It wouldn’t be too hard for someone outside the active support to bring them in though and pass them on in the toilets

Mate, my son and I don't sit in active support and we also get scanned and patted down. Not every game mind you, but probably half the games this season we have been checked.

I have found the people will generally try and stop you going into a bay at parra games if you dont have a ticket for that bay too ... tho you can possibly slip past
Do you mean tapping the security guard on one shoulder and then sneaking past on the other side?

Merkins and their flares FFS. Arrest the lot of them.

But thats just cos you have an enormous bulging penis that they suspect to be a flare :wink:

But lets be fair dinkum ... while i am sure there is only a handful of merkins who do the flare lighting - there are probably 50 merkins around them who think its cool and are happy they do it and wouldnt want to dob em in

As ive said before, i don't have a big problem with em, it looks kinda cool ... but i also understand there is a safety issue

Would the fans be happy if there was a controlled flare let off in a safe place pre-game or something? .... i am guessing not ... the thrill of it is partly that it is not allowed

Ok I can't see that too well on my phone. Is that a bunch of little kids wearing t shirts meant to be saying f**k FFA?

So serious question .... what is the solution?

the governing body are obviously against the flares and that aint gonna change. Do they turn a blind eye and then have merkins just do it anyway cos they can see they are gonna get away with it

Its pretty obvious nothing will stop it from within

So, what else?
