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.
That would be because Dimma is a massive dickhead.
 
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.

People are forgetting he got into a fight at halftime too huh? When did Jamie Elliot do that?

I wasn't at the game so not one of the people who booed but he was incredibly inflammatory in our last match (and also kicked the winner)
 
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.
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.

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.

I 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.

From where I was in the crowd you couldn’t even hear the announcer over the booing when the presentation started
 
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!

JHF was boo'd at our game that year. Our supporters are by and large morons.

That said, plenty of racists still in the crowd.

I was there too and the umpires were walking off at the time Pendles was giving his speech. Perfect example of officials not reading the room.
 
the only player i've actively booed in recent years was noah balta when i was at norf vs. richmond
 
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.
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 really didn't look like there were 28k in attendance either. Lots of empty seats/sections

Walked through Johnny Walker about 11.45. Wondering which one was WindyHill.
It was me lad throwing out the beverages. Met a great man from Warrnambool, made my day, he was an absolute star.
Dimma s is a whiney little birch. Im ashamed he had anything to do with our club.
Dimmatina was loved when he played for us. Loved.
The current version is a shocker. So good his last game as a tiger coach was us. He absolutely tore strips off Richmond players after that game , the stories are fantastic. Along the lines of how could you lose to that shit mob etc etc. magnificent.
