I'll tell you what -we are in the eight and have a chance at a flag - reason enough for Saints fans to get along to games and roar -especially since Harvs may announce his retirement. If things go our way.. who knows. Forget all this claptrap about boring footy keeping fans away..we have a real chance at the big one in September.

Ok. so let me get this straight... We only support and cheer our club when they play an "exciting" brand of footy? Or smashing sides by 100 points?
Thank god some of you fairweather flogs weren't around in the 80's.
If you want "entertainment" go to the farking movies.
Win, lose or draw, get out there and do everything you can to help the players.
Sunday's game was an armwrestle and we prevailed. Funny, that we kicked 100+ points (not 48 ponits). How exciting to do want it to get?
What made it appear ordinary, was the lack of atmosphere. If it was a full house with Port supporters going nust... it would have been hailed as a great game.

The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

hear, hear... I agree with most everything that was said in this topic. I would've killed to go to the game last week. Port is still one of three teams I've failed to see live since I started attending football games. (The other two being the kangaroos and... actually no, that's it. I forgot I have seen Sydney live)
Anyway, from the radio, I thought we were bloody playing at AAMI Stadium. I'll be there this Saturday night though and screaming along with everyone else and cheering on our hero banger.... Can't wait for it!

Re: Passionless Saints Supporters
I agree whole heartedly Saint Bev, I was also at sponsors luncheon, sitting on 2nd level, and it was way too quiet and well behaved for me too, so at half time I went back to my usual reserved seat on Level 1, where people are alot more vocal and passionate. I have sat on level 2 a few times, and I have found that it is generally alot quieter.Saint Bev wrote:On Sat we went to the Sponsors Luncheon. Our seats were centre of the ground, 2nd level. Only saw 2 PA supporters in the area, yet you could have heard a pin drop. What the hell is wrong with people? Even when Harves went down, nothing................ I was telling them all off, Melbourne supporters truely don't know how lucky they area. During the game you could hear the PA supporters alot more than you could hear ours. Pathetic effort

The 'exciting' game plan isn't about entertainment - it is actually logical in terms of creating noise.
Think about it, how much more noise does a running goal generate than a mark-and-goal? Why? Because it's more exciting and spontaneous.
The fast, free-flowing football of 2003-6 was fantastic to watch; when you see guys taking risks, giving their all and moving play quickly - you can't help but want to show your encouragement.
It's tough to get fired up about chipalotto and flooding.

Yeah the port game I was screaming LOUD but not much from anyone else? The loudest all day was when Harves came back on the ground after being KO that was the best bit of the game
Be loud & proud this week we need to be when we are playing the filth barrack hard for the mighty Saints.

The Harvey back on field moment especially stood out because it was such a roar out of nowhere both within the game, and compared to the rest of the day.bethb7 wrote:Yeah the port game I was screaming LOUD but not much from anyone else?

The other point which stood out noisewise was while Harves was on the ground in the trainers hands with the game stopped. The Moorabbin wing was up and chanting, the cheersquad was up and chanting. You could see the level 2 folks clapping and the noise was building... then Harvey got up, the play started, and the noise died out.
