I know some will object to the thoughts in this thread but it's the way I feel. I am going to run a public poll on who is attending this Saturday's game at WIN.I feel that unless you have got a dam good excuse (e.g. a mate of mine has to attend his sisters wedding) you should be at the game, if you live within 2-3hrs drive of Wollongong.

There has been a few negative thoughts about Saturday in here which is understandable considering our current form, I believe myself it will be a big ask to win, but it is a semi-final against the arch enemy and we have not been in a semi for 36mnths.

So in my opinion any true supporter would be their to cheer on the mighty blue black and white and if you are not going feel free to explain why you are brushing the Sharks when they need you the most!

No, I am not. There are those of us who are the "truest supporters" a level above the "true supporters". I am disappointed MS.

I have been to every game Mighty Sharks. EVERY game. Perth, Townsville, Melbourne, Brisbane etc.

No just richer! I think when it comes to semis if you can be there you should be, unless you have a more important function such as a family one.
 

Frenzy.

Too bad, I feel strongly on this subject!

Good on you.

Doesn't make you judge and jury on who is or isn't a supporter. Doesn't give you the right to brand people as "true" or not either.

I won't even vote in your poll. Neither will I answer you.

It's offensive.

Its not a personal attack, just an opinion I have.

Mate, we all support in different ways, the is no such thing as a true supporter.

Just supporters.

No - why? Because it's one of my best mates' 21st and I've been long scheduled to be there. I'll be glued to the tv from 8.30 onwards though.

If that makes me less of a supporter in your opinion, then I don't give a f**k. I don't value your opinion.

True supporter ??? that's like the definition of NORMAL - It's just a cycle on the washing machine isn't it ?

Maybe if i didn't live in blue white and black people would think i'm strange...

Maybe the "true" is the wrong word to use, I agree I am not judge or jury but that's the way I feel. If you don't fair enough, I wont be arguing the point, just expressing an opinion

I already said if you have a family or friends party or event that is fair enough, my point is if you can afford to go have the means to go, you should rather than watching on TV.

You have missed my point Mako, if you have a important function or even more important work, then of course you can't attend, there are more important things than footy.
I am saying that if you have no prior engagments it is a bit slack not to go to the game.
