A guy I used to work with saw Joffa being picked up by a stretch limo on Friday - he thought he was seeing things - but it was him. Doing it tough obviously (limo back to his presidential suite at the Intercon no doubt) still reckon the away teams should be put up at the Formula 1 on Liverpool road!!! Or the youth hostel;-)
I am not so sure they are died in the blood supporters. I was heard to tell fellow swannies that I had met my first swannie footy ferals on Fri night. Actually got my six footer friend to sit on other side of new best friend who had an hysterical and foul mouthed DH on the other side of her. You can always tell when they are part time. Referees is the word to give them away. Things appeared to quieten down a bit after the much much smaller female had a bit of a buffer between her and the foul mouthed idiot. My six footer seemed to think the bloke may have been quite a few cents short of a dollar anyway.
However the girls behind us who thought they were at a Justin Beiber concert were a force to be reckoned with. What happened to the polite finger tap and silent whoop whoop I ask.
If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhood
When I watched footy in the outer when the Swans were South Melbourne the banter was light hearted, although Carlton supporters always took things more than a bit seriously. These days there is no shortage of boofheads who can't hold their ink, and now that any swear word is acceptable, there is no shortage of dills who love to hear their own voice and attract attention. You can only judge a book by the cover until it opens it's mouth.
If you are at the match just watch the masters at it...Hawthorn supporters. Poor losers and ungracious winners.
