Which AFL team is the most hated by us the fans??

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Hawks, Richmond and Carlton.

 

[werdna78]

The Suns.
There is no redeeming feature in their game. Horrendous. Hate watching them. Hate reading about them.

Hating the suns, is like hating a disabled kid.

 

[Rubber Snake]

Because I follow such a miserable under performing club, a good weekend for me is when either Hawthorn, Sydney and Adelaide Crows lose. If they all lose on in the same round it's the closest thing to a flag I'm likely to see....

Being hated while sucking is a major achievement

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Essendon for sure

 

[LB#16]

Not sure why anyone needs to hate Essendon. Why hate something so irrelevant?

 

[Carringbush2010]

Actually nah, still the Pies. Fk them lol

 

[Black Child]

Not sure about ‘hated’, but we are unquestionably the tallest poppy, and the cause of the greatest ‘derangement syndrome’ amongst jealous opposition supporters. Just look back at this thread alone for evidence.

Nah the tallest poppy would be us being the biggest club.
Stems back decades to when we were first to get a million through the gates in 1973.
First club to pass 100k members too.
Media and oppos hate us, it's human nature to hate the biggest.

I voted for Melbourne.

Honest question, as I was too young to know the ins and outs... But if Richmond were and are such a big club, with such a large number of passionate supporters, how did it get to the state of the early 90s and the Save our Skins tin rattle?

 

[westie]

I hate 'em all on game day!

Im guessing you use too much teeth.

The whole league was broke at the time.
Our club didn't help ourselves engaging in the trade war either.
Look at the history of the league and every club has been in financial strife at some point in time.
Even Collingwood who claim to be the biggest club were broke 20 years ago.

There is broke and there is broke to the point of almost having no club. Seems weird to me that through that period the clubs who were in serious dire straits were, Footscray, Fitzroy, St. Kilda and Richmond.

 

[Tandy]

The old school rivalries are well and truly alive if Essendon is the most hated. I voted Hawks, not for 08 but for the threepeat. If it had of been any other team is dislike them just as much.

Essendon......Carlton=Hawthorn
Fremantle.....West Coast
Geelong........Hawthorn
Gold Coast....???
GWS.............???
Hawthorn......Essendon
Melbourne.....Collingwood
North Melb....Essendon
Port Adel.......Adelaide
Richmond......Collingwood
St.Kilda.........Collingwood
Sydney..........???
West Coast....Essendon
Bulldogs........Essendon
