Ladies and Gentlemen,
This site has never been the most endearing to the club or even parts of our own fanbase. A common piece of feedback I receive privately is that some find it too negative or drama-filled, which is why many choose to stay away. At times we clash hard and put each other down, the club, the players, and even Super, who pays for this site out of his own pocket. Some of this could understandably offend players’ families. In conversations I’ve had with people within the club’s hierarchy, the club takes a fairly open-minded view and accepts that it can’t control what others say or think. That’s a mature approach.
That said, I believe the majority of us are good eggs, mean well, even if some are rough around the edges and a small minority hold more extreme views. Over the past decade, I’ve met many wonderful people through this site, some of whom I now count as close friends and have learned a great deal from. You’re a big reason I’m still here and why I care about this community.
If you’re willing, I’d appreciate your thoughts on the direction the site should take. Ultimately, Super will decide, but it’s helpful to understand how people feel, here or privately, on:
- Current affairs and political blogs: Even if personally enjoy them, these often become the most feral and attract extremist views, especially in challenging times. They can flood the site and turn off many who simply want to talk footy, the one thing we all share. Life has enough dramas.
- Moving these blogs to The Cave: Making them members-only may be a win-win, it allows discussions without overwhelming those who’d want to avoid it.
- Any other ideas for improving the site.
Please don’t comment on political, religious or current affairs issues in this blog. This is about improving the site, not saving the world from an apocalypse.

Actually didn't dawn on me that it was a direct reference to any individual by inference.
Thinking a step further my interpretation of Red Necks can be left/right or centre.
Good try. But no that won't get you off the hook. May as well claim calling someone a poof can be a gay or straight slur.
I am not on the "Hook" You seem to be asking all the questions of late......Do you mind telling me why I am "on the Hook"
I have read your comments and you keep repeating the same questions, my guess is your posts are contributory to angst and offer no resolution or reasonable discussion that has not already been had.
PS. there is not a person on this site I have not had a blew with, so don't try and put me on your list. Not only am I not on the hook....I have no interest in biting.
