If the tickets are seated at the back, then ok.
If they are front row (round table) don't go. They will put you on camera. Stay cool if they do.
So.....who are you gona give the tickets to cause we ALL know "you don't watch that crap"???

I don't think they charge general tickets for anyone. You just register your name.

Seems to be divided opinion on this topic, personally I didn't like it one bit. Collingwood supporters are the brunt of a lot of jokes and we can give as good as we get but I will say this, I actually hate going to other boards and seeing Collingwood supporters referred to as scum and filth. It's appalling to call someone things like that.

Agreed, I find it petty, it would be nice if we bucked the trend and stopped it here.

if its the worst thing that's going to happen to you this week, then you should be grateful....i tend to view these people as guys sitting at computers, using fake names and trying to get pretend that you should care what they think...
i'm more pissed off at the local council jacking rates up every year and then going on overseas trips...

I was suggesting that it's highly unlikely that aspergers makes TD's actions involuntary. Beyond that, only he knows how difficult it would be to remain composed.
Something more significant than this obviously. I'd classify this as 'unfair' and a low blow, it's not as though critiquing the way someone clothes themselves is an entirely new concept to humanity, I imagine everyone has done it to varying degrees.
Regardless of how Tradedraft felt, it certainly wasn't the sort of act that warranted the outrage from everyone else. Especially when I imagine there are people here who have laughed at the 'Right in Front of Me' guy or even referred to Robbo as 'Slobbo'. To treat the TD situation as any different to those would be hypocritical.
Look at it objectively, anyone who is caught on camera visibly remonstrating with a player or umpire invariably looks like a tool for doing so.
Put it this way, if Lloyd had not singled TD out for his clothes and instead for his actions (like others have been before), would you still have such strong objections to it being highlighted?
What's your point here exactly?
I'm also pretty sure he knows about that thread too. It's not like he was selected at random either, he provided the material by first charging down the stairs, and then giving the umpires the finger.
I don't believe that saga was anywhere near as racist as it was reported (though there were obviously some racial elements to the booing by the end of it). Had the media not jumped the gun after the first instance against Hawthorn, there's a fair chance it never would've become a thing.

This whole TD-Lloyd thing makes me think of a sling tackle..... you can get 3 weeks if the guy gets a stuffed shoulder but you can easily get nothing if the guy gets up for the next contest...
