Ha ha at those that think we are salty. It's hard to be sad when you have only lost a handful of games in 3 years.
We have our share of mouth breathers on facebook that would be getting teary eyed, but the majority of hardcore fans see it for what it is, the price of success. The banter towards the Dogs is more amusement than hate. You guys cried long and hard over being raided over the years, "Bred not Bought" is just coming back to bite.
I've mentioned a few times on this site that the players we got from Belmore in the late 80's were what we needed to take the next step, they were also close to or past their use by dates at the Dogs. A bit different to what is coming the other way now. Like a few of you mentioned though, if it wasn't you guys, it would be someone else. The only one I'm salty about is Api, very dumb by us letting him go. To the rest I say Thanks for your service and best of luck.
I am looking forward to seeing the old Panthers scoreboard at Belmore in Heritage Round too.
One other plus I suppose is that they can teach your guys the team song given they got to sing it pretty much every week.
