Someone posted on the Melbourne subreddit recently about their experience travelling to suburban footy grounds every weekend, watching their kids umpire junior games. It was the kind of post that gets shared around because everyone recognises it. The observations were sharp and specific: wealthier suburbs have food trucks and entitled spectators, outer suburbs have dodgy canteens and genuinely good people, the middle-class suburbs produce the loudest coaching from the fence. Good coaches focus their players inward. Bad coaches blame the kid in the hi-vis.
