Hi guys. Aussie Niner fan here since 1988! Will tell you my story later but I had to join this forum as for some reason I can't access the Boards on the Niner offical site - The Red Zone etc.
Anyone else have a problem with that? I notice that site doesn't come up on Google now so did they have a major prob? Cheers all and look forward to hanging here now.
And Jarryd has disappointed me greatly with his move to a Mickey Mouse game. I stopped following him on Facebook and everything lol

Welcome mate. Don't go anywhere else. That other place has no where near the amount of banter or info available.

For any USA fans interested in what the chatter has been about regarding the Rugby League State of Origin I have a link with everything you need to know.
This is the pinnacle of that sport and where Jarryd Hayne (living in infamy) once roamed.
There are many on display that could make an impact in NFL if they learned it early enough.
49ers scouts should take note. In fact many other scouts do.

Hey cheers bro. I didn;t mind the 'other place' actually but i'm sure you guys are cool too. I follow the AFL - St.Kilda is my team and I laugh when US Niners fans talk about the 'Dark Years' of 2003-8 etc, as being a Sainter I am well and truly acquainted with heartbreak!
Look forward to being on this forum

There is an AFL thread.

And one where we talk about other NFL players most of which have AFL links.

just got back from a sailing trip in Croatia and spent a whole week with Aussies and it was cool to see that they all knew the 49ers and rooted for them. Seems like NFL is getting bigger in Australia. Also, dam you guys can drink haha

Of course. Many of us skirted around the edges of the NFL for years. Hayne just provided the focal point needed to solidify that interest.
The Niners are my team now, as much as any other team I follow in other sports.
You've always been good too Frozen, so bottoms up mate.

My Bowman jersey recently arrived in the mail. Bought my 2016 GamePass. Bring on the new season! If only it didn't seem soooo far away right now.
On a side note, the US medium jersey I bought is about the size of an Aussie large so I'd recommend buying a size down from your usual if you look at getting one! Still fits OK if I throw another shirt on under it though so it's all good. :)
