    Allow me to introduce myself

    Yank fresh off the boat here. Went to the game tonight and met a few of you guys, although I don't remember the names. Enjoying watching rugby thus far, and keen to maybe try playing it next year.

    So one question. Are all rugby stadiums so quiet? In The States fans pride themselves on how loud they are in the stands to disrupt the visiting team. It has been know to cross the threshold of pain. But nib was so quiet tonight that I didn't realize the game had started while waiting in the beer line.

    Perth crowd can pretty pathetic at times. As for the fact that so called fans didn't have the decency to be in thier seats to see the " the founding captain" in his final game really pi55es me off.
    Welcome to Perth and the Force you wouldn't have known about Sharpie so please dont take offence.

    Welcome stewev. It did seem pretty quiet tonight, but after our abysmal first half it's no wonder. Crowd started to come good in the 2nd half.

    I was one of 'em along with Mrs Shasta, Swee, Jargs, Rhonda, Swee & No. 8. I think you made some new mates within about a minute when you told us "I've tried to get into AFL but it f@cking sucks" welcome.again - mate

    Australian rugby crowds tend to cheer the good, but shut up pretty easily when their team isn't going well. The first half was an example of the crowd being taken out of the game in no uncertain terms.

    I didn't notice. You seemed your normal intrverted, softly spoken self.

    Can't have been too bad if you can still post coherently 5 hours later.
