Dennis Cometti questioned "why it is that the majority of WA football supporters have a soft spot for AFL powerhouses like Adelaide,Brisbane,Essendon etc and not for the struggling Vic teams like the Bulldogs and Saints"??
Personally, I have a problem with the Dogs over quite a few incidents over the years:
1. The brawl at Subi when I saw Suma choked
2. The pack attack on a young Gardiner( Chris Grant lost all credibility when he said on TV that is was not a premediated move-yeah right!)
3. Liberatore's tactics on numerous occasions
4. Nathan( The Spitter) Brown
5. Brown again, amongst others,calling Fraser a rapist
St Kilda - don't really care one way or another. I supported them in the GF against Adelaide mainly due to the Winmar factor. However I am sick of underachieving bottomfeeders like them being rewarded with so many early draft picks!
Of all the other teams, I suppose I would prefer Adelaide. They remind me of the 90's Eagles teams - a strong, classy team who rely on their ability to achieve success - not thuggery like their neighbours. A powerful team both on and off the field who (like the Eagles) also have to put up with another inferior team in their hometown! Brisbane also are a class act.
