You are an idiot.

I found it anyway!

What the hell is the point of that button? Apart from giving people the opportunity to annoy the f*** out of everyone else in the store.

This was in the pre season this year so I doubt the seating arrangements are as normal. Not sure what the stand I sat in was called, but I would not call it modern that's for sure.
Well the city end stand is modern by WA standards, it was built around 15 years ago.

The 3 tier stand down the other end I think was built in the 1960s or 1970s, it's been there since I used to go there as a kid in the 1980s to watch Subi play in the WAFL in front of about 5000 people. Our favourite game was to go up to the 2nd or 3rd tiers which were mostly empty and drop left over footy budgets and scrunched up newspapers on to people sitting below, then watching them as they reacted with a mixture of confusion and anger.

With all due respect to Juddy (great player), I would like to propose a tag in his honour:

#putyourchickenwingsout
Great player but dog act. Leigh Adams hasn't been the same player since.

Leigh Madams ? Is that list clogger still on LOL Norf's list ??

Norf fans have such a chip on their shoulder, that's a big reason why Burnt Chook reels you lot every single time when he trolls them on the bay.

Reels us in to laugh at him?!

He wasn't a list clogger prior to the chicken wing incident. Instead needed a shoulder reconstruction, can barely lift his hands above his head and has no confidence in parts of his game that were otherwise good (contested ball winning and tackling).

Well I do take exception to a North fan calling Judd a 'sociopath' on your board, it was an unfortunate accident, Judd didn't set out to ruin his career, I never really rated him that highly before that incident anyway.

There is a lot of angry posters on the North board (and not just talking about the Judd issue either) every gameday, a few nuffies blow their gasket (and I thought the Carlton board was bad)

Shouldn't we be really celebrating Judds career without focusing on those couple of incidents. He clearly wasn't a dirty player. One of the all time greats.

Guess that makes it okay then?! It was not an accident, it was malicious.

Every board gets a bit angry on game day (especially if things aren't going well). The team is performing well below expectation and it is their board so they are entitled to do so.

Of course. Carlton and West Coast supporters will and I'm sure there are multiple threads to discuss how amazing he was. However, not everyone has to bow down to Judd (and this isn't one of those threads). Great player and I feel bad for him not going out on his terms.

On the topic of Judd, I can't really ever forgive him for what he did. It was absolutely disgusting to see a bloke deliberately trying to injure a bloke who had a long history of shoulder problems and it was a definite contributor to the shoulder problems that he ended up needing surgery on. Patch's 2012 season was career best and he was arguably the most valuable to our team prior to surgery.

'Great footballer, shit bloke' is how Judd will be remembered in my eyes.
