Spot on mate, I went for a run this morning and it was bloody sticky.
I bet you are the guy who tells his co-workers when he is going to the gym, and you only fill up the protein shake when there is at least 5 people in the room to witness it.
Hahaha, where you at today 1992? You ****

So you’re not buying into the dynasty concept?. I feel like this won’t be our last GF - next year we’ll be even better. We might go back to back.
Loving all the comments from the ground - Im at Bawley Point with 2 keen grandkids. You’ll hear us cheering at the ground.
Go Raiders!! Proud already of everything you have achieved and who you are as a team!!

It’s a beautiful morning here in Zagreb for game day. I’ve been a little disappointed all week especially for our boys that we’re not home in Canberra and heading to the game today but that’s life. As an omen coming home last night from dinner the fountain in the local square was lit up green which we took as a definite sign ImageImageImageImageImage

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Raiders support at the ground currently running about 70 to 30. Hope it stays this way to the end. Fans of other clubs tell me their supporting Raiders today.

Has anyone said; "Game day you absolute bunch of **** degenerates!" yet?

It may be a while until there's a another Grand Final day thread to say it in...

Listening to radio on my way to a BBQ. Everybody has just about written us off. Consensus was Raiders have done a great job to get here but Roosters will be too good.

2019 Grand Final V Roosters: Game Day

Post by greeneyed »

Hi all...

Hope you’re all having an amazing Grand Final Day!

Two hours before the game internet coverage is severely struggling inside the Stadium.

We may struggle to post final team lists and score updates tonight.

If you’re watching at home... I hope you jump into the breach!

And hopefully next time I post, we’re all very happy!

That was amazing, as the roosters players went from the Novotel to the team bus, they walked past a 90% raiders crowd and copped an absolute spray. Was amazing

Yep. I've been pretty chill all week. Butterflies starting to kick in now.
