    Re: Choose your poison

    I'm on the Collingood ticket for the GF, my boss couldn't contain his excitement and rang me from the game - and I could hear that Collingwood chant in the background whilst he was talking, must say, I thought to myself imagine us hearing that haunting chant for our team...I can live in hope.

      Just point and laugh when St Kilda lose - that's not supporting anyone
      If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

        Yeah that is a good point, watching the Roo cry does make good TV.

            However, with the knowledge that St.Kilda is the opposition, well, I don't want to see Milne or Riewoldt ever win a Premiership either, and I generally dislike their supporters and the last two preliminary finals haven't exactly made me like them.

            So based on that I don't know which team I want to support, and it may come down to whichever team I dislike the least on the day.
            Exactly!! I can't barrack for either team. During the 2nd half of Saturdays game I thought I'd be less upset if Collingwood win the GF, but now I just don't know. Will have to see where the mood (and champagne) takes me at the time.

              As a passionate hater of all things filth, it would take an awful lot to make me want to support them in any way, shape or form in any match. That St Kilda manages to achieve this feat is a feather in their cap.

              Whatever happens, I'm on a plane at 11.00pm GF night and will miss the next 7 days of debauchery that poor old Melbourne town will encounter when the filth salute the judges on Saturday - some semblence of sanity will have started to prevail by then with any luck (at least trade week will be around the corner).

              The thought of seeing Milne belting out "oh when the saints" after a GF triumph is too much for my mind to comprehend. Joffa, Eddie, Didak, Harry O, Maxwell - all of them give me the shits big time but they can have the glory if it means the tears flow long and hard down at Moorabbin. And after seeing them completely destroy Geelong on Friday night with a brand of football that is simply awesome, frankly they deserve the cup. St Kilda's god-awful game plan will kill AFL for the next couple of years if they somehow manage to win the flag next week.

                  Re: Choose your poison

                  For weeks I've been dreading the possibility of a Pies v Saints GF, it's just my worst nightmare.

                  I hate Riewoldt, Milne, Schneider and Lyon more than I hate Maxwell and Didak. I also know quite a few nice Pies fans, can't say the same about the Saints.

                  It hurts, but I'm going for Collingwood.

                    Re: Choose your poison

                    I was certain we would win on sat seeing as this is the first finals series(that we have been in) i haven't been at since '85 and wasn't all that happy as there would have been no way to get home if we did win.
                    I couldn't be happier to be overseas now though and have no interest whatsoever in the result. Ghost dog summed it up for me

                        That's the beauty of it! Pies can't whinge cause they'll have blown a 38pt lead and StKilda can't gloat cause it was a charity which exposes Nick the dick as a diver!

                        That's how it's playing out in my head anyhow.

                          I suggested going to the Royal Melbourne Show for the whole day/night to my partner, I got laughed off. So I'm going to get blotto instead at a mate's barbie.

                          As much as I hate the filth and all their feral supporters, I hate the St Kilda players more.

                          And seeing that would make my day (whilst ignoring all the shots of jubilant Collingwood supporters in between, yuck! ).
                          Wake me up when we get to heaven, let me sleep if we're going to hell

                          Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath

                          And we all found heaven - 2016 Premiers!

                            Would be interested to see a poll on who WOOFers are barracking for....to be honest - I haven't decided yet...I may even wait until the ball is thrown up to see who I find myself barracking for.

                              Good work Ozza. I agree with many of the posts.

                              -I'd like to see Saints fans celebrate a premiership, however I can't stand Ross Lyons' game plan. "Saints footy!"

                              -I have nothing against most of the Collingwood players, and actually enjoy watching the way their young kids take the game on. However if the pies win, I may have take a sabbatical year to South America to avoid the lack of grace held by many pies supporters.

                              If you needed any clarity over why you shouldn't be friends with pies supporters, you only need to scroll down your facebook page after 10pm monday night.
