As much as I hate Collingwood, I can’t understand anyone who abuses opposition supporters without provocation. They’re just supporting their team. You can’t hate them just because they don’t support yours. One night coming home after a massive loss to Collingbog, me and my two brothers arrived at our station. I was the designated driver as they were absolutely off their faces. As we came towards our car, we saw a driver with a Bogpies members sticker on it. They both were debating putting a dent in it. They were only stopped by me telling them they’d be walking home if they did that. So, the eldest compromised on pulling off the offensive sticker.

Certainly not This. Yes.

Please understand, this was a tongue in cheek comment

Geelong, Essendon, Sydney, North, Carlton, Hawthorn are all teams we seem to have a bit of trouble with. I think we must break the North curse if we are to go further (the JLT game doesn’t count.)

What’s everyone’s favourite Footy promotions? I loved “the boys are back in town” in the 90’s and “I’d like to see that”. “The thing about football” was awesome too. Of course we all love “up there Cazaly”. I’m too young to remember it, but Dad said “A little bit of Cazaly” in us was good. I think my favourite would have to be “All fired up” in 1988. Maybe because I’m such a big Pat Benatar fan and the song and film clip they used were so perfect together.

They have pledge per win. I dunno if that’s the answer. Maybe we need to do the opposite. Maybe cut pays per loss.

The females were bad enough. I don’t even want to think about how the men’s were. Urgh

In all fairness, being female opposition supporters are pretty bad no matter what club. If I call out something, there’s always some male fan that feels he has to imitate it in the worst female voice possible. The amount of times I’ve been called a ‘b-tch’ is countless. Victoria Park was shocking. Even as a little girl, I was told by grown men to ‘shut up’ because I wasn’t a Collingwood supporter. I even once had a drunk Collingwood supporter ask me to “show my t-ts” when I was 14.

In a way it was sad for me. Somehow I know deep in my heart if we beat North in the pre, we would have beaten Adelaide. I just know it.

Not really me, but at a bar after a game this old guy came up to me and gave me 5 bucks. Said “since you’re a demon supporter, sweetie, go get a drink to celebrate.” Didn’t appreciate being called ‘sweetie’, but was more than happy to take the guys money. It pays to wear your gear with pride!

My Bruce’s and nephew love going. What’s the train situation like?

Was there for last year.we got my brothers wife to drive and pick us up. It was very packed, but you can park your car down suburban streets if you don’t mind the walk. Maybe get there early as Casey is very populated. Word of warning, AVOID the roundabout at Evans rd as it’s being closed over the weekends for works.

I would say with their bright young side they’ll do fine this year

I’d rather do a Richmond (win a flag and have a good season after to reward new signed up members) than do a Footscray (don’t even make the finals after winning one.)

Not related, butcat a party, some idiot pushed me into a pool fully dressed. My friends bashed him severely. Sorry, about to go to the pool. Thought I’d mention it.

They’re so lucky. I would have dreamed about playing for Melbourne when I was young. I was always told it would never happen. I couldn’t even play for a team because there weren’t any girls leagues where I lived and mixing just didn’t happen back then. So, I was sent to gymnastics and swimming (later diving) while I watched in envy as my brothers got to play, while I had to stick to ‘girls’ sports. Not as if I would have been any good, but I would have loved to give it a go and have fun. I can’t help but envy girls who are able to play in leagues with their brothers. Now they can fulfil their dream of playing for their team, something that was impossible in my day.

We score quite well. We’re just more chosey about our men ?

I don’t know. I never thought people would bring up roots.

I dunno. Wearing it was so horrible. I’d almost rather do the nudie run again (if I was younger.) at least mine was only a Saints one. How did the recipient feel about it?

?

But the good thing was if I posted it, he made a donation to charity. So, some good came out of it.

Has anyone had to wear an opponents jumper as punishment. I had to agree to do it for a profile pic for 3 days. I got the last laugh as I wrote on it “at least you could have washed the sh.. off it. Wait.. it’s your team colours!”

Awesome! I’ve promised to get one on my right breast if we win the premiership. And of my brother will get one on his butt. Those are really great. I love the cheeky demon he’s one of my favourite.

??? Lol mine was past midnight when no one was about except some guys I knew. Only down the street, but no clothes or even footwear allowed. Wont be doing that again in a hurry!

? At least you got to wear underwear and sneakers!
