Balmain fans healing

[tigerbalm]

sports dont work like that.

 

[rustycage]

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 was in touch with an old mate that's a bunnies fan. Each year he posts the tally of premierships per club. So I let him have it with both barrels this year. He was carrying on about the clubs humility blah, blah, blah. Lying deceptive scum that include a gf win that never was is far from being humble. They could easily leave that one out. But no, just a dirt bag of a club. Conveniently, they never remember, but tigers don't forget

FOX just aired a great 1989 30 years on with Block, Siro and Elias.

Still painful, but well worth a watch.

FWIW the McGuire 'shepherd' was one of the truly bad decisions. Changed the game and even the Canberra trio on the show all agreed.

30 years on and I still can't believe Ginger Meggs did not score.............

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.

I don't like him either, he's a cocky arrogant so & so on MMM

Forgive my memory.... What was the subsequent play from THAT penalty?
I Recall it was about 30 or 40 out from balmain end... Would've put Raiders on the attack immediately

 

[BZN]

Why is it "only fair"@Tiger_Steve that "old W*ests diehards" [note* uppercase W]
like me, "let go of the whole manly thing?"

 

[innsaneink]

Everyone hates manly... Cept tiger steve

 

[OzLuke]

I was more dirty about 88 when putrid Lamb ko'd Ellery and got away with it

From memory they kicked a goal to get within converted try range

I don't hate the team, just the fans

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.

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.

They exist and always will for me.

 

[Spud_Murphy]

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?


As long as old wests diehards let go of the whole manly thing...
Only fair

Yes I’ve done that, I actually like Manly now ?

 

[innsaneink]

Everyone hates manly... Cept tiger steve

and me.

Yeah well we know the only reason you're here

I cannot stand when people want to go for teams just because they are a NSW team. It’s not Origin. Usually they’re casual supporters anyway.

 

[OzLuke]

If not for the Tigers and if I had to stay supporting, I would choose either Raiders or Warriors....

All the other teams can simply burn

 

[gunja]

@jirskyr you forgot the bunnies, i was quietly wanting manly to knock them out

lol..hate em ALL..problem solved..
