used to sell the KBs at Henson would literally run out after each game..and we had overstocked the KB to.

I work with the Jets but always wear my sharks jersey underneath my uniform

Is the ground itself still a bit of a dust bowl at times?

Here and there. Its always changing that field. Marrickville council are a joke absolutely useless

In the old days, Henson was an oval that you hated to play on - hard as a rock and unforgiving and you'd come of the ground with grazes and grass burns.

I'm told the SCG was worse.

Henson got re-vamped in about 1995 from a government grant and they ripped up everything and re-worked the pitch from scratch.

It's still nowhere near NRL standard but a damn lot better than the old days - great ground to watch traditional footy though.

If they didn't call off the NSW Cup trial at the start of the year, I really doubt they'd call off an offical match.

 

[sharks2010]

I ask because they actually did postpone a Henson match because of wet weather earlier this season, thanks genius.
