We got there at about 11.00am - (upstairs MA Noble) and to our shock we had actually beaten the oldies to the seats

I'm not that old.

Actually, I got there at noon managed to get seats at the very front of the upstairs level, probably in front of you Wardy.

There is nothing worse than Port supporters. They are the feral scum of the Earth; the most rabid, one eyed, arrogant supporters you will ever find. I hate them passionately.

Perhaps I have been at uni for too long and the apathy has inflitrated my bloodstream, but it's not the supporters I cannot stand. I have no problem with giving Port supporters a good natured dig, but abusing them like the group who sat behind us, was a little more than uncomfortable. We must pity them for liking such a sorry-arsed team, and focus the abuse on those more worthy, like GOLDSTINK and EDDIE MAGUIRE!

The match itself was perhaps not a match full of great skills but it was tough close and competitive and of course most importantly the Swans won.

Watched it on TV and would agree. Mind you, Port plays a similar game, and so do most of the other clubs. Don't know why we cop it from the media (and Demetriou). If we'd kicked straight it would have been described as scintillating.

On a Port board Sydney supporters were compared to Collingwood supporters by someone at the game..I don't know if that is good or bad.

That would have been port1978 - and she was talking about her husband swans63

Amen.

Cher - we do wear red as well - but Jo is a Collingwood supporter (I know, I know why do we speak too her - but she's not a bad girl considering!) please be assured on that one.

A couple of weeks ago we got the seats in the first row at the stairs and there were a couple of seats in front - well these guys were standing behind us and either Ange or I had just given the umpires a bit of a serve and one of them said "lets not sit there those women are feral" to which I turned around and replied "we are passionate, we're not deaf!" - I wanted to call him a dickhead but then that would make me seem feral!
Cruiser you probably were in front of us - I think there should be some signal system for RWOers! so as we can determine who's who!

LOL, nah...if that's the Port board I'm thinking of, I'm far from welcome there!
I don't have a problem with Sydney supporters....especially the Sydney cheersquad, they were great. The only Sydney supporters I have a problem with are all those dickheads who decided to leave in the last quater......WTF??? You were winning, why leave???

Every team has their fair share of feral, rapid, moronic supporters, as they do decent supporters. Some teams may have a few more of either, but I'm not sure how significant the proportional difference is.

It's the Sydney mentality - plan to get into the ground just as the game starts, of course ignoring parking issues or whatever, so you get there just before quarter time. Then, having realised that parking is an issue and not wanting to get stuck again, when the game is no longer in the balance, head off to beat the traffic.

How do u differentiate rapid supporters and normal supporters??

It is not just a Sydney thing leaving early, you see it hear in Melbourne too, even when winning. I think the difference in Sydney is the "walk across" to the exit at the southern end of the ground (or left of screen on the tele). Whereas most other stadiums you walk up/down the stands and out, so it is not so noticeable, maybe.

Isnt the southern end right of screen? Or have I been watching a mirror image all this time?

My mistake, my right brain said left and my left brain said right and I just got confused.

Do we kick more goals if you watch it thru a mirror??
