Dufty comments

Did you go to the game, did you see it?
Where's your hard evidence any of this actually happened?
Or is this just your "opinion"?

Ok, let's play a little game...

The statements start with the pronoun "I", referring to me.

Is this:

a) an opinon
b) a fact

Mate you are quite obsessed with me and selectivity quoting my comments, you really are going to need to see someone about that.
I'm not famous, I don't require a stalker.

Not really, I've seen something that's a pretty poor comment and borders on being racist.

But you carry on abusing players from behind a fence.

When the team starts winning, I'll be sure you get the credit for your strong motivational tactics.

Instead of playing a game, how about you occasionally go to a game.
Then maybe you will have some idea what your ever talking about.

Man you simply have no clue do you.
"You can go to Nth Queensland now Nene" and "please go back to Canturbury" to Lafai is somehow racist?
Get to a game, watch with 12000 other Dragons supporters as they get flogged 38-0, and then boo loudly with 12000 other Dragons supporters as they leave the feild.
Then come back and talk to me.......or better yet don't, I don't like to play with people with untreated mental conditions.

This is a tricky area.

Criticism is absolutely deserved, up to a point though. Some of the things I've seen that have been shouted have crossed a big line though

Telling a player to go back where they came from is simply disgusting and we as a fanbase would be above it

I was not at the game yesterday. Thank God for small mercies.

However, I was very vitriolic at to the performance of the team and a couple of players in particular on this and other forums.
Yes, frustration played a major part in that, watching made me wonder what has become of my once proud club. A club my father played for, a club where many heroes had donned the Big Red V, a club where football history was created with 11 straight premierships. It was not anger, just pure hear felt frustration of seeing my team turn up its toes at such a momentous occasion. Some of our past champions would be turning in their graves.

However, in saying that, I do reserve the right to chastise any player who I think isn't doing his job. Be that our highest paid player, or our lowest, our captain or a rookie. We have no problem in waxing lyrical of someone who plays well, but to criticize when they play bad seems taboo. Sports people in the public eye have to accept that fans with love them one day and loathe them the next. It's the nature of the beast.

One thing I will say is that verbal or physical abuse of players directly, be that at the game or on their private social media is akin to gutlessness, particularly with the knowledge they have to "take it on the chin" and not rebuke in any way.

I truly hope, I mean really truly hope, we bounce back next week and run in 50 against the Knights. I hope ALL our team who runs out on Saturday plays at 100% intensity, belying any talk of being a spent force this year.
Unfortunately, under McGregor, that task seems herculean in nature, even if he injects fresh talent into the squad.

Apologies to anyone who took offence at my ranting yesterday, but as I said built out of frustration and the thoughts of times gone by.

Dragon for life!

Personally I don't care where you told them to go back to, as regardless of if it's a location or just a club, as telling someone to go back to where they came from is a pretty poor comment to make given the connotations.

You mentioned you were around kids, sounds like you've set a great example for the next generation.

The only "connotations" are seen by you.
Was Hunt being told to "go back to Brisbane" racist?

Just as an aside idiot, I've mentioned numerous times on this forum, which given your stalker like tendencies I'm sure you've read, where I actually come from, any comment from me in person would be kinda hard to be seen as racist.

Ok mate, you keep up the good work abusing the team. They need your motivation.

Brian Johnston is the new CEO and from memory brought in Brian Smith which got us to 2 grand finals in 92/3 with a team that had hardly any rep players. Hopefully he does the same here and bring us a coach who can get the best out of a team.

Things have changed now with the Illawarra faction now involved. Johnston will do what he’s told to do.

 

[blacksafake]

players have been copping criticism since Jesus played Halfback for Nazareth......

He nailed the cross field kicks

Oh god not this again. Let's give the ink time to dry before we start trying to pull sides.

The "Illawarra faction" will want success just as much as the "St George faction".

We're one club, we're in a strong position for the future....

..once we get a new coach.

I am of the opinion that players deserve criticism but NEVER abuse

There is never a time no matter how bad that a player deserves screaming, shouting and feeling like their own fans hate them.

Our boys deserve a LOT of criticism after yesterday. But a stadium of 12000 booing, hollering and shouting who knows what at them is not on. I have made fun of Panthers fans all year for their fans antics and now I'm embarrassed to see even worse come from our lot.

James Graham had a scarf thrown at him. Sure it's just a scarf but who gives a shit. Hurling anything at any player, let alone the one we should be proudest of, is foul

I wish I could like this twice.

It's really very simple. The core problem of this club is the coach. Anything else is secondary. Everything on the field starts and ends with him

Players are out there in a stadium copping it from all angles for feeling the effects of Mary's lack of game plan and running then ragged earlier in the year.

Criticism needs to go more to the coach than the players. Yes they need some too but far, far more to coach.

And note I said criticism, not abuse. Mary doesn't deserve abuse either.

 

[Brutalitops]

I'm sorry for a third post in quick succession, but I'm really quite pissed at how Tariq entered the tunnel to go to Lance Thompson's kids in a very hard moment for them all and had to deal with the shit they did.

Sure they lost. A lot. But in the end there were families of players there watching all this happen

 

[dannyt]

Well, maybe he deserves just a little.

 

[Pedge1971]

Total BS.

If you went to a concert, paid good money, and the performer put on a pathetic 5th class performance, I am pretty sure you would boo.

Their effort was embarrassing, there was no passion or committment, there was no heart.

Lose but put in is fair enough.

Lose and give what our team gave yesterday, every fan had the right to boo and scream.

Why do you constantly offer up excuses, apologies and blame others instead of Mary and the players.

Love to know your agenda.
