I was sitting just up from the large group of Panthers supporters at the game last weekend and there was alot of 'banter' throughout the game (some friendly fire - some not so friendly). After the game, most of them came over to shake hands with the Storm supporters (which I thought was really nice of them and I have done that myself at away games). However, I was really disappointed when one particularly vocal Storm supporter REFUSED to shake hands - people like her give Storm supporters a bad reputation. I didn't like that at all.

My mates were in that area as well, and there was apparently one female storm supporter that copped some abuse throughout the game, who refused to shake hands with them - by the account I heard, there was some stuff that was said that shouldn't have been, including laughing at kids that fell over

Believe me, she was giving much more than she was receiving. I don't recall any incidents about kiddies falling over - but it was rather feral where I was sitting.

I had a friend with me who was attending her first NRL game and she was amazed at the language and abuse bantered around with so many kiddies there. I was glad we won because I was getting nervous near the end that it was going to turn really ugly.

And this is the very reason why I prefer standing room. You can move away from nuffers and keep moving if you really need to. When you sit, you're stuck.

Fair enough mahoobla - as I said, didn't make it unfortunately, so was only going off what I heard, but sounds like we may sit in the same sort of area.
oh well, bring on the next game and hopefully it's all sweet!!!

We have been in the last 4 grand finals & finals for the past 7 years.  We are quite satisfied sir.  We all just get to go on holiday early this year. :D

Only two unfortunately, should have been 3 if the refs hadn't F$#%ed up.  How many have raiders won since 1994...............oh yeah none.  But don't worry my grandpa remembers the glory days of the Green machine.

We will smash the Raiders this week. They are a poor team and I expect to hand out a thumping to a bunch of pretenders.
