A lot of disappointment and frustration here, but guess what - "will" is not an error if you read it as "the game plan "will" take care of the D's".

I think we've discovered part of the reason for our horrible start. How is that supposed to inspire anything but a collective groan?
Okay here's my 30 second effort. We'd probably cop a fine but I'd chip in to pay it.
'Paul Roos is back in town
Paid for by the A.F.L.
Let's murder the Demons
And send them straight back to hell'
Would work better if we (the supporters) were called the murder instead of the 19th man.

I think the banner is the least of our worries at the moment.
That's how i read it. If read in its entirety, it makes the most sense as 'will'.
It's definitely not a priority, just one of the many things that need improvement.
It just goes hand in hand with all else at the moment..
A good summary of where we're at..

I saw the 'Crows Supporter Group last week when i went to the Dogs game, was in a good spot to see them and how they went etc.
Quite embarrassing really that they wear 'name badges' and no disrespect but, mainly older (probably 45+) women who seem very averse to my cheering and were aghast that i yelled out and sledged a dogs player for throwing their head back to get a soft free.
I MEAN CMON. Cant believe they are the official cheersquad and supporter group. Staggering.

And there lies the problem with the message. A banner message should not need that form of interpretation. It needs to be simple yet effective. Yesterday's was neither.
Yeah, I didn't say it was a good banner, just that it was not incorrect!
The same people write these banners as write greeting card messages...

But that doesnt rhyme....
Agreed, the banner is such a stupidly minor thing, can't believe it's even being discussed.
The issue was that both our "Support Groups" were soundly drowned out by a couple of hundred demon supporters....

I was in the vic based cheer squad for a few years a while back and it takes a certain sort of person to sit behind the goals, get dressed up like that, and a fairly rare sort thats prepared to stand up and get a chant going when the crowd is quiet. I didnt like sitting behind the goals which is why I stopped, credit to the people who do it.
Fun fact, that chant after goals "goooo yoooooou crOOOOooooows" I started that with a couple of guys from the vic cheersquad all those years ago.

See you next Tuesday is a good substitute when you cant yell it.I LOVE the C word. Used to hate it with a passion, in fact smacked anyone if they used it in my presence. Then I worked with one and the word just rolls off the tongue effortlessly now.Of course, I don't say it in front of my prudish husband or son.

Come find us on the hill ya bugger.
Dunno where you were mate but we had reports of being able to hear the pride from each grandstand.
And every time their cheer squad (which is bigger than the pride) started a cheer, we'd start one immediately and shut them up.

Not to mention that they had the small benefit of being in front all game.

The CSG would do no harm looking at this thread for banner inspiration. Some of these are brilliant compared to the limp efforts of the CSG.

Just when the CSG couldn't stoop any lower...
There's reports that they abused a Crows supporter who was forced to leave tonight's match early due to illness. Seriously how sick are some of the people in this group.

Yeah saw that
What do you mean "any lower"? I think they've been great lately.
