Little things that's piss you off

[FlyingHigh]

All opinions I suppose, Spargo. If Selwood isn't in the same postcode as though blokes, then just about everyone else is in a different state. Brown was the one I unsure about mentioning because I don't think he is as consistently as good as he was when he was younger (injuries too I know), but then him and Selwood both had great players around them when they were young.

Sydney supporters having no clue about the game. Was at the game on the weekend and couldn't believe how much whinging I heard when the crows happened to earn a free kick (that was clearly there). Thought after 30 years their supporters may have got an idea of the game but it doesn't seem that way. Thought crows fans were clearly the worst but that opinion has now changed.

Ever been to a Crows game as a non Crows supporter?

How could someone who is a Crows supporter ever go to a Crows game as a non Crows supporter?

So what's your and your other supporter's excuse?

that's my point. Don't judge other crowds when you can't sit at your own stadium and judge your own crowd unbiased. Adel and Port crowds would be just as bad no doubt.

I've seen most teams live and I've found Adelaide supporters are the most one-eyed and biased going around by a country mile.
Get them away from the footy and they're lovely people, but just terrible at the footy.

No State of Origin Aussie Rules it is time to bring it back and do it right. Vic vs. SA. Vs. WA

[FOURTH ESTATE]

Most Crows supporters have no idea of the rules and just go for a social outing so they can be seen. Suggest they take the "Laws of Australian Football" with them to the games. Unlike Port supporters who are unable to read.

Mid season changes in rules!


The AFL has announced sliding in for the ball is now penalised by a free kick to the oppositon if you make contact with a standing player.

have fun policing that umpires

exactly just another grey area that will give the media hours of discussion on, showing replays, examples, errors, correct decisions etc etc

like all the rule changes the AFL make there will just be another by product from it which imho will be more head collisions with players having no other option than to go head down, low, over the ball, with both players at the ball consistently doing this there is bound to be more head collisions.

Very witty post there, clever, I like it.

You'll have to tell me what it says Booney, I couldn't read it.

I reckon I've been to more Collingwood and Richmond games than you have Adelaide games, FE is quite correct.

Have gone to many games at football park as a nuetral and back when i was a teenager and mad Carlton fan my observations.

Port Supporters compared to Crows fans

Port
-very passionate
-a tad more feral and rough around the edges
-more likely to go the biff than get in a verbal argument (have never been in a fight with a port supporter but have come alot closer there than at a crows game)
-Like the hard nut Michael Wilson types more so than the flashier types.

Crows Fans
-bigger in numbers
-there to be part of an event
-never been to a venue where the outside bars (premiers bar etc) are so packed during the game
-prefer the flashier McLeod types rather than the hard worker type
-alot more arrogant than the Port supporters
-very anti victorian everything that goes against them is conspiracy by the Vics.
-big time small town mentality if only the Vics cared about the south aussies as much as the south aussies care about them
-prefer to try and get involved with banter but hate when it comes back generally, reply, F**k off back to Victoria
-definatly not use to having groups of oppositon supporters sitting near them.

Just my views from going to around 50 games at footy park since i was a teenager.

cows bit is spot on

[Spargo]

Have been to Moorabin, Victoria Park and The Western Oval - all a tad daunting and feral in some spots. But when it comes to clueless and just plain dumb supporters who are so precious they can't handle opposition support within ten yards of their blankies - Adelaide Crows members area, take a bow.
No offence to the outer supporters who whilst are very one eyed (nothing wrong with that) know the game.
