The Swarm

Hi Guys

I've joined the Swarm this year and was expecting a large loud turnout but it was in fact the opposite, it was the most empty part of the stadium and pretty damn quiet, the guys up the back did the best they could with getting the crowd going but there's just not enough numbers in that section to make any kind of impact.

How do we get more people involved with the Swarm, do we walk around the grounds during the game and recruit the really loud people? I thought membership were going to make the Swarm great this year but it looks and feels as though its in it worst shape yet.

Does anyone care? Or am I living a fantasy thinking we can be only half as good as some of the other active supporter groups. 

Cheers

D8

  • D8, You should help snake with driving up the swarm numbers, he can't do it alone, maybe with your passion you maybe able to drive up the swarm numbers at the next home game. Snake was trying to drive up the numbers throughout the game on Thursday night, he even wore a outfit to gain attention from other members, Did you see him? he is the one that wears the blue and gold jester hat. i would really like to know how he went too. Just msg him, he will be honored for you to be by his side driving up the numbers this home game. 

    • Mule old mate - Snake has been "driving up the member" for years.

      Don't think he needs any help.

  • To answer your last sentence.

    No, and yes.

    This is snake so you know for the next home game. he is a friendly character, he has a slight lisp and at times has  strong body odor from not washing his jersey ever, he seems to think it brings good luck.

  • Haha, D8, Wiz is being a scallywag, the swarm have been trying to poach me for years mate for my organisational skills but unfortunately for them im a one man show.

    In all seriousness im sure its not an easy thing to do organising a supporters group and making it work, especially with Aussie RL fans whom traditionally are pretty quiet, we've been pretty quiet over the years Eels fans, its not an easy trend to buck, DB maybe you could contact Phil aka one eyes eel, the owner of this site, he is in the swarm, im sure he will value your thoughts and maybe you might be able to help out in some way, they are always looking for fellow supporters to help out and make the swarm better, and you could be just what their looking for DB, get on board mate.

    cheers

  • Lol
  • Pick the right team players & start winning.

    I would suggest Kelly to never put on an Eels jersey ever again as well.
  • Don't go there D8.

    Effectively the Swarm was squashed by vindictive people on here who didn't like the guy who started it.

  • Dear oh farking dear Mule...

    Take a good hard look at yourself.
