Oppo Camp Non Eagles AFL discussion thread (Cont. in Part II)

just saw infinity wars. Can't believe Iron Man died.

Did he manage to pass off the matrix of leadership first?

My Dad said at the time that he was sick of winning and it was too easy. Guess he picked the right side to follow if he didn't like winning lots.

No joke, this is the reason that a few family friends gave to me in the 90s when they jumped ship as well.

Ive always found it weird when people say they "got sick" of their side "winning too much". My mum started barracking for whoever was playing against the Australian cricket team in the late 90s for the same reason.

If West Coast won the next 20 premierships im pretty sure I would enjoy being an inaugural supporter of the most successful AFL team in history, not mope about how my team "wins all the time" so its "boring".

Yeah to Captain Planet.

It's weird isn't it, why not just enjoy it? I wonder if any of them regret their choice, seems like they probably do but realise they can't go back so they have to double down and be even more floggish about supporting their team

Oh Btw Iron Man is Peter Parkers real dad.

I thought it was going to be The Hulk :/

He lets himself get bossed around by 5 obnoxious teenagers - he's too soft to lead, give me Bananaman any day of the week.

Banannaman just picked on a blind mole most of the time though, now Joey from Degrassi High, there was a leader.

In a time of crisis they need an experienced veteran to guide them - they should go for Nell from Round the Twist with Bronson as the designated successor.

Nah Hulk didn't smash Peter's mother.

At this point I feel like there's only one man left to turn to

 

[who gives a]

. If Subiaco had become an AFL side in 95 I woulda left the Eagles . Pretty sure Claremont or any Wafl team fan woulda . WAFL was strong still so its easy to see the Sth and East Freo jumping on board Dockers.
I genuinely embraced a second WA side . I used to support both sides but I never had expectation that Freo would go far . They were a good underdog team to watch play other sides . I think it was a young Ben Cousins getting hurt in a derby that sparked a separation . I was genuinely shocked by animosity and hatred of many Freo supporters .It had worn on me so much I couldnt stand the crappy way they supported . Its like this culture grew amongst themselves that attracted more wierdo like fans . Honestly I would be embarrassed if they were Eagle fans so its kinda good they attract the crap . Now I cant stand them , I didnt want to feel this way but there it is .

Bit like you with Freo did not mind them at first. Then went to a Derby and my opinion changed real quick. Their supporters are as bad as Collingwood and the filth that comes out of their mouths and the women are worse than the men

Smash or smash?

 

[avishka5]

Smash or smash?

i guess bit of both.

Also Scarlett Johansson looks so hot with blonde hair in the Movie.

Pretty shit news for Port with Hamish Hartlett doing ACL at training....

Pretty gutted for him.

On the flip side, its a soldier down for them in our clash in a fortnight.

 

[FKASC]

Bit of a fall from grace for Hame. Had massive wraps when he started out

I hope you campaigners talking about Infinity War are joking.
I'm so paranoid my sarcasm meter is all over the place.

Fair to say if you're paranoid about spoilers then accessing the internet is far from a great idea.

 

[WCErevival]

Booked tickets to see it now I hear Captain Planet joined the team

 

[The Dodger]

. Its like this culture grew amongst themselves that attracted more wierdo like fans .

To me this is the marketing genius of Schwab. He just turned it to us and them. Prior to that Freo were the kind of second team that not many people cared about. A leftovers team with not much going for it and then Schwab came along and said "We have to beat that team and also I heard they all said bad things about your mothers" and it generated this hatred from nowhere that couldn't be explained at the time.

Spiderman dies but I'm not sure the movie is canon so not sure what to think.

Definitely worth a watch.
