Havent been to as many games as previous years for a number of reasons but im done for the year. Anyone the same?

Gold memberships built up over years and years can lapse for all i care right now it just shows how much of a sucker i was for renewing

why should i make the effort.

this current group of players, football dept and co have lost me. to the point that i dont associate them with the club i love and ive began barracking for us to lose so we are properly exposed.

Yes
I will go to every game
Why ?
I bleed yellow and black
Not like some here
Biggest issue is you cannot play like superstars in one half and be so poor the next
Club needs to sack Hardwick and let Choco coach the rest of the year

Whilst I will keep going to the games, I'll do so a little disconnected, looking at it with open eyes as opposed to passionate blinkered ones.
At this point of the season I'm looking for little positives rather than wins.
Yesterday I was pretty happy with what I saw from Miles & Dea. That's at least a couple of new names to persevere with.

Yep
Though for me the disconnect happened weeks ago, after the Hawks game

Just don't care anymore

I will go to every remaining game except round 23 in Sydney

But will I fork out another $6k for memberships/coterie packages in 2015 - right now the answer is NO. Base membership for me

Base membership is all they deserve right now.............money is hard earned by us,but not by the RFC it seems.

Oi Benny hows that Fighting Tiger fund looking now

Why would you go to games if you're disconnected? Not a true supporter if you do that

Not going to anymore this year. It takes me three hours to get there, I spend poo loads on tolls, food, parking and fuel. I don't get home until very late. I am prepared to do that to watch a good product, win or lose, but right now it is just not worth the hassle just to go through torment.

I understand why you would do that but I don't think that it helps when supporters pull their coin out of the club.
We still need the cash to get better. Unfortunately AFL's a money game these days.

Hmmm

I won't go until Hardwick is gone. Doesn't know how to coach.

Disconnected with the coach or the club Phil? You aint a true supporter either. Troll.


FWIW good nights sleep still empty but will go to the games. My 3 year old drew me a picture of me with a smiley face wearing an RFC scarf. I wish I had her perspective on life.

As I said I'll be going to games but I'll be wearing generic clothes and not any RFC merchandise as a form of protest as I did last night. Only my old Tigers VFL scarf for me. She's seen as many hard times as I have over the years and she still deserves to come.

As opposed to not going until they sack the coach  ::)

I also go to catch up with mates, will continue to do that

But will I fork out another $6k for memberships/coterie packages in 2015 - right now the answer is NO. Base membership for me

Buts that part of the problem Mr Magic, the club has been able to rely on people like me to (for want of a better term) prop them up.

They haven't had to work hard to get my coin.

I've just done it, no questions ask like so many other people.

Well sorry at some point something has to give and right now the only thing that seems to register with them is $$$. So maybe it's time to hit them where it hurts

Maybe it is time for this club to actually have to work to get my loyalty and respect back and I'm not just talking about the on field debacle we have either.

This club is facing a crisis. ANd truth be known I doubt if they even have a clue about it and if they do would even bother acknowledging it.

WP
On and Off the ground they have little idea
From leadership on and off the ground they struggle
On field last night they layed over and died
I am extremely disappointed with the so called on field leaders and coaches
They could of put everyone behind the bāll after North kicked the first 2 goals after hālf time but no
Remember back 10 years ago when James Hird used to play behind the ball against Sheeds wishes as he was a leader as a player
We have nobody
Cotchin ain't a captain
We all dislike Maxwell from Collingwood .he ain't a captain anymore but still acts like one
We have no body

We should demand more. Don't go to games until we have a proper coach at the helm
