Boo Brock?



Recommended Posts

He said "that was my first win in round 1, since 2005". Not that bad, don't know if he said anything else.

Sometimes it's just the way things are said...

If i was Dean Bailey i would mention it tomorrow-just might help the boys get over the line, particularly Beamer!!

I will boo until my voice is sore !!! Just as I did for Nathan Bock.

Booing is childish yet amusing. I prefer the more mature way, the Heckle. A few carefully chosen words sent over the fence at your target (boundry throw in's are perfect)works a treat and can even gain some crowd involment. Careful now as the wrong words can very quickly lead to you becoming the heckled. Its a fine line but one worth taking. If all else fails keep half your pie from lunch, find Brocks car and stick it in his exhaust. That should do the trick!

do you concede that some of those 'kick its' are followed by a series of handballs that eventually come unstuck and someone is caught into a turnover, and kicking it WOULD have been the better option

What I like about the 'just kick it' call is that it's often yelled out when there's no suitable option to kick to further afield - something the ball-carrier has clearly been able to notice.

I really rate Booing. I find it very enjoyable and usually have a good laugh after each good boo. i always enjoy the footy and a bit of good humoured vocal banter is a great part of it. If you want to hear some cretins go no further than the MCC members where I sit. The words "kick it" are used as a solve all by many of my fellow supporters.

You are unbelievable-- two posts on this thread state that you will boo him.Get real or are you a fake?

You could not lie straight in bed

I remember Woewy's first game against us, on Queens Birthday. Many of our supporters booed him and i could not work out why, given we gave him the push. Collingwood went on to win by 58 points that day. An embarrassing defeat, made even more so by imbecilic booing.

While it may feel good for some at the time, it serves no purpose whatsoever. You can boo at your own peril. I just want to see a good game of footy and hopefully the Dees can challenge Carlton.

In retirement Woey remains a Demon not a Magpie. He even had his kids in Melbourne colours a few years back. My attitude towards him when he left us was simple. "It's not your fault you are now playing against us Shane. I hope you are BOG, BUT we win against C@#@$$#wood "

I'd never boo one who put so much effort into his footy as a Demon. So me booing Brock? NEVER!

"Just kick the bloody thing!!!!!!!" yells some genius. Player complies. Opponent takes uncontested mark. Ball rebounds and a goal is scored. "Thanks genius," I think to myself.

Needless to say I won't be booing Brock when we play the Blues. As much as I hate 'em, Brockie's cool with me.

He was playing and therefore partially responsible for these losses he is making stupid remarks about.

If the passionate, massive, tribal, huge, etc crowds that follow the blues and pies around are cretins, then call me a wannabe cretin.

cry me a river.

lets worry about our team and not lose sleep over meaningless comments by former club members.

So because I like to Boo and I will boo Brock I can't lie straight in bed? - I don't understand.

Boo or not, I don't care. Just good to have plenty of passion amongst our supporters, particularly those in the Members'.

From what I saw last night, we're a good chance to beat both those sides. But then Judd was missing. I'm going tomorrow believing and willing a win for our new side. I'll be happy if we're not disgraced (no reason why we should be, looking at both teams).

It'll be great to bellow again "GO DEES!"

For what it's worth I won't boo Brock, I'll leave that to collingwood supporters with more tattoos than teeth.

As one of the 13 people at the Adelaide game last year (the one where they flooded the backline even though we didn't have any forwards, it was 3 degrees centigrade with a howling wind, and when we kicked our first 2 goals for the game in the 3rd quarter, we were suddenly back within 20 points!)I booed Bock, any man who smacks his woman deserves to be booed in my book.

It's good to know I'm not alone :D

I wish every player that asked to be traded gave us $10K before he left.

If people are going to boo Chook every time he gets a touch let's hope we only have to boo two or three times.

I wont be booing.He made his bed let him sleep in it.

The best way of revenge is on the scoreboard.

Hopefully in a few years time,finals success,he'll be then left pondering.

Just hope Moloney / Sylvia let him know all about getting a kick.

Brock's been a pro in all the media I've heard since he decided to leave and since he left.

He did donate that money to the Demons too.

I wont be booing him but I also wont be wishing him luck at Carlton

Summed up perfectly.

if he hits one of our players then I'll give him a spray but otherwise would rather put my efforts to cheering the Dee's on.

Nah, can't be bothered booing him.

There's a strange feeling like he doesn't really matter.

He may get all the round 1 wins he'll ever want, with Carlton now seemingly fixtured against Richmond to open the season every year.

He and Carlton are welcome to win the first game of the AFL season. We'll be looking to win the last one.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
