We're so damaging when guys like Taranto, Hopper, Daniels are on.
So much to be happy about and hopefully the boys can keep it up.

Also, sad that my fairytale GWS vs Lions final is happening a couple weeks too early
Cracking win. Winners all over the ground.
You can see what Aiden Corr brings to the team and why Leon likes him I reckon. Very strong defensively, has good closing speed and clean disposal.
I think he's a nice counterpoint to the taller interceptor types back there.

I was hoping Brisbane would get up. The "redemption road" fairytale run would have been kind of poetic if we could have taken down our last 3 finals conquerers (dogs, tigers, pies) in 3 straight weeks on the way to a first GF.

Would love an all non Vic GF to hear the Vic whingeing.

That would be pretty sweet. Wouldn't mind an Eagles Giants granny.

Last time it happened a few times in a row we got an AFL investigation into the state of Victorian football. If that doesn't say volumes about the priorities of the AFL, nothing will.

Ah yes, three glorious years. Also when interstate clubs won from 2001 and 2006, when many were fearing a Victorian club would never hoist the cup again. Good times.

That's true. I was actually going for Freo in the 2013 GF but Freo fans have made me one of those stereotypical 'anyone but the Dockers/Eagles' WA supporters. They make it hard. I'm sure some of our fans do the same for them. I guess it's not fair to all of them, many are decent, but some are such asses. Anyway I'm waffling lol.

Does North have a real rival nowadays? I get the feeling many don't like the Doggies.

Isn't there still the Essendon thing?
Also I want to make the battle of Tassie with Hawthorn a thing - lock in a game against each other in Launceston and Hobart each year. But that's just me.

Hawks rivalry tapered off slightly.
GWS already Swans and Doggies which is good.
My heart nearly always goes for the non Vic sides ( Swans vs Bulldogs the only exception I recall ) . Love a non Vic side or 2 in the Granny to really feel on board and a part of it .

I felt similarly for Don Pyke and the Crows. North have always been my second team for some reason, maybe cos they're not as big and obnoxious as some other Vic clubs.

Likewise, though North and the Dogs are my 'Melbourne teams.' I live in Footscray, about a km from the Whitten Oval.
