounge room in tears.

I used to travel on the trains quite regularly when the Skull was on board. He was always quiet then.
