That article brought back some memories.
Those car load of cowards farked off as quick as they came in.
It was a quiet night at the pub and wrong place/wrong time for Frog (never been known as Froggy).
When they swarmed Mckeon st, the Brazos were having their BJJ Xmas bbq with the local BJJ guys across the road in the park.
When the 150+ cowards hit the pub, the boys ran over and a crew of about 5 brazos and 5 locals started dropping them like flies.
The cowards thought they had safety in numbers WRONG.
They bolted with their tail up their ar5es.
I recall the following arvo we had approx 200 locals armed and ready for whatever.
The word was out that they were regathering in big numbers in their local areas and looking to return.
The scary part was nobody really knew how far it would escalate.
The cops handled the following week very well with lockdowns on all eastern beaches until it simmered down.
Without these lockdowns there would have been people killed 100%.
