Good Old Days..

[gallagher]

First game the 1977 Amco Cup final with dad. Lidcombe Oval tragic till 1987. I remember how giant the players were as you ran onto the field at fulltime. The smell of the grass and liniment as you pattted Dallas, Bruiser on the back.
Games you couldnt get to you listened to on the radio. When Wests werent on you waited for scores around the ground.

Orana Park seeing the helicopter land after the game to pick up the game footage for the news that night.
Great days!!!

The smell of the wet grass and mud in that really wet winter of 89 at Orana is still with me. They used a helicopter to dry the field before the games that year. The soggy steak sandwiches were great.

Hey Gallagher, Remember the drop outs at that time. Rarely went 15 metres 🙂

Basically playing in mud that year.

Remember Noel Cleal is an SOO game at the SCG in probably 84 ...went 3 metres if he was lucky .....game when Wally hits the crossbar with a chip and Dowling scores under the black dot

Would have to Google her bands name. I'm guessing the third act didn't have a nice arse because that's all I remember of the first two acts.
