I like Collingwood the most how about you guy's?
Collingwood because them with us, are the only side that are defending Victoria in the finals!
None, but I have sympathy for a few.
And they would hate to read who they are.
Hawthorn & Melbourne, cos we always **** all over them
North Melbourne. Not ashamed to say it either. Plenty of spirit in that club. Wish Essendon could have an injection of some!

I have a soft spot for Fitzroy, probably out of sympathy.
None of them.
They can all burn in hell as far as I'm concerned.
Bit like Adge, North Melbourne for me
Couldnt give a flying **** about the other teams...the only other football teams i like are...Bannockburn Tigers, AC Milan and the Dallas Cowboys
hey - lots of you guys have soft spots for the pies I see!
you love us mac...admit it...come over to the dark side....it aint that bad;)
West Coast.
It was early 90s/late 80s when I first started to really follow the footy. I was always a Bombers supporter, but given the Eagles' dominance in the competition at that time I always liked to watch them play. That hasn't really gone away.
Edit: But at the moment I'm very happy with Brisbane.

Pretty much despise all teams in the competition bar EFC and the dockers.. Being from WA i gotta choose one team over here to support, otherwise waiting for the dons to come round 1 maybe 2 times a year is too harsh..

Probably Geelong, becoz my mum barracks for them or maybe saints/bulldogs.

Votes from Collingwood supporters don't count.
Bendigo Bombers for mine.

Definately Saints for me. I guess you could say I was a Saints traitor in a way. :p I first moved to Melb when I was 8 & my first friend followed them so I did too. My mum told me to choose my own team for my own reasons so I promptly followed the team my brother did: Essendon
Thank goodness I have a smart brother!!
Hawthorn for me.
Dont know why.
Fremantle for me. Their supporters are true footy supporters, not like the Weagles.

I don't like any team in particular other than us - i just tend to like some players at other clubs though, and tend to follow the player a bit - like Mcleod, Roo, Nathan Brown, Riccardi and Gary Ablett when he played.

This is my order after Collingwood and Essendon.
Melbourne
Kangaroos
Hawthorn
St. Kilda
Geelong
Richmond
Sydney
Fremantle
Adelaide
Brisbane
West Coast
Western Bulldogs
Port Adelaide
That's all of them. Wait there's some other team- obviously not important. Oh yeah Carlton - OH WELL!

I am happy for any team to win the flag, except the usual suspects, carl/coll, other than those two filth filled conveyances I am more than happy for any other team to win the cup.
North Melbourne - I live in Canberra so it's the only team I see regularly. In fact I bought a Canberra Kangaroos membership to support them (dont worry, I am an interstate Essendon member too!)

I have a soft spot for Geelong, since just about everyone here goes for them.

that is so true but i only stick up for the dockers if they are being given a hard time! and our finals win over them makes me like them even more!
as a sydney girl by birth i have to say the swans. they got at least one colour right
There is something I dislike about all the other teams. Some more than others of course, but there is a little something that annoys me about all of them.
Rather than saying who I like it is easier to say who I dislike.
Collingwood and Carlton are the two most hated of course. And I've never had any love for the Kangaroos. I'm sick of this "Shinboner spirit" crap that gets pouted whenever they win. It's all bullsh*t. Who cares if they play with spirit anyway - that's no reason to like them. And it's debatable whether they play with more spirit than a dozen other teams. All teams show spirit from time to time.
Also, don't have any love for either of the two Adelaide teams - particularly Port.

I think if the Saints or Dogs won a flag I'd be almost as happy as with a Dons flag, providing it didn't come at our expense.
1997 really turned out horribly. I think just about everyone wanted to see a Footscray-St. Kilda Grand Final.
I wouldn't mind seeing a Cats flag either.
But nobody else.

I grew up in Sydney(Blue Mountains actually) so have always had a soft spot for the Swannies. I used to go to the Swans games but followed Essendon because they were red and black like my rugby league team, the mighty North Sydney Bears.

About bloddy time someone "KEPT IT REAL!". Would not lose a single second in sleep knowing this club would fold, merge or whatever! The most annoying supporters, even up there with the blues supporters. They are like street bums, always playing the sympathy card.
And the only team I had a soft spot for was for the club formely known as the Fitzroy Football Club.
Im a Western suburbs boy through and through, so ive got a big softy for the mighty doggies. :)
