I’ve genuinely never had issues with Hawks fans beyond being arrogant when they were a powerhouse side, which I don’t think is unusual for any supporter group. 

However on the train ride home yesterday, a bunch of highly intoxicated meathead Hawks fans were incredibly aggressive and abusive to the Melbourne fans, including the kids around them. Dropping f bombs, threatening to beat up anyone who told them to be quiet etc.

 It was disgusting and downright scary behaviour. I was relieved they got off the train soon after my dad did or I would have removed myself and waited for another train. In 2024 I would think this type of [censored] would be reserved only for the lowest of Collingwood scums, but apparently not. Haven’t felt this unsafe since the Pies final last year. Not ok!

I’m guessing that this was the Pakenham train.

It's actually very difficult to single out one because I vehemently hate all the other original VFL teams. However, I do reserve a particularly nasty place in my bowels for Collingwood, Carlton and Essendon.

( I don't mind the Swans and the Giants ) 

When a decision must be made though, I just can't go past the particularly appropriately named "filth".

Uncle you must've have had some sort of buffer in matches vs this lot to plonk them into your "don't mind" basket.

Some of their supporters are the most arrogant and insufferable i've experienced over the years.  Especially in finals.

Norf also have some of the worst i've encountered.

I voted Collingwont but the Hawks & Bombers were right behind.

We needed a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th vote here!

This was an interesting poll for me.

I thought it was obviously a no brainier but I'll have a crack.

No surprise on the team but....

 

SPOIL ALERT

 

 

I thought 52% for Pies was low.

Also nobody really likes  Essendon but I don't think they would come in second.

No words can describe my hatred for Essendon, no one comes close to them for me.

Jaded from what i've experienced this is common "entitled arrogance / bullying" behavioral traits from this scum and has been for decades going back to the 80s.

I've not only seen this at grounds/games over the years but also from an (indirect) corporate boss with Hawthorn player heritage (a Polkinghorne, didn't play) who bullied plenty he came in to contact with in my workplace.

Don't know what it is about the Hawks but they tend to be followed by some of the worst of the worst.  Old Jeff another great example.

Very surprised Freo, Bris & Sydney haven’t got more votes — but I guess the Pies just steal the limelight too easily on this one!

1. Essendon. The Sheedy era, the 2000 GF, the drugs scandal and Hird's unapologetic hubris. I hope that their streak of not winning a final continues infinitum. I was there the day Whelan ironed out Hird and it is the only time in my life I have applauded a player's suffering. 

2. Carlton. I grew up in the Carlton zone where they won multiple flags and we were perennial bottom 4. Their supporters are by far the most insufferable. 

3. Collingwood. This is deep grained and genetic (I am 4th generation Dees) The Eddie Maguire era solidified it and it moved from legislation to constitution. Irrevocable.

 

Sums it up perfectly 

only thing I’ll add, the Maynard incident last year and what followed will never be forgotten wrt Collingwood 

Until last year's finals I would have voted Adelaide. But after that final against the pies it is a no contest. I have said it before their supporters chanting while Gus lay unconscious on ground  has branded them forever.

I hear ya Ang. I hate ‘em with every fibre of my being. I started hating them when I was 10yo and it’s only gotten deeper over the years. I hate everything about that club. I hate their players, their past-players, their supporters, the children and grandchildren of their supporters, their song, their emblem… their very existence. But you know what I hate the most about them? The fact that they elicit this level of hatred, which would never be known to me but for them. It’s too much hatred for one little person. 🤬🤬🤬

Collingwood but West Coast and Sydney not far behind. Essendon would be 2nd but they are a joke and have been for 20 years.


I realised more on the weekend its Hawthorn. Seeing there fans watch another hiding by us is very satisfying. I dont really rate there list and can see them being bottom 4 for a long while. North should leapfrog them in a few years too.

I grew up with the understanding like so may others that I supported Melbourne first and then any team playing Collingwood. And that's still the case.

However, one change is that whereas I also used to despise Collingwood supporters the most, I now have Richmond supporters on top of that particular table.

(For the avoidance of doubt, I chose Collingwood in the poll. And it is certainly a lot easier to detest them when they're actually a good football team.)

1. Geelong: It's starting to wane a bit now that Ducking Sookwood has retired and Dangerfield is slowing up, but the sheer smugness that comes out of that club, led by their coach C.Scott and the aforementioned leaders, is too much for me to handle. Them being good every year and never going away adds to it too. Can't stand them.

2. Port Adelaide: They are just so cringe and they have had a never ending cycle of hateable players, from the Tredrea and Cornes brothers era through to today. Achieved nothing of note but have that arrogance and smugness about them.

3. Essendon: They've been irrelevant for so long but the early 2000s and peptides saga hasn't been forgotten. 

4. Richmond/Collingwood/Carlton: All sort of the same to me. Insufferable fans and not teams I want to see do well, but their actual teams don't bother me.

I actually feared for my life at an Essendon match. Their supporters are downright aggressive and threatening in a violent fashion. About 10 years ago I was on Richmond station waiting for a train after we beat the Pies. This nuff nuff approached me and started mouthing off at me and was right in my face. Some lovely guy came to my rescue but TBH as I do lots of boxing, trained in self defence and am quite fit plus a good head taller than this loser, I could have handled him no problem. He is lucky he didn’t land on the tracks and got taken out by the next train.

Essendon supporters scare me the most.

I’m trying to avoid voting based on traditional rivalries…I experienced the birth of one in the late 50’s/early 60’s (can you guess what it might have been? 😉).

I’ve gone for Brisbane, who I’ve had a hatred for over the past few years, and which has grown deeper in more recent times, all at the hands/mouth of mostly one individual… Dane Zorko!!!

I’m actually a little surprised that at the time of submitting my vote, I was the only one to select them.

Life's too short.  Why fill it with hate

Really depends on the era and who is in the teams at the time. Dirty, grub like players and club cultures (dare I say it) influence my dislike for teams.

1. Colon-wood. Always have a swathe of [censored] in their team at any given time.

2. Geelong and Sydney are a tie for second, much the same as Pies but to lesser degree.

3. Essendon more so now historically, talking the Sheedy era and drugs saga.

Yes their response to Brayshaw being ironed out in Maynard’s third effort to hurt a player in first 10 mins of a game, just showed they are in the majority a pack of dead s..ts!

1. Collingwood (worst of all time including the future)

2. Geelong

3. Carlscum

4. Whoreform

5. Port Adel

6. Crows

7. Freo

8. Wet Coke

9. Essendrug

10. Suns

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
