Game #911, Round 19, 7/8/2005
Bulldogs 24.14(158) defeated defiled Sturt 5.9(39)

Yes, the mighty Doggies dealt a serious blow to an overrated Sturt (overrated by their coach, that is). This effort is Central's highest ever score at Unley, Central's highest ever winning margin at Unley, we remain unbeaten at Unley since 1985, and can I just say: "I love Unley!"

To top things off, the team looks to be in fine form, and we even had the luxury of debuting youngster Leigh Westhoff, who played well. Schell booted 5 to help him on his way towards back-to-back Ken Farmer medals.

And now, a few words on crowd behaviour:

The Sturt cheersquad were doing themselves proud, with two of the more unstable members being dealt with by Police after a poor fellow with disabilities was set upon. They are in dire need of anger-management counselling. But you could see it in their faces at the start of the game - they had "hate in their eyes", as opposed to the more relaxed and jovial behaviour of the Centrals cheersquad camped next to them.

The Sturt cheersquad also needs some tips on how to chant at the footy. Here's some examples of the stupid and wierd babble that was coming from them:

"You are blue, red and white,
And your suburb sucks like shite."

"We think we're Port (clap clap clap clap),
We think we're Port (clap clap clap clap)."

The first one would have to be the dumbest chant ever heard at the footy. It's as if a 10-tear-old was told to come up with a chant on the spot and that was the best he could do. The second one, well, I don't even know what it means. These guys have simply lost the plot.

There were occasions when the Sturt cheersquad sounded like they were talking in tongues, they were that incoherent. At one stage, the Centrals cheersquad responded with: "We don't know what you're talking about!", followed by a round of laughs.

But to be fair, not all Sturt supporters are feral, babbling wierdos with anger-management issues - it's 99% of Sturt supporters that give the rest a bad name.
