Just had a look at the North board. Jesus. I need a shower. What a cesspit.
I don’t think the big footy North sub is representative of their supporter base; at least I hope it’s not.
Yep I know a few north supporters and they don’t exhibit that level of insanity.I don’t really hate North that much. They’re just another club, and I had plenty of mates at school who supported them, but I did have a gander at their preview thread (out of curiosity) and spent a fair bit of time cringing at lame humour and crazy levels of mania.

It's coz we're exceptionalWhat's with calling us * that's the most pathetic thing I've seen on bf I reckon...
With what? Most restaurants don’t accept bottle caps and sticks as legal tender.That’s harsh mate…there were a couple more ordering food
Ham kicks the winning goal and Zaka almost cost us the game (calling for the ball from Snelling), so yeah this makes sense.

It's not, mate. A lot of the board has little man syndrome. They attack anyone and anything bigger than them (which as North fans means supporters of every other team bar the expansion clubs. Also there's a bizarrely intense hatred of the Bombers on there which I just can't figure out) as well as fans who are realistic about the club. Can be a really toxic place at times. I copped a truckload of shit for saying we were clearly the worst side in the comp before this season, when blind Freddy could've made that observation. Don't get the wrong idea about us. The toxic people on the board are a minority within the supporter base, far cry from all the North fans I've known IRLI don’t really hate North that much.

Bit rough blaming the guy for calling for the ball. Its the guy who kicks it that has the responsibility to assess his options (especially when you've marked in range of the goals) and hit the target he chooses to go for. So yeah its like 90% Snelling and 10% Zaka at worst for that particular play.
I thought Zaka's defensive tackling was quite good last week. Neither Ham or Zaka did much offensively (Ham's nice snap the only highlight).
Anyway they might just be lessening the load for Ham for a week (the way they did for Cox) and may bring him back in next week.
That post from Snake Baker is bordering on pyschopathic and deserved to be called out. Saddest part is, with so much vitriol, it is now accepted on club boards to hate us (Carlton and Hawthorn to hav there own affinity towards us for some reason).They've probably forced a real rivalry at this point. In saying that, there's a real amount of hate for us on that board, the likes of which I've never seen on BF.

Bigfooty really is not what it once was
Heh, you'll need to be a touch more specific with statements like this.That post from Snake Baker is bordering on pyschopathic and deserved to be called out.

Assuming you mean the untouchables quote in game day?
