Swans fans are about as good as you get as far as opposition supporters go..

Melbourne supporters who have no [censored] idea do my head in much more..

Come sit in the MCC during game day for a lesson in the basics..

    GWS 'fans' in Canberra are the worst. Don't pay attention to the game, talk loudly about their legal jobs, don't know the players, like to gloat, have no idea what the club song is at the end, 

    Took all my might to stop BBO from eating them whole a couple of years ago. He was that angry.

    You too could be an insufferable [censored] if your team made the finals every year.

    My advice is to make sure you've got at least five rows before you and any other human.

    But as a Melbourne fan you would have missed.

    Simple comeback to those types is how do they feel about a team from another city thay deserted them. They hate the concept and it just makes them angrier.

    It can also apply to smartarse lions supporters when appropriate.  It doesnt matter for suns or gws as those teams are artifical constructs.

    If youve ever spent considerable time in sydney you'll realize how irrelevant the club is in the greater scheme up there.

    I’ve lived in Sydney since 1979 and can honestly say that the Swans have far more relevance here than clubs from any other code. They get bigger crowds, they have a winning culture that is admired by Sydney-siders and they are the reason that AFL now has strong support in the wider community at all levels.

    That would be 70,000 members irrelevant with the ability to attracted the best players in the game? Mmmmmmm..............

    60,900 members actually, only 15K more the us, in a monopoly market of 5.0 Million.

    This mornings Sydney Morning Herald online has 21 rugby, , Union, Soccer and cricket articles until it hits the swans with a piece. I got sick of scrolling to get there.

    Get the drift?

    Mmmmm....?

    My advice is to cut a vicious shoot promo on them. 

    Something similar to this.

    BTW was this the type of promo you were worried that Jaka was going to cut on the Demonland podcast?

    I'm afraid I don't get your drift at all... the SMH links directly to Real Footy.  It has the same articles as appear in The Age online news.  Oh, and if it's scrolling that bothers you, you actually have to scroll further to get to the NRL which is situated below the Sport section where the AFL news can be found.

    As far as numbers go, it is NOT a monopoly market.  They share the AFL with GWS as well as competing with nine Sydney based NRL clubs, a number of Rugby Union clubs and soccer clubs. The fact that they have so many members is a reflection on just how well they are doing in a market that was once almost entirely owned by the NRL.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
