          Ah, back into defining who are "true fans" I see. Thought we had canned that topic some time ago.

I can't believe the Hawks constantly get their friends Stevic and Schmitt for the big games that count......more than a coincidence? It sucks big time! That 'umpire respect' program at the Hawks is really paying dividends, year in, year out.
            Especially stevo when the Hawks also got Margetts, who conveniently spent time in pre-season training with the Hawks.

            Stevic has not umpired one single Hawks game this year until now.... certainly been saving him up for the big games. The fact they've called him up for the qualifying final must mean they are a bit worried out Waverley way though....

            Just ignore the nonsense Meg.

            Talk of 'true/real/insert stupid term here fans' and the like also frustrates me no end, especially when it comes from those with a clear agenda, and are hardly in a position to start mud slinging over what is a 'true fan' - unless of course we are talking about 'true fans' of 'stadiums' and not fans of 'football teams'.

                    no longer Jack or Macca leading into our first finals game?

                      I just put in for 10 tickets ( just to see what was available) in best available and could have purchased 10 tickets in 106 row 24, yet that whole section on the wing was unavailable when tickets first opened Tuesday last week. Whats the.bet that all those tickets for ANZ members that kept the game away from the SCG were set aside in that section and havent been taken up? I bet the AFL gave away heaps of tickets for GWS representation too.

                            Yep, it really gives me the @@@@s, but I have moved into the vacant seats generated by that approach a few times.

                              Is he suggesting there are 70000 odd tickets sold already? I hope so but I would be surprised.

                              Where did you hear this?

                                It popped up on afl 360 on their news bar.
                                It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.
