Jersey Flegg Team 2020

[BurgoShark]

Loving your lower grade updates and signing information.

Are you on twitter burgess?

yeah - same ID. Do you get out to a few Jets games?

 

[bigmig81]

yeah i try to when can.

Got to more last year than this year so far.

Also dont mind trying to see some of the J Flegg.

For me its a shame these games are not usually played before first grade.

I am a lover of watching all 3 grades on one day.

For sure - watching 20s (better still 23s), reserves and then 1sts used to be excellent gamer day entertainment.

We’re going all nostalgic now. Arrive at 12pm on game day, grab a Seargants Pie, chips and a beer, sit in the seat and settle in to watch the Under 23s start at 12.15pm. Reserve grade at 1.35pm with the main game at 3pm.

No silly pre-match entertainment, the games were the entertainment. No waiting around either, five minutes in between each game at the most.

4.30pm finish and home by 5.30pm.

Throw in the Click 1000 footrace at halftime, the sedate ground announcer who would give you regular updates around the ground accompanied by a huge roar if Manly were getting beaten and you had a great afternoon.

They were awesome game days, but it doesn't mean you can't throw in other entertainment. It was definitely value for money though.

I remember going to Broncos games as a kidin the late 80’s and seeing the fg team wearing 1-13, the reggies in 14-26 and the u21’s in 27-39. I would spend half the game explaining to my dad that #33 is actually the halfback and so on!

Good times!

With no NYC the Broncos and Titans each have a couple of home games this year with Q Cup games beforehand. That’s the closest we can get up here.

i dont mind the sharks having an agreement with newtown but it is just a shame that it means that no reserve grade will be played prior to first grade.

Actually dont think any jersey flegg has been either.

doubt it will ever go back to that in the future... but can only dream

 

[Gards]

jets sometimes play at shark park prior to the main game but only on occasion

Is there an influx of facial hair when that happens?

yes and alot of them bail before first grade, some hang around

At least the beer lines would be short, they wouldn't touch VB.

 

[Gards]

but it costs $8 = therefore boutique

"I drank VB before it was mid strength"

 

[Tiger Shark]

So who out of this team, apart from Xerri are worth keeping an eye on ?

I know Romounous or however you spell it is off to the Dogs.

agree. I used to want my parents to take me from gate opening time.

Unfortunately even now when we have had a few games before firsts, noone is there. Usually majority of people show up before warm ups of firsts. I already dont think the prices are too expensive. GA tickets can be as cheap as 15-20 bucks, thats a movie ticket. If u want the most out of your money, u get there early and see everything.

I do agree more flegg and reggies needs to be played on game day

People get the ****s with the massive break between the previous game and the NRL game. I don't blame them, I'm the same tbh.

Wilton is the best bet ... then ...

Mulitalo, Lumelume, Topai-Aveai, Kula, Carr

Smith, Scarpelli, Polselli and Trindall all go ok too for mine.

Isaac Longmuir (18’s hooker) is also a gun and I reckon he will get a run before the season is out.

players need to warm up......we dont have the fields next to the stadium to warm up on now so theres always gunna be a delay.

I use that time to get some beers, have a feed. have another beer. Have a lay down and take a piss. In that order

The warm up fields aren’t the reason why there was a gap though. The time gap was still there at places they have the warm up fields so there must be another reason.

probably related to broadcasting.....everything in the NRL is.

Yeah nothing to do with it.
