Be honest, there has been little to get excited about so far. When the results pick up the tone of the forum will change, but if you can't stand contrary opinions then an internet forum is not the place for you.

It could stay with them for life and be a catalyst for a lifelong association with the club. Well done to those that gave up their time, hope you all enjoy the game. Too right. My kids are going to their 2nd ever game today. Their 1st was Pearson's last game when we lost to Blackburn. And they loved that day. Hopefully this one will blow their mind.

Ewe Ram Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Looked great and Vydra said it was great walking out seeing that. But if some fans think that players respond better to booing then you won’t change their minds. I’ve been there before putting flags out on a freezing cold day and I wish I could ram one up the noses of those who moan about them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssendonRam Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I showed a soccer-loathing mate the scene at PPS before the match and he was absolutely awestruck by the scene. Could not believe how good it looked and sounded. I then, however, made the mistake of showing Ben (who is part Aboriginal) the photo at the start of this thread...he immediately said “it looks like the KKK”. I had another look and I don’t know how I didn’t see it earlier....it DOES look like a meeting of the KKK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As GR says, we'll take any of the fine margins that gives us an advantage. The "home" effect has been quite well researched in social psychology and sport psychology {"social facilitation"} and shows that increased noise, colour and movement "in support" of the home team produces notable increases in noradrenalin, exertion and performance. So @King Kevin please flap it around with pride tomorrow...and I'm talking about your flag. Did you have to cut up the bin bags or was that already done? It used to be proper material...... another sign of cutting back. There were two flags on my seat and nowhere to get rid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
