i tipped the Roosters to beat Manly on all four occasions this year
I tipped Manly to win on all four occasions. And I'm proud of it.
To boast that you tipped against the team you profess to support is shameful.
Sham TC. Shame. Shame. Shame.
Why is it shameful, it's more important for me to be true to myself than to be a fan and tip according to who i follow.
I was asked several times in these forums would Manly win if so and so was playing against the Roosters etc etc and answered back honestly.
You can be a fan and tip against your team or does it require me to attend all games drive 4hrs to games, fly to games, purchase a min of $1000 in merchandise and never tip against Manly, oh and also wave a banner combined with a little face paint in Manly colours to be a "true supporter".
It's shameful, imo, to boast about tipping your team to lose. All of us, at times, feel in our minds that an opposition team may beat our men, but we keep those thoughts to ourselves and still go out and shout ourselves silly for our team. An example of that was our triumph over Souffs in the final.
I think you should keep those negative thoughts to yourself rather than congratulate yourself - after the event - for being so insightful.
The only one I want to tip against Manly is Mick from Queensland.
