Glenelg!


Oh and Hawthorn. I was in the members on Friday night with my best mate (for 55 years now) and he’s a hawks fan. Some of the hawks fans were absolute flogs but I do like the mojo that the club and their star players have.

Do you remember Darryl Rady t&t? His son is a good mate of mine.

No way.

1. There were too many Hawks fans that I encountered at the game/on the way home that were 10/10 flogs for me to let it slide and go for them. Grown ass adults having a go at me when I was walking with my boy (7) and minding my own business just because I am wearing the colours.

2. The underdog blood in me doesn't default to teams with their kind of recent success.

3. Their team/coach have become a pack of smug asshats. It started out as fun and kids enjoying themselves, but their bratty behaviour has spilled into disrespect and terrible sportsmanship. This is not the role models I want for our youth.

I want to see "The Wizard" or Ginnivan rub something into a players face only to see Port annihilate them from that moment on and come out post-game and say "that was the moment that sparked us".

Great post. I detest Hawthorn.

Nice! His son came through my work as a phd candidate many moons back and we've been close ever since. He's a great guy. Good cricketer!
Works in the hydrogen field now. That's where all the rivers of gold are flowing.

Great pic!
