After five on the trot, the Steel City of Newcastle, NSW is almost back to 1997-levels of excitement – as their boys in blue and red look like they might have a bit of a hum on.

Newcastle secured a thumping win over the bottomless cash pit that is the Sydney Roosters last night. Today, the spokespeople from steelworks and Newcastle Port have confirmed that in tribute to the five-game-streak, their PA systems will be playing non-stop Screaming Jets and Silverchair for the next couple days. The iconic darby pies are have reformatted their menu to 1997 prices, in homage to the last premiership under the Johns Brothers.

“Oohh. There’s a vibe around the place” said one construction worker named Kezza.

“We’ve been playing Frogstomp all day. Our foreman can’t stop dancing”

“Fuck this reminds me of 1997″
