Which opposition supporters are the worst?

[Doctor J.]

Its Collingwood first,second and third.

Although Saints supporters are getting closer. I think its got a bit to do with their expectation of the team. They really believe they are a premiership winning team, and no one else in the league is even close to their talent.

Its perhaps summed up by a caller to 3AW earlier on in the year. Rang in and posed the question that the current St Kilda side is simply the best in the league and no other player in AFL would get a game in it. Healy, "50 Game" Dwayne and Lyon could not believe the stupidity of the man. They kept naming players from other clubs, and all this fool would say was "who ya gunna drop".

Judd. "who ya gunna drop"
Pavlich. "who ya gunna drop"
Cox. "who ya gunna drop"
Cousins "who ya gunna drop"
McLeod "who ya gunna drop"
Ricciuto "who ya gunna drop"

On and on it went. No matter what player they mentioned this tool believed that there was not A player in the current AFL who could get a game with St. Kilda. A microcosm of their arrogance.

Also marvel at the double standards of St. Kilda supporters. Last years semi, I was told many times to get back to gay town as it became clear we would lose another final. If you trawl through the pages of Saintsational (cough, spit spit) you will come across many homophobic posts directed toward Sydney and linking the football team to the gay community. This coming from a club where the no 1 ticketholder is Molly Meldrum. The irony of it all is lost on many of them I'm sure.

One word for the lot of them.

Peasants!!!

i have only experienced freo, WC and collingwood supporters and i've come to the conclusion that WC fans are ********heads

We had a horrible man sitting behind us at the Collingwood match. He was rude and awful. I slammed him (I forgot what I said, exactly) and all the people around me laughed and cheered. It was rather fun.

Every other Collingwood fan I've met has been ok, though. I went to the Collingwood v. Kangas match when the Roos came back from about 20 points down with about 10 minutes to play, and the Collingwood fans didn't seem too bad at all.

all of a sudden out of the corner of my eye I saw a Cats supporter come towards the car and then threw the contents of the cup they had been drinking in through the driver side of my car.

That's a shame and not at all like my experiences with Geelong supporters - you should have driven into the ****.

For me, Port and St Kilda are the equal worse. Richmond are feral but fairly harmless.

Would have to say Port, the only time I have ever been in a police escort out the ground after the game was at AAMI stadium vs Port

I used to love Cats fans. Have a very fond memory of a game at Kardinia on the terraces when Plugger kicked a heap. The QF changed my mind - I sat in front of some very agro types, who gloated and spent more time ribbing us than watching the game...Mind you - I took great pleasure in pointing out the way to the airport as they sat in stunned silence after the siren!

But worst for me are Carlton. They use the "c" word about their own team. I don't like any fans that get stuck into their own team to the degree that they do.

I had an argument when we played Melb at the "dome"...with an elderly couple who were Swans fans. All they did was bag the Swans ...and Barry in particular. They kept abusing him and telling him to "do something" to Hall, by the time he had kicked 6 goals I had a go back at them. Their comeback..."Neitz has kicked 6 goal too".

Oh well, in the end Hally kicked 7 and was unanimously voted best on the ground. And the other Swans supporters around mebacked me up and said that they wouldn't have been as polite to them as I was!!!

They're all talk and no action though the Port fans.

Yeah, but they were playing for draft picks and their supporters wanted them to lose at that stage.

My worst experience this year was with Port fans at the SCG. We were sat next to a few rabid fans who kept waving flags at us and taunting us about how long it had been since we'd won a flag.

Round 2, Sunday 9th April - I do hope I see them again ...!

For me, the worst was always the Kangaroos supporters. They seemed the most demented and insane.

But they're too dumb to know any better (Hope my brother-in-law doesn't find this thread, although he's the exception to the rule )

It's BigFooty mate. Hardly the brains trust of the Internet there
