I lived next to the home of the Box Hill Mustangs/Hawks for 30 odd years but any thoughts of changing allegiance withered when the Mustangs became the Hawks. I now happily support the NBs, except when they play Coburg and, in my mind, the contest is between Coburg and Preston.
Go Blues ... or Coburg :-\
I lived in Box Hill Sth but was a Preston fan, never really enjoyed the NB's conversion from Preston and dont like the alliance either.....loved the old VFA and Preston vs Coburg was a battle royal with Harold Martin vs Phil Cleary coaching.....
