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.

As has been noted its a privately run concern, dont like it? Stop bitching and build your own or go elsewhere. Being negative all the time does not make you a "tough guy". It makes you a miserable prick that gets off on inflicting their misery on others. Its really easy to leave if you dont like the rules.
I know right , imagine having the freedom to he able to not click on a thread with a political or religious title .
There's the soulution, HOE , just come up with a way that these sandy vaginas can not have to enter the chats about politics .
These people are like the sites version of vegans .
I dont exactly know what a "sandy vagina" is but imagine if the butthurt snowflakes had the freedom to STFU and go elsewhere. Oh wait, they do!
Exactly so who are the butthurt snowflakes ? Certainly not the people happy with the site staying the same . Do you put your backwards pants on this morning mr political avatar who doesn't want political topics on the site 😂
Its a proud Australian avatar mate. The butthurt snowflakes are the same ones crying victim all the time. Why come to a footy site to talk politics? Just poisons the well. Countless forums out there if you want share your low knowledge opinions. Im fine with it being in its own section.
Call it whatever makes you feel like you're correct. But it's still a political avatar.
Ok mate, yours is a toothless grinning idiot. Nuff said.
Only I'm not here preaching to end toothless idiots , or I'd be calling for you to join wiz in the sin bin .
Your a special little fella. You do you buddy.
Mark, do you know if Wiz would like to return? Just curious after what EE claims & Frankie said. If true, it would mean he feels angry & "Victimized" & has misconstructed the actual reasons of his suspension. Sad if true...
