I have family members who would turn in their graves to read something like this. The relationship between Richmond and Collingwood was not neighbourhood rivalry, it was hatred. You make it sound like a couple of mates sharing a friendly rivalry. It was never that .
I understand hating Carlton and Essendon but the real tradional hatred is between Richmond and Collingwood. It is far more historical than Collingwood - Carlton or Collingwood- Essendon as well.
My Grandfather and Dad for instance hated Collingwood so much they could almost taste it . My GF told me that he preferred I didn't play with one boy down the street because the family were Collingwood supporters and Catholics as well :eek:. "Disciples of Wren and Mannix "I still remember him saying. Winning in 1980 was like winning 2 premierships to my Dad .
Don't get me wrong , I hate Carltank with a passion but Collingwood hatred is embedded in my DNA.

I know what you're talking about. Perhaps I worded it wrong. My father told stories of gangs fighting each other in the streets with fence palings embedded with rusty nails. I never meant to imply it was a FRIENDLY rivalry. But a lot of the hatred was caused by being such close neighbours. And in the depression and in times of war, local violence increases. The tigers and pies were enemies born from poverty. Similar socio-economically, similar location.

But Carlton? Superior, sanctimonious but yet, uneducated toffs who looked down on both Richmond and Collingwood because of the suburbs' postcodes. They make me sick.

Just two weeks ago a bloke at the NAB cup took offence at my female mate for dropping the F-bomb. He and his gang of approx 10 kappa slapper trakkie wearing mates started going off at us two females who were at the time standing on our own. (Our male comrades were outside the ground having a ciggie). He went on and on about using inappropriate language (by this time my friend had apologised and was desperately trying to diffuse the situation while I was getting more and more riled up). He then proceeded to call me a "dirty scum.... get back to centrelink where you belong down near punt road you scum".

typical carlton. wouldn't even know the meaning of the word "irony"

Re: Carlton

I have one mate that I occasionally go to the footy with who is a Carlton supporter, but the rarest of that breed, he's quite reasonable and considered in his thinking on the game. He's a very forthright bloke and just a tiny bit nuts.
It's the greatest thing to go to watch Tiges v Blues games with him because he, done up in his Blues regalia, invariably gets sick of the rubbish spewing forth from some fellow Carlton supporter near by and ends up in "heated debate" with them. I've seen him silence so many moronic CFC supporters at the footy, it's fantastic!
Always ends his confrontations by calmly taking his seat and, shaking his head, mutters something along the lines of "*smile* Carlton supporters, they're all morons!"

No-one's got close to be honest, near all navy's best mates are supporters of the smug bastards.

What the hell is your problem? Mates and Carlton supporters do not belong in the same sentence.
 
Re: Carlton

I do have one mate who is a Carlton supporter. His son receives a Birthday card from Richmond every year. My mate truly hates it but his kid always loves it.
 
Re: Carlton

Re: Carlton

Pies........all the way. i hate everything about them. Have for 20 odd years and will always. i would disown my own son if he walked in the house with that black and white filth....

I hate eddie, joffa and every other toothless, mullet, drunk, inbred degenerate from smith st.....

bumbers and blues are up there but pies, hands down - everytime.

i don't really know why but im starting to add Port to the list also.....
 
Re: Carlton

Hate is a very powerful emotion as powerful as love and the only club that deserves my emotional energy is Richmond the other clubs are just there.

Re: Carlton

It's only a game. Having said that if you guys beat us in the first game, I'll be a bit snakey for an hour or so.
But my tiger bred mrs, will be happy. And that has it's own benefits. ;)
