I think generally speaking that's a fair assessment.Haven't lurked the football part of the board much over the summer, so don't have a heap to base this question on, but...
Considering there appeared to be quite a deal of respect between both teams supporters after the game, has the reputation and way both Eagles and Pies fans view one anothers clubs changed for the positive on a whole? All those close finals leading to an incredible grand final last year must count for something.
I've certainly seen far more Fremantle and Carlton fans posting negative things about the Eagles and Pies than the supporters of the two competing teams did.
