Wow.. different game, different crowd, different world back then !
 
Dad introduced me to Rugby League when he took me to my first game which was this one, I was about 6 at the time and he was a big Wynnum Manly fan and Queensland supporter despite being born in New Zealand. He got me a Broncos jersey to wear and something about it just made me proud to wear it. I can't say I remember too much from it without seeing replays except seeing the brillance of Lewis in action.
 
Wonder if Manly used betting apps back then...some of those plays were wtf...
