Is there a connection between Maguire and Marty Lang?

I appreciate it - I was actually a bit worried that I would be called a bandwagoner as I am essentially only here because the new coach is but I'd like to think everything happens for a reason and I was mean't to become a supporter of the Tigers.

Both Wests and Balmain are both foundation clubs with a lot of the elder supporters having decades and decades of wonderful stories as opposed to a supporter that is hours old.

I can take the banter, It's all good! :slight_smile:

Some of our long standing forum members may correct me but I can’t recall a supporter of another club genuinely joining our forum other than to cause a stir… thinking the most recent Roosterman as an example .. however, as we tend to wear ‘rose coloured glasses’ am interested to hear from a previous outsider what you see as our clubs strength and weakness in terms of management , coaching structure and roster compared to what you know or think about South Sydney

Joey from the Raiders was a good bloke , enjoyed a laugh , all in good fun , haven't seen him about for a fair while though

Never took a backward step and was probably as quick as some of our current backs :laughing:

The kamikaze prop. How he never broke his neck will forever baffle me.
