Figured we could use something like this to create the opportunity for general chat.

So go ahead, share anything. Let's keep this forum alive in the off season :)
 
Currently at uni and have just finished all internal requirements for my papers. Exams in a month then summer :banana:

Anyone on here studying or graduated from uni?
 
LOL i thought this was a thread to get an update on the tweets from each individual Titans player on twitter. A lot of them do constantly tweet. It would be nice to keep us posted on what they are tweeting about.
 
Haha feel free to change the name to something more appropriate, the alliteration got the better of me.

You heading to the test match? lucky. Up the Kiwis :thumbsup:

Wow, Just WOW!

Highly commendable what you're doing there, compiling the history of the Diehards, Mate. It's disappointing to read the disclaimer at the very bottom of the page. But no doubt you'll do the best you can. So far it's a great little read. Looking forward to popping back from time to time to see it progress. :)

Champion Effort! :thumbsup:
 
Did I just get trolled or did you just link me an address to a porn site? It got blocked by the uni internet because it was categorised as "pornography". hahaha wtf?!

Thanks so much Toads. It's people like yourself that we do it for. We cant go forward into the future without having a great idea of the past. It didnt just start in 1988. It was 1908 and even further back we had shared rugby history.

I also have countless BRL games, Finals an Grand Finals on video. Test Matchs and Tour games that will blow your mind. Even Crushers and Chargers material.

I also have every Brisbane Courier and Daily Mail sports article about every BRL Final and Grand Final since 1909. :thumbsup:

I own BrisbaneRugbyLeague.com and while nothing is there yet, Id like to make it a one stop shop for everyones projects that enhances the history and heritage.

It is very very sad how things ended. If Queensland had poker machines earlier the Diehards would be an NRL powerhouse. But all BRL history has been shunted too.

But you cant focus on the negative and its nearly an entirely pleasurable journey going through all this stuff.
 
Cheers for the title change.

I wasn't kidding about the unis categorisation of your link either :/
I'm sure it's looking good though.

NZ has been hit with some "fine" (by our standards) weather as of recent. Obviously nothing on aus but we're getting by haha

Hey Brad...........We may have to catch up sometime...I have some 1978 Rugby League Weeks that although are NSW based cover Brisbane footy. I used to have a very big collection of these magazines over the years (Newspaper size) but I sold a lot to a South Sydney nutter some years ago....(I had no hindsight...sorry)

Does a full page colour spread of the 1980 winning 'Avco' Diehards Presidents Cup winning team entice you at all?
 
Your website was a great read DH. Even though I was a Panther my two best mates were Mick Norris and Russell Hughes. Also Gerry Fitzpatrick whom I noticed was a contributer used to have a run with our scratch Friday arternoon off-season mob out at UQ, back in the day.

And HS, those UQ days also included John Grant (ARLC) and the great Wests prop the late Max Williamson. In reply to your question, graduated in 1976 BBus (UQ), MEd (UCL), FCoT (London) amongst some other stuff.

Thanks so much Pete. It's just one way I can give something to the game I love. It's very rewarding. The amazing history that has been buried, not just about the Diehards but the BRL, Brisbane, Queensland and Rugby League is amazing.

I'd love to catch up Shamus! Yes that is very very enticing!

I have a motherload of games on videos. So I'd give you some you might be interested in as well. Ill do up a list of what I have.

Wow small world! That is another reason why I love the project. Working on the VFC side of things will also flesh out the history of other sides. I also own BrisbaneRugbyLeague.com and would like to put material on there for everyone, from all teams.

Gerry is such a great bloke. He is a straight shooter, great dry sense of humour and a meticulousman when it comes to research and history.
 
Anyone here played rugby league live 2 yet? I purchased it the day after it came out, pretty fun game!

Doing career mode with the Titans and Idris is actually a beast when utilized. He and Gordon were both in peak form so got selected for NSW origin, along with Bird of course. Prince, Harro and Nate Myles all made QLD... it's kind of cool how the game selects players for rep games based on their form in the game instead of how the teams are irl. Sezer was playing well so managed to get Kangaroos selection..haha.

Anyone here on PSN?
 
In exam week, 1 down 3 to go. Then a long summer and off season. Might even shoot over to the GC for a bit if I can afford it.

What's everyone else up to? Any plans for the upcoming summer? Must admit christmas is making me panic already haha I'm a poor student.
 
I'm gonna be an uncle in May, for the first time. Mind suitably blown.

I really will be that black sheep uncle. Reminds me of the Paul Rudd movie My Idiot Brother!
 
Haha hey, Paul Rudd is a likeable guy.

I can only assume you will get your niece/nephew on board as a Titans supporter asap :thumbsup:
