Roast Lack of noise

[PNess]

This is what cheer squads are for.

Other supporters can support in whatever capacity they deem fit and it's laughable that someone would try make other supporters feel pressured to be more vocal.

Outnumber them, clap louder than the opposition, and dont clap at all after an opposition goal and you've already succeeded without deafening an ear next to you or booing. You're also on your way to becoming more of a gentleman. Well done

Jolly good

AFL cheers are super inventive.
MY-TEAM clap clap clap MY-TEAM clap clap clap

How can you put that out for two hours?

After Collingwood introduced a new style chant, the Coll-ling-wood, every other club has since copied that.

Hawww-thorn... cyyyy-ril...

I love the creative chants that go to a tune of a song which the M10 guys do. Need to get them to spread the word.

Naah, it was my major seminar paper in my undergrad course as well, the unit was social psych, so it was just before fourth year. Over 25 years ago now...glory be!

A good read that I used at the time, and just re-purchased is "The Soccer Tribe", by Desmond Morris, the anthropologist. Goes right into the 'tribal' nature of watching sport, see if you can grab it on Ebay

\EDIT; The swear filter certainly covers all bases..glory be indeed

Thanks mate I will look it up

Funny that I have only ever been attacked and assaulted at AFL...by a Hawks fan.

Never happened in football.

Only time I ever got threatened about footy was at the Ainslie FC's social club on Anzac Day in 2009 when some girl was asking me if I liked footy and I was telling her I was a Hawks fan. All of a sudden my mate taps me on the shoulder and says "mate, shut up about Hawthorn, this guy behind you heard it and wants to smash you because he is a Geelong fan". I wasn't even talking to him and had no clue he was. He later got kicked out for tackling and scuffling with his mate (who also calmed him down while he wanted to 'smash' me) while they were eating dinner. Geelong fans - deranged and unhinged on Big Footy - drunk and violent in person.
