I understand there are people who dont give a rats but I usually like to pick a team for GF day (until my Demons finally get there)

I'll be barracking for Geelong. Deserve another flag I feel. Supporters are flogs but the team itself I like.

Saints I could live with, but Milne - I can just see that tiprat collecting his premiership medallion and some awful fist pump salute that is just nauseating to me. No thanks. I'm quite comfortable with St Kilda keeping us company in the 40 year wilderness.

 

Unless there's a team that I particularly dislike I find questions like this hard to answer until I'm watching the game.

Does anyone else find that once they start watching a game they tend to start 'barracking' for a particular side?

However, for the purposes of this I'll say the Cats.

Reckon I'll go for the Saints.

The Cats have broken their drought and I was glad for them.

Last year their supporters had their hearts broken and would like to see it again this year (where as last year I didn't).

Saints fans are a long suffering breed, 'll be happy for the animals to have their time in the sun

 

One of my mates put $500 bucks on Geelong to win the Flag at the start of the season and is a chance to collect $1600. IMO those odds don't seem that great considering it was at the start of the season. Anyway I hope Geeling win so I can have a free night of drinks.


Have a bit of a soft spot for the Sainters.. plus daughter defected to them :lol:

Am a bayside boy...bit hard to ignore them :rolleyes:

Kinda figure between the Sainters and the Dees I have my post mortality covered ;):unsure:

I hate St. Kilda as much as I hate West Coast and Collingwood.

Their supporters are feral, although surprisingly optimistic (despite countless wooden spoons and only 1 flag in 100+ years), and I hate Milne and that arrogant POS Riewoldt.

I hope Geelong win by 10 goals.

Geelong have had there turn.

Hope it's a close game.....

 

Hate St Kilda with an absolute passion, and am looking forward to seeing Reiwoldt cry after a big thumping by the hands of Geelong.

Having said that, I hate watching Grand Finals when Melbourne are sitting pretty on the bottom of the ladder :(

Could not disagree more ...

Both would be very deserving winners, so it's hard to split them - makes for a very exciting day

Riewoldt is a fantastic player who has been a real difference in both finals and has totally stood up as a great captain should - if Watts turns out even nearly as good as him I will cry with happiness.


Cats.

I've always liked the Geelong Football Club & their supporters.

I don't hate the Saints but I certainly dislike their pretty boy ways & find their supporters are a real fair weather bunch.

I do not think you can call saints supporters "Fair weather" Feral maybe but they have always stuck fat with there team through very barren times .(my Brother) But i think Geelong will win by about 5 goals. they looked so mean on saturday night.

Cats,like to keep Saints in Wilderness n cant stand Milne,but 2 of my mates in the saints (1 playing,1 isnt) so its a hard choice

No doubt Riwdoldt is a brilliant player, so is Judd. But both are knobs and I don't wish either of them success.

Not to mention that Stephen Milne does not deserve to win a flag.

Do you know any of them personally?

You'd be surprised.

(although we're talking about on field football personalities here)

Yeah Milne with a medal is like a ped getting a job in the kindergarten, it's just awful.

I have been to Kadinia prk prob 10+ times watching Melbourne lose them all bar 1 and have always loved the banter down there.

Cats by 1 point after scores being even at full time. Ablett gets a dubious free for being shoved aside by Riewoldt or whatever his name is, then manages to bounce through a point right on 2nd siren. Animal enclosure absolutely riots and 6 busloads of Saints heavies, convoy down to Pussyland to wreak havoc. :lol:

You'd be surprised.

Actually I hear the same thing from friends of mine that do know them personally.

Don't profess to myself, though.

Funnily enough, a few of those anti-social footballers at the team I love to hate... well, they're actually decent blokes.


Saints for me (and also end the long suffering of their supporters), the Cats supporters as the name suggests are ferals. I think they're living proof Tasmanian's can swim!

I second this, with a vengeance.

Sainters!!!

BTW there's no extra time in the GF - just a replay next week if the scores are even at full time (do you seriously think that the AFL would forego such a bonanza?).

Go Saints.

IMO Judd and Riewoldt have great on field personas - both are leadership personified.

How did you feel about Nathan Buckley?

?? 2nd siren??

The grand final is replayed a week later. No overtime in the real thing.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
