Re: Post Game passion: AFL 2021 Rd 6: Carlton vs Brisbane - Professer E - 04-25-2021
I'm not supporting poor behaviour at the footy, but don't think you understand that this club means a huge, huge amount to some suppourters and some of those supporters have had enough after 20 plus years of irrelevance... And when you're got the same spin meisters in charge who refuse to listen to the common man who coughs up his $500 or so each year to get nothing but bitter disappointment, yes I get it. Then we have a hopeless MC with a questionable selection policy, the same old players making the same old mistakes and skill errors.... Yes, I can see people going to the footy and getting more than a touch exasperated and swearing. I mean look at yesterday.... Nobody on Rich, Betts getting what, two kicks, Levi invisible, Williams' $800 K shank, inconsistent umpiring, Murphy's inability to apply pressure.... Yes, some swearing is inevitable.

Eddie got at least 4 kicks as he got 4 points. We even "carltonised" Eddie into being a 5hit at goal. At Adelaide that'd have been 4 goals.

Yes, some swearing is inevitable.Absolutely no problem with the odd f bomb and the frustration and I’m a paid up member of decades and my kids have been since birth too, but to be swearing constantly out loud at the umpires, the goal umpire, our players - which then turns into a fight amongst supporters - really makes a glum viewing when we’re losing, 10x worse!
Along with that was constant swearing and yelling out at Robbo and Joe Daniher ? Bizarre.
Consideration to others, I get the frustration but this behaviour was next level.

The odds are in our favour that on one day our forwards will all kick accurately and we will win a match. We'll be very happy and then reality will set in the following week.
The fact is we have problems with our list. We can't depend on TDK and Charlie being long term players. TDK has been injured a number of times and mystery surrounds his present injury. He may turn out to have a long term future or be another Marchbank. The club has provided no information on his progress since 14 April when it was said he was 1 or 2 weeks away.
Similarly Charlie's long term future is an unknown.
Right now we need another ruckman. At best Pitt breaks even and our mids are not capable of playing to a losing ruck.
We need two additional mids, preferably with a bit of bulk, to give some depth to our midfield.
Finally, we desperately need a decent centre half forward to give stability to our underperforming forwards.
If we don't try to fill the positions at the draft we will continue to be an " almost good enough side".

Generally agree. I think supporters need a little context and need to behave like adults. It's a game of football, nothing more and nothing less. I get the emotional attachment, but a ticket for a game or a membership doesn't come with the right to abuse at will. If you think the club doesn't deserve your money, then don't give them any.

In my post I meant 24 March with regard to TDK

I was with my wife and 2 young kids. Just asked my wife and she said she did hear one large Carlton supporter in the next aisle call our own player a soft c#$% sucker. I must have been in the toilet.

One must control oneself and behave in public, no need to become the lowest common denominator.
