You can let go now.... The ledgers squared.

Your burden absolved... Monkeys off the back

I expect never to hear a whinge about 89 ever again.

Got it?
 
It can never be let go - they beat Balmain and have now lost one.

On the surface the ledger is square.

However Balmain are still 2 short.

Not the same. It’s Manly.
 
Easily said than done. Was at the game and still have never watched the replay. Vividly remember it all. Yesterday did nothing to absolve my agony on that day. Sympathy to the Raiders supporters.

Do people seriously still have a problem with this 30 years later?

Yes!


Wow

I'm still dirty about 78 vs Manly

I'm still dirty on 1909 as well as 1989. Time is not a healer.
 
I could have copped Raiders losing yesterday in a manner reasonably similar to 1989, unfortunate part is that this would mean a Roosters victory which makes me vomit in my mouth.

A premiership would do wonders in Canberra, does SFA in Bondi. Roosters are not a club that boosts the NRL's national interests in any fashion.

2 reasons - Easts were an ARL team in the Super League war and they at least are a Sydney team.
 
Magpies vs Dragons '63 (?) Grand Final with Darcy Lawler refereeing. I was only 4 and have little memory of it at the time but I enjoyed the remainder of my Dads life seeing him charge up over that game. It was easy to get a bite mentioning that game. Ironically, my dad was good friends with Laurie Bruyeres- so he didnt dislike all refs.

Time unfortunately doesnt heal too much, just covers over................

I don't get that, I hate Sydney-based teams most of all. That's the whole idea of local derbies.

Hate Roosters
Hate Parra
Hate Bulldogs
Hate Dragons
Hate Manly
Hate Sharks
Hate Penrith

probably in that order. I dislike a few other teams as well, but nowhere near as much as I hate Roosters / Eels / Bulldogs.

Wow Super League, that's 25 years ago, even Balmain existed then.
 
Nope doesn’t help at all. Canberra getting dudded doesn’t heal anything. 1989 will be a sore point until the day I die. I’ve never watched a replay in full and never will. The sight of Bill Harrigan still makes me bitter.

With you all the way.
