    I feel that if anyone has a 2nd favourite team it's generally due to sympathy for a team that rarely competes or has minimal success.

    I don't support other teams but I have never minded watching Gold Coast and wishing they had some success. They have such a great nursery but it has always been a graveyard to have a team there.

      I have a soft spot for the Titans as my family and many of my friends are all settled there, particularly in the Palm Beach area. Some loved ones have had their ashes scattered there too, so their spirt will live on all over the place up there. That brings me some comfort as I was unable to attend a few funerals due to Covid. I always said the very first Titans team assembled was created from players I really liked and admired from other clubs and one of my favourite semi finals was against them in 2010 where Mr Minichello had a jersey made of half Titans and half Roosters as both Mark & Anthony were playing. I know that some on here like to bag Danny Nutely but the first time we played the Titans was Mother's Day 2007 and without him, we would not have won that game.

        Leeds Rhinos were the team that Dad and I always took an interest in (because they wear blue and gold like Parra) but I do have a soft spot for St Helens, Huddersfield and Fletch's old club Wigan, Enjoy from yesterday..heartbreaking for the Giants as they have not won since 1953...colourful language warning..

          Of course the Roosters will always be my team but I wouldnt be upset to see a side like Parra or the Raiders get up once in a while.

          How about you guys?
          The mighty Waratahs! Is it OK?

            Our tipping comp folded as with only 6 it wasn't a challenge

                    I watch a bit of Rugby and take an interest in the Waratahs so I would support them in a sense

                    I played two years of Rugby for Campbelltown Harlequins - Colts and for some reason the coach put me at 5/8 as I played fullback in League so I had to do a fair bit of kicking which wasn't my strong suit - anyway - we used to play on Saturdays and then back up on the Sundays to play Under 18's League in Group 6 for the Mighty East Campbelltown Eagles.

                            2nd NRL team, definitely the Warriors. Usually play the game in the right spirit. Always struggle and it's been a long time since they were competitive and played an important game against us (2002 GF was probably the last one).

                            Other sports - Man United tragic through and through - matches or maybe even exceeds my love for the Roosters... Celtic aswell in the Scottish Prem.

                            NFL - Buffalo Bills.

                            Don't follow other sports apart from test and ODI cricket.

                                It's not looking good for Forest - well and truly in the relegation zone
