I was able to point out that he didn't actually belong there, either - it was Collingwood's ground, not Fitzroy's. Unlike most people, I didn't have much sympathy for Fitzroy supporters. When South moved to Sydney, Fitzroy people and management became huge "Swans bashers" over what they perceived to be preferential treatment we were getting.
