That would be because Dimma is a massive dickhead.Watching Rowell more closely it’s obvious as f*** he’s using the ump as a screen. Deserves a suspension if he’s doing that and hits an ump again. Don’t know why Dimma again being a dickhead about it.
Andrew’s did carry on a bit last year. It was not simply that he played well and stuck it to the crowd at that end when he kicked the winner.Not that I think there is not a little bit of racism factor. Personally I find booing childish but each to their own I guess.
That wasn’t about Pendlebury, I was there that day. The booing started before the siren and continued after the siren due to umpiring decisions in the last couple of minutes that robbed us of the chance to try and win the game.He was being a bit of a knob yesterday too. Last year he had a crack at Lav and caused a half-time melee before bobbing up to win the game before running the boundary shooshing the crowd. I was watching him closely yesterday and before he gave away a free to Hobbs (I think it was) he was roaming around bumping and just generally trying to get in the face of people down back. He then missed saving a Wright goal and went back into his shell a bit. There were muted boos but nothing like for Pendlebury when he got the Anzac medal that year.
Booing is for kids pantomime villains and for classless w***ers at the footy. Anyone who can't see how it might be considered racial is an idiot as far as I am concerned.

I referenced it because of how obvious the noise of the booing was in comparison to the "muted" booing that I witnessed yesterday.That wasn’t about Pendlebury, I was there that day.

They didn’t wait for it to settle when they started the presentation, and then Bucks had a crack at the fans during his speech coz he thought it was about Pendles, so now everyone thinks it was about him for the rest of history. Pendlebury didn’t do anything wrong.
From where I was in the crowd you couldn’t even hear the announcer over the booing when the presentation startedI referenced it because of how obvious the noise of the booing was in comparison to the "muted" booing that I witnessed yesterday.
I was there that day too. Regardless of why they were doing it (umpiring I think because it influenced the game), it was disrespectful to Pendles who deserved better and Bucks was absolutely spot on with his comments for mine.
Saints fans were booing Battle. North fans boo JHF, Dogs fans boo Smith.
Moronic.
Player movement will only grow, these morons will boo all game soon!

Dimma has always been about manipulating the rules as much as possible.Watching Rowell more closely it’s obvious as f*** he’s using the ump as a screen. Deserves a suspension if he’s doing that and hits an ump again. Don’t know why Dimma again being a dickhead about it.
Well said Braddles
It was a strange vibe. Early start time and 'small' opponent probably didn't help, but you are absolutely right in that really wasn't any energy form the crowd. Even when we were right in it there just wasn't much going on. It felt like we all knew what was coming.It's like a funeral inside the stadium these days, I've been to every home game in 2025, even when we win you can feel the energy from the stands is dead.
I liked some of the kids games today but I just feel the whole club including the home crowds are just going through the motions.
1 week closer to the end I guess.
Got that from his first AFL coachDimma has always been about manipulating the rules as much as possible.
It was me lad throwing out the beverages. Met a great man from Warrnambool, made my day, he was an absolute star.Walked through Johnny Walker about 11.45. Wondering which one was WindyHill.
Dimmatina was loved when he played for us. Loved.Dimma s is a whiney little birch. Im ashamed he had anything to do with our club.
The plot has thickened. Jonathan Brown?It was me lad throwing out the beverages. Met a great man from Warrnambool, made my day, he was an absolute star.
