Just wondering how the rest of your stir up the carlton supporters at work or home.....they are on a bit of a high,so I just love bringing them down a few pegs...
The Manager at my workplace loves em...his number plate is cfcfan for christs sake.....geeeeez

Whenever he starts talking carlton up, I generally say, "Yep, ya certainly got the form on the board, ya got Juddy,and Uncle Dickie with all the cash, you guys are certainties for the 8, in fact I reckon top 4", yep, you guys are ready....." hehehhehehe, he hates it......"Now, we are good,but just dont get too far ahead of things, there are lots of good sides out there"he says....

Love setting them up for a big fall.....

hehehehehhehe, geez Im a prick.... ;)
 
Probably don't say too much before the game, Fabulous Phil Egan.

They've got us covered on most fronts.

More Premierships
More Money
More Success
More Arrogant Supporters

More Cheating Presidents :hihi

Just hope we win and then you can let fly.
 
When the cheating Blues secure bottom spot, you buy the biggest wooden spoon you can find and hand deliver it to your mate's place

Then the Tiges win the wooden spoon the following year and it backfires in a big way and you end up begrudgingly regaining posession of the dreaded piece of woodware

Think thats Karma Bruce Montooth. ;)
 
You ban them watching their silly team on YOUR tv! Worse, I refuse to attend any Cartoon live matches even if he attends ours! When they are out and about you decorate their bedrooms in Tiger colours/memorabilia. I also bring out the game where they got the first 4 goals and we ended up winning by 60 points and invite my flatmate to come watch the game. I constantly remind my flatmate that the Blues have so many players that wouldnt get a game anywhere else.

Best trick - buy them a Tiger membership for Christmas as I did to my scum flatmate. Nothing better than giving it to those mongrels.

For work colleagues, best thing is to remind them of their history THIS DECADE and how they are the worst performed and no one can take that from them. When they fling up about their history I remind them they have been in the league for longer than us and also if you take away their cheating premierships then it doesnt look as good. I remind them that living in the past is so not cool and they are again reminded of their performances this century.

I also like to apologise to them when they say they are Cartoon supporters - works a treat ;D

did I remember to say that I hate that team - well I do >:D

Skipped your mind, but we got da picture. ;)

I find two words followed by raptuous laughter always gets them riled up.

Just say.."John Elliot" then roll around on the floor in fits of laughter and you'll have them sharpening their pencils with wicked glares in no time.
 
I believe in laying it on the line in the build up to any game. Tell your boss Carlton are s...t and that they have gotten far too ahead of themselves and that the Tigers are gonna smash them. Tell him Richo is going to kick 6 from the wing because they have no match up, Cuz is going to embarrass Judd who won't be able to get loose from the Jackson tag. Always throw in the old "I heard a rumour that ........... (pick his favourite player) is on his third strike" or "did you know ............. is under investigation for ............" Just use your imagination. Keep him angry, nervous and unsure.

Then if we win just smile and shake your head and tell him he really has no idea about football and should follow soccer instead or a real football team like the Tigers.

If we lose, blame the umpires, Carlton for tanking, the draft and the AFL. Don't blame the club or anyone in it publicly. Cop it on the chin.

Win or lose, give it a week or so, then start the banter for the next time we play the scum.

Your boss will love it.
 
Where's Ray Hall when you need him. ;D He was a versus Blues specialist. :hihi

Seriously, I will be saying nothing to any carlscum supporter until AFTER we've given them a good old shellacking in Round 1 and Richo has another 3 brownlow votes.
 
Soft.......go hard or go home. Serve it up front and take your medicine when you have to. God knows I have had my fair share of medicine over the last 29 years but it is what being a diehard supporter is all about. If you can't laugh about the opposition and yourself you might as well give it all away.
