I think REB is a guy who just loves seeing the SFC fail.
I have never seen him post 1 positive about the Club we love.
On the contrary I have been more than gracious to Norwood on both this site and footysa.com
Insecurity often leads to some stupid remarks and I'm afraid once again old REB has turned a North v Sturt trial into an opportunity for him to post his hatred of our Proud Club.
Insecure about Sturt?? Pfft. 1 flag in the last 25 years?? It is the arrogance that makes me go fishing and yes, I scored many bites with the standard 1978 line. And I have posted many positive things about Sturt over the years, especially my admiration for champion players such as Bagshaw, Davies and Graham. The reason I talk about 78 so often is because I still can't believe that the Legs won against a side with so many champion players. I think I'm not alone regarding 'stupid remarks' ..but better to be stupid than to be arrogant without cause. The 60's were a long time ago and as such any 'hatred' I have for any club is always reserved for Port Adelaide and increasingly Centrals. In any event, the 'hatred' you speak of is really only jealousy because my club hasn't been consistent flag winners in my lifetime.
Cheers,
REB
