I'm sure Carlton fans in Melbourne are always on their best behaviour though. :roll:


As a Carlton fan going to AAMI for games against both the Adelaide teams, I have never experienced anything unruley from the opposition fans other than some good rivalry banter. I would say that poor behaviour exists from peanuts that support each team.

Right on brother. God forbid the stadium management to write a letter to their employer regaling innapropriatte stories of umpire cursing, wearing club scarfs, drinking beer when they tell their wives they're going to the lav. Bloody disgrace :lol:

Or spitting on opposition supporters including women and throwing stuff at opposition supporters including women.
I got your sarcasm B130 but the things I have just mentioned happen regularly and are unacceptable.
The things you mentioned plus banter between supporters are all part of the fun of footy and should never be taken away from us. Maybe piss off the beers with lids idea though :lol: . A bit of beer spillage happens. Getting 4 beers from the 20/20 final the other week and a bit of beer was spilled here and there. Big deal!


good sticking to the topic VOICE......!! :roll: you love throwing this in randomly, how many times have you mentioned this spitting incident in different threads?? ....

Voice and others,unfortunately S##T happens all the time, just visit any pub on a friday or saturday night. this sort of behaviour is not limited to Crows supporters, port supporters, parents, kids, teenagers,grandparents,the unemployed, the rich etc etc etc. generalising is EASY. you would have to be extremely NAIVE to do so.
cheers.

I only bring it up from time to time coz you guys get so precious about it. It's all a bit of fun and fishing. Thanks for the entertainment!
But I will apologise as it clearly states in the rules that no fishing is allowed in the specific Crows and Power forums. Sorry Wedgie.

just to put some perspective on all this, friends of ours have a 4yo son going thru cancer/chemo, my wifes cousin knows Andrew McLeod well and she rang him asking if he would sign a jumper for the family. McLeod said he would be happy to visit the little fella. Well 3 weeks ago it was all arranged and we suprised the kid and his Mum (huge crows fan) with McLeod walking into their room at the WCH, he hang around for an hour and had a chat, photos and gave some crows stuff to them....of course none of this is discussed in the media, McLeod = Class act

I was at the WCH about 2 months ago when our toddler cut his head open and most of the Power players came through at the same time in Xmas hats handing out chocolates

A lot goes on that doesn't get publicised (that one probably was, I didn't see the news).

Galli would have been happy with the crows players and not his beloved side getting a fan for the future! ;)

UNderstand he no longer plays, but a few years back when he did a lady wh works with my aunty was fanatic about Riccutio and sent him an invite to her 50th birthday party, was addressed to him at the Alma. He had never met her but still turned up for a while. I think that with all the bad stories we can find as many good ones.

maybe our current form has a bit too much partying during the off season? :evil:
