Re: AFL Rd 10 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood

Also, something that disgusted me on a personal level was how much our fans were bagging our players, and their approach at the actual game. I was sitting in Row H. Bottom deck behind the goals, and whilst I face palmed and groaned a lot about our method, the idea of a supporter is to support. In good and bad times. Not just bag our players incessently. Its not on.
There was one guy who was absolutely gushing about how good collingwood were, and I found myself looking at him, and wondering who he was there to support and found myself checking his beanie and club logo multiple times to double check. Also, hearing frustrated fans line up our cheer squad was something else that I thought was quite poor.
If you don't like whats going on in the cheer squad, pay your money and front up. Or start a chant somewhere. Having a go at people is not on IMHO and I dont see the point of rocking up to bag our players and wax lyrically about how good the opposition are. For anyone interested I was in M2 in the Shane Warne stand right next to our cheer squad.
