Have travelled home from Cairns to see us take on Brizzie. For what it is worth if you are going and would like to have a chat PM me and I‘ll let you know where I will be seated ….. would be great. Will be at the post-match function too and take some pics to post here.
Taking a mate who lives in Tweed Heads and is as passionate about Manly in the NRL as I am about our glorious Hawks. His name is Bob and whilst the Seaeagles’ TV games is his priority he has watched many a Hawks game over the past 9 years or so and, despite our lowly positions on the ladder, has come to admire the Hawks. He reads Hawkeye mags when I receive them and is impressed with the happenings at our club. You could say he is one NRL fan who loves the Hawks. So there you are a little anecdote beyond the pale.
Here it is Friday morning and I am getting pre-match nerves, guys and gals. We simply have to beat those Lions tomorrow night and by a big margin as it is pay-back time for some of the thrashings we have been on the end of during that club’s glory years.
