Official Match Day Thread: Roosters vs Tigers

[rented tracksuit]

Speaking of DC, what an awful name the old redskins have been given, commanders??

I know right.

It caused an uproar here earlier this year when it was announced.

Hardcore for sure.

wayne is probably the best known fan by everyone due to giggity giggity.

Maybe but I am referring to those on here. Unless Wayne is Sally then I’m still going with thirteen.

I can certainly vouch for Thirteen too. We've lived near each other for years and before I got sick, I used to sit near him at games and introduced Jacks Fur Coat to him, so I'm happy they still catch up now and again. Even though we may disagree regarding the womens competition, you could not meet a more polite and respectful human being.

Like 3 times.

I actually do prefer to watch it on TV. Have never really enjoyed the game day experience, except as novelty. I can't seem to quite get the same feel for how the game is going as what I do on TV. That's probably an artifact of having grown up watching it on TV, year after year. You get used to experiencing it in a certain way. I've been to around 25 games over the years and only walked out a winner on three occasions -- so I'm also a shocking jinx! I live in Tamworth, but even if I lived in Sydney or thereabouts, I doubt I'd attend regularly; it's a big chunk of your day gone. I'm a visual artist as well as writer and publisher, plus I work Monday to Friday at my regular job. Weekends tend to be my time for that other stuff. I'm a passionate Rooster and have been since the mid 70s, but the game day experience is not for everyone.

Thanks for saying that. I have sensory problems these days and can't cope with crowds lights and noise as I get vertigo (yeah, I'd be a joy to take out to BankWest or whatever they call it these days) but even during the GFC, I still paid up my small business sponsorship and I still pay for a non-ticketed membership, even when I wasn't living in Sydney.

You live in a beautiful city and I envy you being so accessible for the Country Music Festival..

I am sorry I was not able to attend games before I was born.

It’s a shame you don’t attend games anymore. I would love to sit with you and hear some stories from the 60s and 70s. I’m always very interested in the history of our great club.

Can we just end this argument like real men and flop them out on the table?

Membership cards?

Of course!
