Piss weak Saints fans......
..... Try turning up now & then. Too cold? Getting ready for Masterchef? Only like stadia with a roof? Wtf! Outnumbered embarrassingly by Dawks at our own home game. Weak as piss.

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
I didn't go tonight because simply: I hate going to the MCG during night games, footy is too expensive, I had a 7am start today (and again tomorrow). Plus it was live on Fox.
Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
Saints fans dont go to the mcg it's not our home ground. Harsh reality but people are creatures of habit. Just play it at the dome.

Depends, usually no. We nearly lost our car one night in 2008 against Carlton and it was pretty scary. That's why I don't like going there.lendog heaven wrote:Oh I forgot ' MCG is scary at night' .

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
Agree
said on the "guess the crowd forum" that 45k would show and 30K of that would be hawks supporters.
I didn't see what the crowd figure was but we were easily outnumbered , but thanks to hawks fans , we may have made some money this week !
But a BIG F@#$ YOU to the hawks fans who boo-ed milney when he first got hands on the ball tonight !

You're taking the piss surely? That's why you don't go to the G? I agree with the OP. Tonight was embarrassing.

The footy is not expensive what the... and the MCG is one of the world's best stadiums. You lazy people in Melbourne who don't even go disgust me

Nothing wrong with the G. I think some fans have got the sooks.

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
I typed up a long message shortly after i got home.... but stuffed up posting it somehow... so here's an abbreviated version...
CRAP EFFORT FROM THE FOLLOWING:
- All regular "Ethiad Saints Supporters" who didn't turn up (I get many folk can't becuase of small kids, money, geography etc etc, but those of you who don't turn up because it's at the MCG, SHAME SHAME SHAME)
- 90% of those who DID TURN UP!!!... Piss weak effort in the crowd - especially down the Punt Road End.... our (No) Cheer Squad is just so pathetic
I felt like an interstate supporter tonight...... a sea of "Wees and Poos" in the crowd.... and bugger all noise from the Red White & Black

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
Not surprised at the lack of numbers supporting us there tonight. Was exactly the same for almost all of last season (at all venues) as well. Tonight was no different.
I've been to probably 90% of our games in Melbourne since I was 11 and only miss games under exceptional circumstances, but I have to say I definitely prefer to watch us at Etihad. Hard to beat a comfortable indoor stadium where you have a great view of the game.Scottish Saint wrote:I just don't get it. The MCG is a vastly superior ground to Etihad.

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
Yep, I agree. No excuse not to go if you are a paid member. Entry was free. I think on level 2 in the section I was sitting in, I was the only one in our area making any noise.
To those who have reserved seats, the seating at the G was fantastic. Even had a social club room set up.
Seriously, a weak effort. Good on those who made the effort. Met some regulars there tonight who always make the games regardless of where the venue is.

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
My favourite ground is Etihad, but ---
*The MCG is a world class venue
*Finals are played there
*Our players need to experience outdoor games in rain, wind & heat.
Anyway, tonight was our Home Game. We (members) had already paid for it.
For casual supporters $23 is not expensive for a nights' entertainment. If necessary, bring your own food - I do!

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
I too don't like the G at night, still I caught the train from Lara and then another one from southern cross, all together 80 minutes including connections "one way" ,arrived back home past midnight, so guys toughen up the saints need our support, and the only way as to give it for us is attending the games and let them know we are there behind them.
When the going gets tough,the tough gets going.

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
Maybe a bigger problem is all these friggin night games we've had since the start of 2010.
NO other Melbourne based club has as many night games as us.
This season, in our first 8 games, we are fixtured 5 night, 3 twlight and ZERO day games!

Re: Piss weak Saints fans......
We are always there rain, hail or shine. Even at the G, which is, by the way a crap venue.
Only highlight of the night was getting a photo of the boy with Terry Milera in the Medalist Bar after the game.
