Subi racist status: boos around the ground for goodes

In my last decade and a half of going to the footy in subi i can tell you the Eagles crowd will boo the umps and Sydney off the ground despite a 40 poin win because they are in general a bunch of privileged cunts with a persecution complex and like an easy target

melbourne will win the game by 60 points due to coming home kicking to the scoring end, 12 goals down that end to 3 down the other. jesse hogan will have 13 tackles and 10 goals in the quarter, jack viney will rip jack stevens arms off and beat nick riewoldt to death with them

I can understand booing the umps because more often than not they're utter poo poo, but I would never boo Goodes and don't get why people do in Perth. Then again majority of the Australian population are a general bunch of white, racist, privileged cunts with persecution complexes.

The early stages of the game sounded like it was only the fan club cheering. At the same time, the entire crowd was booing Goodes.
I don't get Australians.

Melbourne defend just fine but they have no idea how to attack with any speed or fluency. If they introduce zones next year I'm betting they will return to Mark Neeld tier.

St.Kilda on the other hand might push for the finals.
They're not introducing zones mate. Not next year, not ever. It's not happening.

Most people don't genuinely get the concept of racism.
Unironically, people think they can be racists at the footy and have it not matter because "it's at the footy".

Mate Aussies don't take poo poo from no one and when the do gooder brigade says that we shouldn't do something well we aussies are just tapping into the Secret Truth of the Universe by doing it.

gently caress off, that's not even funny. I respect good players and left Perth (and Australia) to get away from the fuckwit, bigoted attitudes of that shithole.

Seriously though, I don't recall Eagles fans giving Goodes poo poo until the Australian of the Year spat everyone had for no reason.

I reckon they genuinely believe they're not being racist. It's easy to disconnect from reality to not believe bad poo poo about yourself.

Things that don't go our way mostly. You also hear it more because Subi is usually packed and one sided. (4th highest attendance in the league)
The people who own seats are also rich yuppie cunts, so there's that too.
