[Mofra]

Ehh I'm pretty sure it was a Tigers supporter that lives in Brisbane. Just because he lives there doesn't mean he goes for the Lions.

It was thought to be a "Richmond fan" for a week and then the media discovered it was a Brisbane fan with his mate's scarf on. It wasn't news by that stage so nobody took much notice.

AFL bosses are switching their hunt for a Richmond fan who spat at the side's players to Queensland, after a tip off that he travelled south for last Friday's game against the Crows.

Disenchanted Richmond fan Jared Robinson could have had no idea just how big his decision to expectorate in front of the departing Tiger players after their thrashing against Adelaide would become.

Thanks for clearing it up.

It was A RICHMOND FAN, not FANS

It wasn't even a Richmond fan!

About source I don't know how to find one like that. I've seen this little debate pop up in several threads and other posters have always shown that is was in fact, a Brisbane supporter. It is widely accepted on the Richmond boards this was the case, someone should be able to post something soon.

Spitting Tiger supporter's act brings $500 fine
By Stephen Moynihan
July 28, 2004

Jared Robinson is caught spitting.
Picture: Channel Nine

A disgruntled Richmond supporter caught on camera spitting after his team's 75-point loss to Adelaide in April copped a $500 fine yesterday.

Queenslander Jared Ezra Robinson was charged with behaving in an offensive manner in a public place after he spat as Tigers players walked off the ground at Telstra Dome after losing to Adelaide.

Television cameras captured Robinson's actions, which a magistrate yesterday branded "ugly behaviour".

The footage was aired across the country and sparked a media frenzy before Robinson turned himself in to police.

The Melbourne Magistrates Court was told yesterday that Robinson, 23, of Primrose Terrace, Red Hill, who was not at the hearing, pleaded guilty.

A prosecution summary submitted to the court said that Robinson was disappointed with his team's performance and walked to the players' ramp so he could "vent his frustration at them".

After calling the players' performance "disgraceful" he spat over the railing towards the team.

He told police he did not intend to spit on the players and the spittle did not go anywhere near them.

He told police that he lost control of his emotions and admitted his behaviour was "unacceptable and offensive".

"I was disappointed, I lost control of my emotions. There is nothing that can excuse it, I was enraged," he said.

The document said Robinson had drunk six schooners of heavy beer before the incident.

He had written letters of apology to the AFL and the Richmond Football Club.

The document said the incident was out of character for Robinson.

Magistrate Caitlin English said she took into account Robinson's remorse and his age but said a conviction was necessary.

"It's a concerning offence," she said. "It's the demonstration of ugly behaviour by a spectator at a sporting event."

Ms English fined Robinson $500 and ordered him to pay $37.50 in costs.

The spitter
Disenchanted Richmond fan Jared Robinson could have had no idea just how big his decision to expectorate in front of the departing Tiger players after their thrashing against Adelaide would become. The “manhunt” appeared to rival the resources ploughed into the gangland killings.

It's not every week a whole plane load of professional drug addicts led by a professional pharmacist come to town... yes we have some nutters and small time crims, but in the civilized world (dont forget to adjust your watches to the 21st century when you touch down)... hell we nothing to compete with the your off field behaviur .....and Swans fans have no time for fan abuse too busy....

* arranging for the club hotel to replace the complimentary chocolates with a 2 litre bottle of black label scotch per player and a smattering of little yellow uppers and a blue downers arranged in a "Big bird" motif on the dressor

* arranging for the Cross to clear the injecting rooms and arranging tables for the expected "line up"

* arranging for Sydney taxi boots bonnets and hoods to be replaced with Kerr proof trampolining material and high tensile but kiddy proof rubber aerials just so he don't do himself damage.

* advising all ambulances to be all on alert for resusitation events

* gessus try guessing how many whoppers and large fries does that big **** in the cheersquad consume per hour?... production levels already on 24*7 red line!!!

* The other c/squad turkey with the pooping veins already have St Vincents cardiac team on standby... Micky O thinks he can arrest the bleeding by wedging a sherrin down his throat this time!

Looking forward to it , you drug enhanced criminals are the only team that give us a decent run for our money.....but many more arrangements to be made yet Watch out GAME ON!!!!

Ha! This shows that he didn't even spit on them!

He missed! lol


Are there any Tiges supporters who have any links to the supposed article saying he was not in fact a Richmond supporter? I have read many times that this was the case.

 

[Thrawn]

There are probably more than half a dozen offences worse than spitting that lead to smaller fines.

I thought the $500 fine was a bit too much, putting it in perspective.

No, he just said that he missed. Doesn't mean he did. I seem to recall Port fans throwing piss around a few times though, so in the context of things, a bit of spit isn't too bad.
