A Disgraceful Club

I don't think you'd say that if you saw it.
It was a completely unprovoked attack that was inexcusable.
I know you're taking the piss, but it was not an incident that any Eels fan would be proud of.

Suity

I wouldn't say completely unprovoked.


Part of the reason I saw it was because I was waiting for the crowd to thin out and was looking for a way to not go past MattO on my way out because of the jeering he was giving to other fans. I wasn't in a space where I would tolerate that well. Obviously Bevo wasn't either.


Still inexcusable and something I am not proud happened, but in a way I hoped Matto would learn from it to be more mindful of opposition supporters, especially after a loss like the one we witnessed.

Would someone expect to get out of a bulldogs home game without injury / next to the kennel taunting them after a big loss?

I'd expect you would be carried out.

Eels fans are VERY kind to opposition supporters who taunt us at our own home games in my opinion.

I sat behind a manly supporter at 2001 GF. He was only there to death ride parra and hurl abuse.

Biggest test of self control of all time.

I sat next to a Manly fan (my brother) at their first GF againt Melb and death rode Manly all day. One of the better nights of my life. The payback the following year (40-0) and then worst of all in sitting next to him in 2009 wasn't so good.

Was Matt O one of those idiot Bulldogs fans wandering up and down Church Street playing bongos and doing Bulldogs chants the night we lost the 2009 GF. From reports in here I'd say he'd have been associated with them at least.

Timmah can be a huge dick...but comparing him to MattO is harsh. The dude is about 124 times the wanker Timmah is. I remember posting there back in the day...such a c**k

agree, but I'd be i'd say he's 127 times more a dick...

Gronk, you are an a grade f*ckwit for posting anything by that brainless piece of sh*t O'Neill. The bloke has been palming himself off for years as some sort of League guru as though he sits atop a mountain somewhere in a cloud spouting out the official RL opinion of God. In fact he is a Bulldog worshipping twat who would burn his grandmother at the stake for listening to her old Ella Fitzgerald records.

Timmah's ok. He's just a Dogs supporter that doesnt cop with multiculturalism.

And Gronk, you should be employed as a f*cking dartboard. How about you scan the internet for another pissant website and see if you can cut and past some more Parra hating thoughts of insignificant nutters in a vain attempt to make yourself look somehow useful to society.

LOL you'd think that I drown kittens for a hobby.

I post what is out there. I don't write it and don't always agree with it.

Love your passion, but little point spraying me.

My poor attempt at humour.
Suppose its not as funny when Timmah doesn't read it.

For the record, I post on Rleague all the time and rarely come across MattO. I don't frequent the Canterbury forum and he rarely posts anywhere else.
But when he does you can tell he's a wanker.

I don't know what you guys expected, but this year was always going to be a rebuilding year.

rebuilding is where you knock something down and build something new in its place from what i've seen this is a destruction year knock it down and leave a smoking hole in the ground
