two footy teams and a wedding

March 24th, 2010

As you know Kiki and I love spending our weekends roaming about at NSW Cup matches, soaking up the atmosphere, sharing a beer (just the one, cause we’re professional), and interviewing the crowd and the players. This weekend we hit up Leichhardt Oval to watch the Balmain Ryde Eastwood Tigers take on Wests. Why Leichhardt? Well obviously we like any opportunity for a Tim Sheens sighting. But more importantly:

a) it’s beautiful and we think the hill with all the trees on it looks like something out of Rivendell in Lord of the Rings;

and

b) We wanted to appease all the ladies who wrote in to say LEE BENNETT FROM THE TIGERS IS SOOOO HANDSOME. We like to give you what you want. We’re considerate like that.

So here’s the latest video direct from the NSWRL youtube channel, featuring Lee, Paul Sironen, some enthusiastic singing, and A Really Awesome Bride and Groom:

    What were those magpie fans smoking! Passionate about a team that got the boot in 1999. Stop living in the past boys. Time to support the Tigers

    it’s not on camera but we asked them if they follow the Wests Tigers and they CRACKED IT and were like NO WAY. NEVER NEVER NEVER.

    So they’d rather watch reserve grade than NRL? Wow, that’s…… very supportive of them…
