I will always attend Norwood games just like I have for the past 35 years despite who the opposition is but I can tell you now that I will be more vocal and abusive of the Power and Cows players and supporters.

Yep wouldn't be a good mix of supporters who are there passionately to see their team win and grab the two points while the other set of supporters won't give a damn about the result continuously especially if they start losing making references to their side only being a reserve side etc etc

Dont agree
As a member of Essendon for 30+ years and going to numerous reserves game I can tell you the club does not give a crap about the reserves winning. The supporters might but the club doesnt. The senior coach tells the reserves coach what position and what ammount of game time each player plays, winning is purely secondary. The ammount of Bendigo/Essendon games ive been too where players are played out of position or only play 10-15 minutes is unbelievable.

No it doesnt but the feedback I hear from other teams is very similar. Dont forget the Vic sides have had this system for years.
Doesnt Port already demand what position players play now?
Seem to recall the Port coaching staff telling one of their players to come off the ground a few years back at the Parade because he was only meant to play a half.

I think we'd most of us be fine with that - for the millionth time just not in the Sanfl.

Mostly Bays supporters id imagine, considering the side was made up of them.
I dont actually know many Norwood supporters who support the Cows

why not? if you where a true supporter you would support your club no matter who they are playing. So the only thing that will effect your club is they will loose a couple of players that have afl contracts.
