    We never get that and it's partly because our fans never show up!! Besides that awesome Asian dude who always shows up with his banners no matter where we are. Give him a medal!!
    Hi name is Wayne and he even goes to watch Bondi United under 8s with that flag of his.

      Is this inside info?!

        Seems to be.
        80 mins for a tackling machine these days is a lot too long, IMO.

          I can't remember the last time I haven't seen that flag in a crowd home or away, good life when you can follow your team around from nth qld to NZ for 6months!

          Any idea what the flag means?

            Didn't read this forum before travelling to the match.

            At the match couldn't really see all that well.

            I was very confused.

            Took me a while to work out what was going on...Manu in 3...'replacing Latrell'...all good.
            Next minute I saw him on the right with Fergo on that wing.
            Then I saw SKD was in no 5 and playing centre next to Toops.

            Manu scored at right centre.
            "Leave him there" I thought to myself. .."but what happens to Latrell?"

            I liked SKD back at centre
            Fergo played well on the wing, from what I could see.

            What I didn't like was Toops being passed on the outside as the Knights winger or whoever waltzed over in the corner.
            If Toops had covered the sideline, our defence that came across could well have stopped the centre from scoring..

              If you had to sit anywhere near him you would give him a muzzle not a medal.

                Haha, I sat in front of him once, realised who was making that noise and vowed I would rather walk to the pub across the road and watch the match on Tv if I was ever in that situation again.

                    I sat near him at Belmore back in the 90's. I vowed never to be stuck in that situation again. Then tragically on the roosters origin thing a few years ago they sat me and my wife in front of him. It was my wife's first ever game. For some reason she has never wanted to go again.

                    Don't get me wrong. I really admire his passion. But I would prefer it a few decibels less and every five minutes instead of every five seconds.

                      Axeman you really gotta experience it for yourself.

                      I too admire his passion, but I compare it to the sound that jim Carey makes in the movie dumb and dumber where he asks " do you know what the most annoying sound in the world sounds like?"

                      How he still has a voice that can do that for 80min is astounding.

                        Rubbish. Friend has been really good this year - far better than what he dished up last year.

                        His service has been first class and his defence goes without saying. He's even managed a few decent kicks as well.

                          The 40/20 against the Dogs was terrific.

                          Keary was interviewed after the game saying Nugget was crook and couldnt train during the week. That was rhe reason for him not starting apparently.

                            I'm not sure his service has been that great.

                            When passing right to left, he seems to lean back and throw an flat pass. By the team the receiver gets it he is under pressure.
