Obviously a Port win this week would be disastrous for us, but
as Adelaide supporters, I can only assume that a Port GF win
wouldn't sit well with alot of you either

Are there any crows supporters going for Port this weekend?
 
Why would it be disastrous?

I am tipping Geelong because I think they have been the better side all year. If Port win then good on them I wont lose any sleep or slash wrists . Just make work a bit more unbearable but I can deal with that :o

Yeah I will be, I have a few so called geelong supporters that I work with. I didn't even know they followed the football the last 5 years and this year they have been that arrognant. It hurts to say this but I hope port flog them this week, so in a weeks time on the Tuesday morning I can go to work and rub their noses in it.


Just joking people ;)
 
I would never go for Port, I learnt my lesson in 2004 when i gave them my sympathy support, only to be haunted for the rest of my life about "Premiers '04 woooo"
 
I'm just happy there's one South Australian team playing in the Grand Final that the whole state can get behind. :rolleyes: Any Crows supporter that is going for the ferals this week, isn't a true AFC supporter IMHO.
 
I created a win/win situation out of it. On Friday after work I went down to the TAB and put $100 on Port to win the premiership (got $4.25).

If they win I get $425, if they lose it is $100 very well spent!! :D

Yep cant believe I listened to that crap as well, only then to hear all the bragging from the supporters over the years.

I'm not from Adelaide originally so I don't have that "good to see a South Aussie team in the GF" thing happening. When Adelaide isn't in the GF, I generally go for the under-dog or interstate team. This year, I think Port will probably go in as the under-dog and of course are the only interstate team, although I think it is a fairly evenly matched final, but I just cannot bring myself to barrack for Port.

A logical mind would support good footy at it's best, no matter who the team, but I guess my heart rules my head where footy is concerned! :o I'll be barracking loud and hard for Geelong, but I won't lose any sleep or be suicidal if Port get up.
 
I don't have a massive inferiority complex meaning that my happiness is not irationaly linked with the failure of the Port Adelaide Power Football Club. Good luck to them and I hope it's a cracking game:thumbsu:
 
I hope Port lose and i hope it's with a kick after the siren, something that will gutter them and wipe the Smirk of Chad Cornes's face that he's had on the past couple of weeks! You know the "FIGJAM" Smirk!
 
Am I the only one that still thinks Port aren't that great, that they got 2nd this year because of luck with injuries and luck with playing crappy teams at the right time and playing good opposition teams with injuries.

They're good, but not Geelong good, I mean they just beat a injury ravaged West Coast at AAMI for christ sake.

Honestly based on form, they are going to get their arses handed to them next week.

I thought they've finished off the season strongly. Those wins against Hawthorn and Geelong were bloody handy that is for sure.

Then they came up against WC who didnt have Kerr or Hansen and Judd and Cousins played basically no part in the first final because of injury. Then they played North who were not even in the same class as them. I know you can only play the hand you are dealt, but talk about a dream run in to the GF !

yeah i agree, they've had a arsey run thats for sure. Its just so even this yr a few injuries and you're at a big disadvantage.

Dont know if the cats can do the right thing for us, its a 50/50 match once you get there imo.

Can't help but think if trent hadnt been injured last yr we'd been a real chance this yr btw.

If Trent didn't get injured last year we would have won the Premiership, him and Biglands, if either one didn't get injuried we would have won it.
 
I tend to always support the underdogs which will be Port this year, but I don't want to support them! It's a mental thing I guess...:confused:
