This is how I feel about Mitch Marsh, which is why I thought it was poor form crowd booing him the other day. I don’t agree with him in the side and I’m sure we have all posted about it, but booing him is poor form.
Annoyed me more reading comments on FB like “I paid money I’ll boo who ever I want”.
The Melbourne crowd has always given vent to their feelings more than other Australian crowds. Many years ago I was at the MCG for a test match and was sitting at the Richmond end. Keith Stackpole, a Victorian chased the ball from slip, fielded the ball and was roundly booed by the crowd. I asked how could they boo one of their own. The response was he is Collingwood, his old man also played footy at Collingwood, we don't like them anywhere near the Richmond end!!!
