I had a chuckle at Jim's description of various Carlton supporters in his thread about Carlton Social website here http://www.talkingcarlton.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=19962.

So which one are you? If 'none of the above' how would you describe your *supporter demographic*?

I'm the housewife Image

I'm the "likes to go to matches with radio and jacket, sit on my own away from people, fill out the footy record, laugh at opposition supporters stating the obvious, quietly walk back to car listening to post match talkback, arrive home, watch replay, watch other game(s), tell wife at least twice I'm watching the football can;t do that, check the stats on the internet, post on TC my thoughts, wake up get the paper, check the dream team stats, check other papers online, watch more games, move onto next game, watch all weekly footy shows, analyse matchups, attend next weeks game.".

I do all of that except go to the matches due to living in flowering Darwin. My wife thinks that I would eat a football if she served it up for dinner - she is probably right. :roll:

I get to probably 3 games a year...it's a fair trip from Albury and I work most weekends.

TC is great though....helps you feel like you are one of the mob. :-D

My other half is doing honours in Psych next year so we are off to melbourne and I'll certainly get to more games then :)

Interstater, who has 4 or 5 footy trips a year.

attend training once or twice a year and raid the calton shop.

I've never seen a final live at the game however. how sad is that!
