I'm not really an AFL follower anymore. Was born and grew up in WA and so followed West Coast, but when I moved over east I started following NRL and the Sydney Roosters. If WCE are playing though I will watch.

Been a West Coast supporter for a long time even though I live in Adelaide. Mainly because my Uncle was a mad weagles supporter and drummed it into me for years.

WCE then Crows then Brisbane as favourites.

I can get cheap tickets every now and then from a mate who works at BSTG in Edwardstown. If I have one spare, we could go to a WCE vs crows/port game sometime? _2:

umm remember sunday the 17th of april, at the SCG. The result looked somethin like this... Adelaide 18.12 120 def Sydney 11.13 79!
Thats a 7 goal thrashin mate!
Playin the swans don't hold no fears for us, neither does travellin to sydney!
So even if sydney did knock us outa 2nd an we finished third, travellin to the SCG for the first final won't bother us much!

Supporting the eagles, although I (unlike most other eagles fans) dont mind seeing freo win either. Basically I support both WA teams untill they play against each other.

If I happen to catch it on tv, I will watch it for a while cos it's not a bad game... but there's something about the teams.

I will only go for the team with the cutest players.

Sheesh, I'm such a chick.

AFL??

Which race team is that?? Which category?? V8, GT, one of the Formulas??
Must be a newie.

After all, the only way an 'activity' should be called a sport is by having the word 'SPORT' in it's name.
Hence, the only REAL sport is...
MOTORSPORT!!!

Everything else is second rate...
