[happy_tiger]

Just thought I'd let you all know that 11.00 pm tonight the 1989 Balmain v Canberra GF replay is on Foxtel

Maybe some of the younger WT's fan might want to watch

Arguably the best GF I've seen

Its been 25 years CB

Can't hurt that much now ,can it ??

Just watch it with a bottle of OP handy , dull the pain

Your a WT's supporter , we build up an immunity to these things

Maybe that's what the club needs , Warren Ryan as GM ?????

Love your work Happy.

I've never seen a bloke so certain to score a try. EVER.

He was more certain to score than Sam Perritt was over the weekend. It's as if he hit the ground and all of a sudden got bogged in it.

Read in Meninga's autobiography that he didn't think he would get him and thought he had scored

I know it must hurt many Balmain's fans , but it is one of the best GF's I have seen

If you suffered from Cardiac complications this game is not for you .
Bloody hell did i cry after this game , the week before i was at the Stadium with my Dad when we beat Souths 20-10 to get into the Grand Final and i was sure we were not going to lose the Big One after that performance the week before , how wrong was i ? I was 11 years old and still have nightmares lol

Full of if onlys - Elias hitting the cross bar, Mick Neil tripping over with the line open, Wayne Pearce dropping the ball with line open, Harrigan's penalty against Maguire, Warren Ryan taking off Sirro and Roach, our inability to put Chicka Ferguson on the ground - all bias views of course. Was at the game too and have never been able to watch the full replay, but have seen snippets throughout the years. I feel your pain

 

[GNR4LIFE]

It was Balmains destiny to lose that game when you look at all those little moments.

Yep - and the beginning of a new era for a champion football side.

 

[jirskyr]

That was it for Balmain, never got off the canvas after 89.

At least Maggies had some strong years in the 90s.

Made the finals in 1990 got knocked out by Penrith (by memory) and it was pretty ordinary from then on- Alan Jones era …...

You are going better than me foreverstiger. Have not watched the game since. A mate of mine is the same. Mind you the 8 - 2 penalty count against the tigers by that mug harrigan certainly helped his beloved raiders across the line.

 

[underdog]

I must have missed something - the replay didn't contain Elias's off the crossbar field goal attempt.

Dammit Fox sports, don't be cuttin up that shiz.
