How does this differ to any club in any competition?

Ditto unless the game is in the balance.
All you morally superior supporters can have your traffic jams.

What's wrong with drinking beer in the Magarey room after each game?
Or do you blokes have to rush home to your missus?
Or boyfriend if that is what you prefer.

Each to their own and each should not be judged by the other.

If your a Port supporter what have you really had to deal with in your lifetime? A Premiership drought in the SANFL glory years of about 12 years while Sturt and North won Grand Finals, and the brief Matty Primus period in the AFL? It's like following around the school bully of course Port have an army of supporters !

I work their doofus, we're not allowed to watch the games when we finish so I head straight to my local pub for a few deserved beers!
PS I didn't leave the MCG early on Easter Monday.

Breaks my heart a little bit that - I've got two girls who love going to the Dogs games and that piece feels a little too close to home.
I wonder if this is Andrew's personal story.
