I disagree. I've seen many, many couples who are very passionate about a certain club only to have their kids grow up differently. It's not because they didn't raise them right or they're not passionate enough, it's just the way it turns out.Moods wrote:Um yes it is. If the parents are passionate about footy it certainly is. If the parents are indifferent, then you're right. Shane claims to be a mad saints man. Maybe he's not?Raven wrote:Um, plenty of sons/daughters barrack for different clubs than their parent(s). Nothing unusual.
Sometimes the kids do it to spite their parents, other times it can be because they go to more games with friends or other relatives and end up following other clubs. Countless reasons.

Never said he was a bad father. I think someone else intimated that. I wouldn't have a clue - he appears to love his kids like the rest of us. Good dad? Who knows. Good husband? I think that's a bit clearer.Raven wrote:I disagree. I've seen many, many couples who are very passionate about a certain club only to have their kids grow up differently.

The point being is that I've seen very few if any kids support different teams to their parents, especially their dad, if they are genuinely passionate about their club.
The analogy with Harves though is a bit unfair. One played over 350 games and is a club legend at the club. I would be staggered if they supported anything but the saints that being the case. The other is a legend at a different sport altogether.

My dad is a mad passionate Carlton supporter and my 4 brothers also. I chose the saints 'cause I have always been the black sheep. It does happen and now after 34 years they are still doing all they can to convert me....
They are nuts about the Blues going to all GF's etc....God I was jealous as a kid!
My brother played AFL so its not like our family isn't passionate....footy is the One common thread that binds us.
It happens....even in the most footy passionate families. Good on Warnie for giving his son choice...

Young Jackson (?) Warne's affiliation to the Bombers was mentioned earlier this year in one of the sports "gossip"columns in the Sunday papers.
From memory, one of Shane's parents is an Essendon supporter and Matthew Lloyd popped around to the Warne's home for a kick to sure up young Warnie's support.
