Roast Vent Thread

I can't stand the word troll, I googled it a while ago to find out what it was and was shocked at how broad the term is used.

Why do people call people 'trolls' if they have no argument to fight back with against a fellow fan. It's beyond beige. "I've got no answer 'piss off troll', heh heh heh".

Maybe if you live in a land of rainbows and fairy floss unicorn farts, those not from your lands are feared and seen as monsters.

What I don't get is supporters (of any Club) who take criticism of the club they support personally. I mean really, is your life that empty you need to fill it by living vicariously through the club.

Sort of agree with most of that.
What i question is this. IF WE WERE INTO NB, Why would you go and get HIM but just before he arrives to do his job, you tie his hands behind his back by making most of the decisions that would have fallen to him.

I actually think we got lucky in the fact NB has shown himself to be a shrewd operator AND HE FELL INTO OUR LAP.

I agree. Let's hope he still has the goods. That's all I worry about when looking at what transpired prior to him joining us. Had he not been demoted I can guarantee you "coming home" would have meant shit to him like it meant for the last 37 years. All we can do is hope fate shines a light on us for once. Unfortunately we have gotten to that point where we rely on fate now.

Remember when Sheedy "came home". Good times.

I knew the day it was announced that the 2 year extension given to dimwit by the board was going to send shockwaves through the club. Right there is the reason I have grave doubts on any footy desicion it makes even the Balme one. Until I see evidence on the scoreboard everything else means shit. For to long we have been had by fanfare and we are gunna for me to have any faith in what they decide.

Let's face it dude. We bag Casey etc but ****, he flew Browny in his helicopter to view property etc and we landed the ****ing doozy and we wonder why we couldn't land Treloar. Like wake the **** up Benny and get with the program stoopid. Tigerheads are going gaga because Eddie hired his missus and clinched the deal. Stiff ****ing shit he got the signature and that's all she wrote. Just like Casey did with Browny and the dogs fans spewed. Tell ya what though but for that fateful night at Etihad when our world collapsed with the leg beak I am positive we would have gone close with Browny and Richo in the team. Fate once again the Damico curse struck

Threads that run to several hundred ****ing pages of bile. That'd be one. Over long threads that have lost the plot in general. And people getting pissy about being told to stop turning everything into a rant about the club

Maybe someone on The Footy Show said something untoward about left handed pro vegan bi lesbian non conformarmist pro milatant baby whales and the club is taking a stand.

Footy show is full of triple m, they are still pissed with the boys for boycotting the station afiter dick Ed's Carro comments.

Except it wasn't the comment that were Caroline's problem, it was who said them. She would have had more of a platform to show how damaged she was by Eddie's words had she not had an issue with Tony Shaw saying basically the same thing. Honestly anyone who thought what McGuire said promoted violence against Women is either a Muppet or just one of the ever growing clowns in this world who just need to tell everyone how offended they are to show how much they feel they are better than everyone else.

What I don't get is supporters (of any Club) who take criticism of the club they support personally. I mean really, is your life that empty you need to fill it by living vicariously through the club.

It helps when I'm more critical of Richmond than even the opposition mates bagging Richmond.

But I agree, some people take it like you are offending a family member.

can't that same logic apply to supporters who act as if its the end of the world if their club isn't or hasn't been successful?

Same theory. A lot of emotional attachment involved.

What I dont get is supporters ( of any Club) who are displeased with the club they support, take it so personally that they need to repeat the same message over and over, even if its not in context. Like for example a thread about apples. Said poster would state " Yeah apples, Dimwit hates then, thats why you should not trust him!".

I mean really, is your life that empty you need to fill it by living vicariously through message boards ?

 

[NaturalDisaster]

also I do not have a probllem with people who are critical of the club

I do however, have a problem with supporters who bag out the club more than opposition supporters do.

That is the beauty of sport IMO.

Richmond for example has been a part of my life, all of my life. How many things can you say has done that ? I love that I support the club like it is family. To be frank, it is what is unique about our club supporters, its in part why we as a club will always have support. Richmond is like one of my kids, when my child does something bad, yeah i get upset etc but ill never abandon him/her and ill defend him/her till my last breath.

Why ? Simply the code we follow for some is a passion. Nothing wrong with that. Personally, I can take our own being upset with the club. Have no issue with it honestly. It does get tiring when the same message is repeated over and over, like seriously, I got the message the first 100 times . What does make me get on the offensive is when a opposition scrub likes to slag the club off.

Without doing a full statistical analysis, I reckon there is just a slight remote chance that it is not just the anti DH, FJ, PO, BH camp that are guilty of rehashing old (all be it relevant at this stage) messages.

In terms of who attacks who, I tend to notice that the antichrists attack employees of the club, more than BF members, but it is more so the religious who attack the BF antichrists rather than the other way around.

Who's talking rapture levels on the threatomitor? The club is a continuous failure across all levels whilst the trends of all the other clubs (except Gold Coast to this point) suggest that this is a enigmatic occurrence. Those who can't see that have their heads up their collective arses.

I am an investor in the Club. Like any of my investments it needs to prosper, if it doesn't then those holding it's prosperity back need to be removed.
