Your first game of RL?

[Beavers Headgear]

1st time i saw league was at a neighbours place, was Brisbane v Canberra, probably in 91 i guess

1st game i recall clearly watching was the NZ 24 OZ 8 test match in Melbourne in 1991, and the 91 GF is also clear in the mind

1st game attended was the 95 GF

First attended game was Round 1 in 1998 Canberra vs Brisbane at Bruce. From Memory the Raiders won 28-20. It was supposed to be Allan Langer's last season. Daley carved the Bronco's up all night, it was f**king freezing and it was great to see Brisbane get beat even though it wasn't the Tigers doing the beating.

The night everyone dreams of.

I was a Cowboys fan they had finished 7 th and were going up against a 2nd placed and heavily backed Bulldogs team in the Cowboys first finals match.

 

[macavity]

Knights first ever game, a trial v manly. sat on dad's lap in the rickety old grandstand sneaking sips of his tooheys.

red and blue ever since.

 

[TheBourbonBeast]

Brisbane v Norths at NSO 1988. Their first game in Sydney. We had come down to show our cattle at the Royal Easter Show. Great game. Great ground. I think we we're the only Broncos fans....good memories but, cause the broncs won!

 

[Fatdog]

Ist game i can remember was late 80's early 90's Steelers vs Bulldogs at Illawarra Showground. It was raining when we got there and didn't stop raining. The field was flooded. But Mum and Dad couldn't justify leaving as they had just paid for two adults and four chldren to get in.
I was watching Boots n All a while ago and they showed highlights of this particular game. They showed footage of a bulldog player going over for a try up the southern end, There was that much water he was totaly submerged.

The night everyone dreams of.

I was a Cowboys fan they had finished 7 th and were going up against a 2nd placed and heavily backed Bulldogs team in the Cowboys first finals match.

Was at that match...6 rows back right on the half way mark.
Cowboys spent the entire game getting away with being offside in defense but they really out muscled the dogs in the tackles.

It was a pretty good game in the end.

 

[God-King Dean]

Easts vs Norths @ SFS in the mid-90's.

All I remember is Eats getting smacked & Jason Taylor kicking a penalty goal 50 metres out.

 

[Marshall_magic]

First I can remember was Balmain Tigers vs Penrith Panthers round 5 1998 at Leichhardt Oval. Balmain won 30-10. There were a few before this, but this is the first one I remember.

 

[ozbash]

sunday afternoon footy at Carlaw Park late 60's.

cant remember who was playing and didnt really care in those days, it was footy..

 

[DragonPunk]

My first was State Of Origin 1 in 2004, Shaun Timmins kicked the winning field goal and all the NSW supporters high fiving and hugging made me want to go to many more.

 

[hwired]

Although I've been a RL fan most of my life I hadn't seen a live NRL game until this year...

Mad Parra supporter and decided to take my dad and see Parra vs Broncos at Suncorp...and what a game....I didn't even care that Parra had lost

 

[*Paul*]

Manly v Balmain, Brookvale, 1976. The then record crowd. Remember nothing of it, except having to perch on my father's shoulders to see.

 

[Apey]

I dunno, my Mum probably took me to a few Knights games when I was < 5, in the early 90's.

 

[flamin]

German/Sri Lankan heritage so my family were all soccer and I never got into football until late and even then I only really got into football when I attended my first game in 2005 Dragons vs Melbourne @ WIN. Dragons got absolutely romped by 40+.

 

[Ice777]

Origin 2 at the G in 1994. A then record crowd and still the 2nd biggest i think. Still remember it well, great night.
