Enough of the charade!

[Mr Ripper]

I can no longer allow myself to be fooled by that Brisbane club masquerading as 'The Lions'. My heart is in Melbourne. The only thing left to decide is: Which Victorian team should I swing my support behind and start barracking for?

If youre looking for a club with alot of heart and alot of passion Hawthorn is the way to go, if not, then i would have no idea! Take your pick i guess!

 

[Mags]

Collingwood Rip!

 

[AlfAndrews]

No, Mr.Ripper

Forget Collingwood. They're just losers.
Forget Hawthorn. They're just pretenders.

Barrack for a REAL club.

I've seen the light. I'm barracking for Essendon from now on.
You should do the same, Mr.Ripper.

Go the Mighty Bombers!!!!

**See the Bombers fly up ... up
To win the preeeeeeeemiership flag**

 

[lioness]

Ripper, you're quite right. I have taken a few minutes to ponder it, and I too wanna follow a Victorian club. And I choose......

THE MIGHTY SAINTERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on Rip, join me.

Welcome aboard Lioness!

I almost lost my voice and had a rather scary looking Bulldogs supporter nearly belt me up over the standard of the umpring but nothing is going to wipe the smile of my face tonight and probably for the next week as well. Now if only the swans, cats and tigers can get over the line, I can see how good this tipstar 8 payout will be and top off a nice weekend.

Seriously, I didn't see the game Mr Ripper but you lost buy a goal against a team in top form. Not sure if its time to abandon them yet. Of course, you are welcome to join the sainters too.

Yes, the best April Fools Day jokes are the most believable ones. I can undertand Mr Ripper's frustration at seeing everyone's top four certainties losing a game in just one quarter - this time in a 'real game'.

Yes, well this one was pretty believable!!!!! Had it been anyone but Ripper I might have fallen for it too.

P.S. In case anyone's in doubt, I was joking too.

Poor sainter, I know you're crushed lol

mr ripper, if it's a victorian side you want to barrack for surely it must the saints. come and join a club that has been to the pits off hell and is gloriously rising to the top.

you better get on the bandwagon soon though, because in the next few weeks the bandwagon will be chockers full of very happy new supporters.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Well picked up, Dutchy.

As if I'd jump ship. I'm not Carey_is_King, y'know!
