Well played North supporters

Postby norwood8 » Tue Jun 24, 2014 6:30 pm

Just heard on Triple M that the Crows were abused and made to feel not welcome at the club, during and after the game on the weekend. Taylor Walker having sook and saying it's happened throughout the season as well. Maybe some of the message is still getting across.

So hats off to the North supporters who achieved this great feat. =D> =D>

Some of the players, including some who've proudly represented Norwood over the years, copped some over the top abuse at the Parade apparently, which imho isn't acceptable. Onfield sure bag the opposition as you like about dropped marks, copping a bath from an opponent yada yada, usual footy banter, but personal abuse towards blokes who had no say in the change to the SANFL doesn't make a heap of sense to me.

There is a right way and a wrong way to go about this. Attacking the players isn't the right way.

The management team is an entirely different matter.....

I don't condone personal abuse at any level or in anyway shape or form, but a group of supporters letting the team know they aren't welcome, sits fine with me.

Yeah that's fair enough as long as it's not anything OTT

Lol was anyone complaining in the mid 1990s when the Crows fans were screaming and spitting at their own players after they headed down the race after a loss?

Well done North fans. Must be a real shock for the Crows. It probably literally blows Smart's and Trigg's minds that anyone other than Port supporters don't support the Crows.

Maintain the rage, people.

The facts are that they are NOT welcome in the competition.
I don't believe that personal attacks would be the order of the day, just the usual 'booing' & banter.

Sheesh, if they can't handle a few hundred North Groggies having a go, imagine them @ Docklands with Collingwood or Carlton Fans :lol:

Lucky the current players don't have to venture to Vic Park then.

Diddums Walker

how about you go and cry to your management ask where your 4000 fans are??

The players may not have asked to be in the comp but they are and they will continue to wear the abuse, especially now given this admission.

Imagine what they'd have copped if they were in the Amateurs.

I trust that the Magpies are treated in similar regard by those who bother patronising their trial games? It would be sheer bias to abuse one interloper and not the other.

I would've thought the players are the last ones that deserve this type of abuse. Last I checked, it wasn't their fault. Yeh sure, give em heaps during the game but that's the part I enjoyed, battling against another set of blokes, then being able to have a laugh and a beer afterward.

Those in charge of our club would be angry that not all its supporters are welcoming the Crows with opening arms, like they no doubt are.

We previously weren't given any voice on this issue. Maybe now we're finding some.

I doubt the abuse they're getting is anything a league footballer shouldn't be able to handle. Nor is it likely to be anything out of the ordinary for an Sanfl game. If the mothers of the 18 y.o. freshly drafted sooks don't like their boys hearing naughty language from the nasty men when they take them to football on Saturday in their Mercedes 4WDs, that's their problem.

Very silly of the Crows to highlight this as they'll only draw more abuse, at least in the short term. They're playing away every week so shouldn't expect to be made welcome by opposition supporters, especially while out on the ground. If they want to feel more welcome, they should do as I have done and encourage the club to better promote their SANFL side and try and get more supporters to the games.

Tell them to host a home game then. Won't have to come into someone else's club rooms and try and mingle with their supporters. They could hold their after match function in a bus shelter with the 5 fans they currently draw to an SANFL game.
