Rovers poor bayside relations to SBMT? ha. Maybe if the Rovers MERGED with TWO other clubs and were spoon-fed the best school-side going around at the time (from St Bedes), then they would have gone on to win an A grade flag as well. Instead, the Rovers do it by themselves, and do it quite well, as a district club. Proud of it also. Hampton Rovers won an A Grade flag well before SBMT or any other club in the area for that matter did.
Cardio, do you think the Rovers give a crap the mighty Hammers got council funding? They can stick to their division 3 SFL. At least when work is carried out at Boss James, the club won’t be kicked off for a year. And just compare the facilities will you. And also, do you think the club was concerned it lost a handful of reserves players to the Hammers? FYI – the club also fielded a Club XVIII team this year and we weren’t short for players on one occasion. In fact, the senior section of the club had record numbers this year.
Anyway, I’m glad you love coming down to Boss James Reserve and watching the Rovers so often. Feel free to come in for a beer following a game and enjoy the friendly atmosphere, everyone’s always welcome.
And in regards to your other question – no I didn’t get a tattoo last year for the Hawks premiership, I did in ’89 though.
