We're Going To Struggle BIG TIME

[Rizzo]

I think this discussion has moved dramatically from the orginal topic. If you guys wish to continue the South or no-South roots discussion may you should start another post? My preference would be to respect the different opinions here and move on.

Rich is right - it's all been said and done - please start a new thread if you want to continue that discussion.

OMG Snajik! Those were my thoughts exactly! Wasn't even going to give this thought a mention until u brought it to light. Well perceived

Thread just didn't seem worth it for a Victorian to reply to. A Victorian who happens to be very close to a particularly prominent Collingwood player.

Go to Melbourne and talk to the old south supporters, most support other clubs or have given the game away, they are pissed off with losing their club.

ROFLMAO You are so naive! But your name must suggest you are indeed correct
I'm going to enjoy your posts throughout the year oh magnificent one. That is, if indeed, Des allows you to continue berating other members of this board in the way that you are. I don't see you lasting long. As for me, well, a suspension for getting rid of the ilks of you will be well worth it.

Woah settle down. Sure what he posted was crap, wrong and against what most of this board thinks, we should let him be after all no one has supported what he had to say and he hasn't posted since.

In Melbourne much of the attachment comes through hereditory lines. "Once a Sainter, always a Sainter". Hence the respect and emotional attachment is continued from generation to generation. So somebody denouncing the Swans South Melbourne history is indirectly denouncing them AND their family.
