Funnily enough I agree (bearing in mind she's quite capable of making stupid calls of her own).

Actually get a bit squirmish when she's on 3AW and just gets flat out bullied by the likes of Shaw, Walls and Taylor.

I actually don't mind her, she's one of the few that aren't overly egotistical concerning their position in the media.

Stated on 5AA this morning that they need 27 000 in tonight to break even, considering its likely not to be raining the Crows should manage that without too many problems.

Agreed she has more credibility than a crows fan who jumped on 11 years ago claiming they are the most loyal/traditional fans in the state. :lol: :lol:

Not sure you can be putting "traditional fan" in any criticism Mopar.

Your club had very few "traditional fans" living in Elizabeth not all that long ago, and, sadly, you dont seem to get the numbers to home games that you do to the once a year red,white and blue GF. I'd say many of those going GF day would be their only SANFL for the year. No problems with that, good luck to them, but dont go criticising other for not being "traditional".

Also, is it the fans of Crow/Power teams fault they are only here every second week?

Fair points?

So can I ask because Collingwood doesnt consistently get 90-100K to their minor round matches at any stage this year like they did for the AFL GF last year.

Would you caste their supporters as not "traditional" the same as centrals supporters????

Cant see anyone saying its Crows fans fault that only 18K of their fans see their only if winning team play every second week when the sun shines. What I am simply saying is. You can not claim your more loyal/traditional than those who have seen there team play week in and week out for the last 30-50 years.

Is it really that hard. As stated in my original port. YOu dont and will never compare IMHO.

HEADLINE FOR CROwS FANS :

you are not the most loyal and traditional fans in the AFL. And unless 13 AFL clubs fold.

YOU NEVER WILL BE.

Kind of figured the response would be like that. Reminds me someone. Anywho -

Collingwood get 70k+ to nearly every home game and of course you can expect more to attend a GF, if possible. ( Stadium capacity ) Good comparison though. :roll:

My point was, the end-to-enders swell to nearly 10,000 on Grand Final day and that would mean about 9000 of them are there for the first time during the year. Traditional / loyal in your books?

You're having a crack at people who only go every second week, even though their team only plays here every second week .

Incorrrect.

Im not having a go at fans who go every second week. Well done to you.

Just dont ever Compare yourselves to those who go every week come rain, hail or shine. As stated 5-6 times now you dont compare IMHO.

BTW as stated originally Im not bagging the loyal Port fans as yourself Booney.

to quote you "you can expect more to attend a GF, if possible. ( Stadium capacity )"

I agree.

applying the same logic. why did you bring up Centrals dont get as many to minor rounds as GFS then. When YOu have essentially answered your own question onepost later.

BTW the SANFL Gf has a 3:00 Sunday timeslot (harldy ideal) and yes it is live against the gate. And nearly 37000 attended.

Just to cover off on anymore excuses you will no doubtedly look to.

Not saying we dont have bandwagoners who only attend the GF because we do but i would say a high portion of the end to enders on GF day are actual supporters who go to most games they just tend to stand at different spots during the minor round. Me and my group of mates being some of them. I think the likes of Centurian, Mopar and Mr Irate do the same with the group of people they go to the football with.
