Opinion Question for Victorians - Does it bother you not having a Vic team in the GF?

[Osho]

Not in the least.

 

[Philth]

F**kin’ media.

Yep.
They were even talking about it on ABC news this morning.
Wtf

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

No, if it’s not Carlton then I could ggf who the other sides are

 

[Pistol Night]

I’ve got mates that barrack for Carlton, Hawthorn, Geelong, Essendon etc. Why would I want to listen to their shit for 12 months. Interstate teams all the way if we’re not in it

The only people who care that there are non-Victorian teams in the Grand Final are the non-Victorian fans. They think they're getting one over the AFL and the rest of us, but the reality is none of us care.

I’m going tomorrow. Hope it’s a great game as a neutral. Atmosphere is always fantastic at a gf.

A better question would be does it bother you when in years like this year there is very few finals in Victoria? Or are we all past that now also?

Genuinely do not care. At all

Well the winner will have fun for a week and we'll all pile on them and say how much we hate them...
Before we know it it will be next year and then three years from now...rinse repeat...and watering the garden is easy..

Don’t care.

 

[Leeda]

No, if Collingwood is not in it, I would prefer no other Victorian team is.

You and your leather boots...

Only care that we didn't get one after the 1st week but we needed to finish top 4 for that. Would be happy if they were no finals in Victoria except for Hawthorn ones

 

[Wosh]

No. It only bothers me that my own team isn’t in the GF…other than that I just want an entertaining game as a neutral.
In fact I think Sydney/Brissie will be a fantastic match up!

 

[Billyc]

It would bother me if there was a Victorian side that I hate in it. Instead I get a neutral game where I don’t really care about the result which is fun. Much prefer no Victorian sides other than my own

 

[Ned_Isakoff]

Go Fitzroy

 

[Roobs321]

the other two all-nonVics were decided by less than a kick, will be interesting if that continues today

 

[ibd77]

Good thing it's a sellout then.

...that's before actual footy fans can attend.

90 thousand plus ten...overwhelmingly riding a sharp shooter

It seems to be different in Sydney but, I can't fathom why Swans fans would ever be supportive of the Giants. The AFL wants a rivalry not a love-in, some Swans fans are even members of the Giants to help out. You don't see Giants fans be a member of the Swans. Sydney people are strange as ****!!!

Because some long-term Sydney Swans fans copped all kinds of abuse from rugby league fans for supporting Australian Rules Football, let alone the Swans. Some Sydney Swans fans understand the opposition the Giants face(by the Giants being an Australian Rules team) and want to help them become strong. After all, what value can be placed on a rivalry when one's 'rivals' are still riding with training wheels?
