We also had Brian, and his huge Norwood flag, sprinting across to each 3/4 time address and stopping to give the umps a gobful along the way.
We also had that fantastic enormous fence banner 'Norwood, Pride of the Parade', that ran about halfway around the ground.
I'm starting to get emotional now, and have to stop typing.


I too was getting emotional and am glad you have stopped ... Oh for a return to the good ol' days.

Here's another one for you 2... Norwood used to play alright back then as well... :lol:

Okay, so it's cheap shot time. :wink: I've mailed Christmas cards to glenelg supporters for years for kindly gifting us the '84 flag, but I'm happy to include you on the list after you turned up your toes in that first semi. I don't have many other finals in that period to call on, because we never saw a lot of you in September.

Don't Christmas card us, send one to Argent for gifting you the GF when he rubbed out Super in the QF.... :evil: :evil:
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

I'm sure I've said this somewhere else on another thread on this site. Alan Stringer gave someone (Brett Hannam?!?!?!?) a very cheap one and a Centrals guy started chasing Stringer for the square up, and Carey threw an arm to stop him and missed by miles. He got reported :o and got two weeks. Amazing. Eventually got us a flag from fifth spot. Cost Graham Campbell his job, got Graham Cornes back to Glenelg and two flags and on to Crows job etc. Changed so much in SA footy history.

Just think, we could be turning on the radio at 4pm every time and listening to KG and Campbo -- dual SANFL premiership coach and inaugural Crows coach :shock: :shock: :shock:

My allegiance is 1st and foremost to Norwood. Been to as many Geelong games as i can, including 89,92,94,95 and 2007 GFs. Whenever they play at AAMI i'm there if it dont clash with the legs, and go to Kardinia 3- 4 times per year.

Still say MY club is best cos it's MY club!!!!

Westies are great because of one BBQ the best in the league and the mound bar pity they don't serve coopers but you can watch the game whilst getting drunk and not wet.

I thought they won at least a couple in Victoria. Does that mean BP that you think they shouldn't get any more? Bit harsh on a couple of great club stalwarts BP.

Yes, I think it is time we started sharing premierships around with the 'lesser' clubs like North Adelaide. :lol:
Forgot about the premierships in Victoria, Wedgie! Thanks for correcting me.

No flags prior to their arrival at the dogs. 5 losing GF's in a row, they are yet to miss a GF in senior footy - 13 in a row to now.
