I grew up in Newcastle pre-Knights so had to pick a Sydney team. Everyone at our primary school were mad for collecting and swapping footy cards. My favourite card was Noel Cleal who looked like a Ned Kelly bush ranger which I was studying at school. So Easts it was and still is.
I've always thought of Easts supporters as the cultured "beautiful people" of rugby league so have modestly always felt right at home.
