I reckon it's got a lot to do with peeweak supporter parents of other clubs.

I don't know how many times ive seen young kids barrack for the hawks and the parents support another team.

For me it was ...
.... I'm into the footy and passionate, you want to marry me i have one request....you support the tigers. We have kids & they support the tigers no matter what.
If you don't like it get out of my house!   
....quite simple really.

With the kids they've complained alittle over the years, at times might have been alittle ashamed to be seen in the yellow and black but now they are all very passionate tiger members and very excited about the future.

Ever since '83 the hawks have reaped the fruits of success and benefiting from parents that allowed their children to support them. That's a whole generation of support due to peeweak supporter parents of other teams. That generation are now members of the hawks and so are their kids.
In my opinion, those parents that have allowed this type of nonsense to occur from their children is un-Victorian. And that opinion counts double for Richmond supporters! :gotigers
The club that keeps giving.
