I have been thinking about some scenarios I’d like to see occur at the game when it happens

I’ve decided to separate them into different categories

**Pre-Game**

Tassie play their first game against West Coast

When the team runs through the banner for the first time I hope that there’s a few kids that run with the boys and that the kids run through the banner first and one of them falls flat on their face and the biggest bloke on the team picks up the child and put them on his shoulders

I would love to see a wholesome Welcome to Country done by a Tassie elder and have nobody boo it and everyone celebrate it

When they play the national anthem at the start of the game I’d love to see someone from the Tassie team give a silly smirk to the camera when it pans on them and have the moment go viral

I hope to see Tassie win the coin toss, but for the coin to be double sided and that the team were in on it so they were always gonna win it.

I hope that David Rodan is the goal umpire

**During the game**

Tassie kick the first goal, and have that goal end up being the 2028 goal of the year…Eddie Betts style and in 2030 it becomes the Toyota legendary moments ad

The game is close throughout with no team kicking any goals in a row, it just switches between the two teams throughout

Tassie are in front by a point with 30 seconds to go after an amazing goal, and Harley Reid gets the ball out from the middle and bombs it long and it’s going to be an easy mark by Jake Waterman but then out of nowhere the Tassie centre half back takes a screamer and 2 seconds later the siren goes!

Tassie wins the game 200-199

**The crowd throughout the game**

I’d love to see a fan take 5 mates to the footy with him and he spends the whole game walking to the bar and the toilet carrying beers and having to get footy fans to constantly get out of their seats to make room for him

I’d love for someone from Tassie to kick a goal and the ball hits a random fan in the face and the moment goes viral on social media

I’d love for someone to fall down the stairs while walking to their seat

I’d love to see a young fan to be really excited because he just bought a bottle of Coke from the shop, then when he goes to open it someone has shook the bottle and it sprays all over his face

I want someone to buy a coffee from the shop and they accidentally spill it on someone the row in front of them

I’d love for a racist and homophobic fan to get caught out and ejected from the game and banned for life, and as the security guards take him out the fans around him clap and celebrate his departure and saying the game is better off without him there

I wanna see a fan do a video for their instagram story saying that they bought 3 beers for just shy of $60 and it starts an online campaign for food and drink prices to be reduced moving forward

I’d love to see the looks on the West Coast cheer squads faces as the final siren goes and they lose by a point

**Post-Game**

I wanna see the Tassie fans storm the ground and celebrate the first win with their team and instead of the song being sung in the rooms everyone forms a circle and they sing the Tassie Devils song with the whole team and Ken Hinkley getting a Gatorade shower in the middle

When they eventually do post-game interviews I wanna see Tassie’s number one player drop the f bomb in the interview

I hope that the loss for West Coast sets the tone and they go winless in 2028 and finish on the bottom

I posted this in r/Collingwood however I reckon it belongs here too

I get that we can’t control every single fan in the country and how they think/act

But it’s clear as day that the booing had to do with what happened a year ago…it’s disgusting that it continued on a year later…both men are trying to move on from what happened and Queer organisations along with the Adelaide football club itself made statements pre game urging fans to put it behind them but they didn’t…

I am a Perth based fan and at Optus Stadium they have a number where you can report anti social behaviour and supposedly if you give out the number of the seat security will do something about it…if Adelaide Oval has something like this in place then I hope it was used on these fans. Even if only a few got kicked out, way better than nothing and letting them essentially get away with it

I think that would be the right call
