I'd say West Coast Eagles but the fact is they just wouldn't care about us. The Bulldogs are over 97/98 as are St Kilda and North.
Are Geelong over the Colbert mark?I've seen a similar thread on the Bulldogs board started by somebody else and they definitely consider Adelaide as a rival, although it's admittedly stretching it a bit as they have GWS, St Kilda, North Melbourne and Essendon all well ahead of Adelaide in the rivalry stakes.

Eagles definitely in the '00s they had our measure and stopped us IMO of winning a flag.Sydney.
Knocked us out of a few finals where arguably we probably would have beaten WCE (there seemed to be a rock paper scissors those years where we could beat west coast, west coast could beat Sydney and Sydney beat us). Plus Tippet.
Now we've finally got our own back on the trade stakes so that probably gives it a bit of extra spice again now.

We really should have won one in the '00s.
lol.Oh have I misremembered the rock paper scissors, was it that we could beat Syney but Sydney could beat West Coast?
Yep, you got it the wrong way around. The West Coke Eagles were the team we struggled with, but we could handle Sydney in that periodOh have I misremembered the rock paper scissors, was it that we could beat Syney but Sydney could beat West Coast?
Sydney.

They both left as the ship was sinking. We won't have a rivalry with them till we have recovered.What about Crows/Demons (Lever) and Crows/Lions (Cameron)?
No current season stats available
Sam Mitchell knee to Tex?I’d personally say Hawthorn.
Round 1 1991 - game 1 against the Hawks
86 point thumping at the hands of the new boys in town.
Dermott Brereton smashing Chris mcderm
Darren Jarman and Mathew Robran defection yo the Hawks and not sign with us
Our first ever final in 1993
2008 semi final with Buddy Franklyn and the refusal to move Kris Massie
2012 preliminary final loss by 5 points
I’m sure I’m missing a few things but IMO, this is our biggest rivalry outside of the swampies.
This...
Bulldogs due to the 3 finals appearances and the Troy Pannell game
...
Maybe Carlton with all the trading stuff? Menzel, Kerridge, Gibbs, McGovern, Betts and the first round pick trade?
Except I don't really see it as a a rivalry because overall we came out ahead.
Same reason I don't really see the Bulldogs as a rival.
What about other clubs that have been mentioned apart from the Bulldogs as a case for a rivalry?
Hawthorn?
Sydney?
Richmond?
Geelong?
I think in a 2 team town, where the rivalry is so great, and the history of people hating Port Adelaide in the SANFL, no other team really stands out enough to class as a rival.
