Roar Guru About
Was brought up in Victoria, where I barracked for the Bombers in winter and the Aussie cricketers in summer.
Life took me to Sydney many years ago, where I've gained an appreciation of many other sports; including tennis, rugby league and soccer/football.
But AFL remains my first love; and I'm now proudly a member and supporter of the Greater Western Sydney Giants.
In between working a boring desk job and attending sporting events, I trawl the internet for sporting stories and discussions.
