When there's a Collingwood game approaching I get a bit more enthusiastic, anxious, agitated as there's some pride at stake. We are playing a rival and, in some way, an equal. I know Collingwood are (the last week aside) performing better as a team and a club, but they seem worthy of our attention. If we beat Collingwood by a point, I'm elated.
To me though, the Bombers are just s**t. A collection of pox faced thugs who are not worthy of our attention. Scum of the earth, a bucket of human waste covered in red and black material. When I find out someone is a Bombers supporter they immediately go down in my estimation, to the point where I don't think I'd employ them, rent them a house or even sell them something, unless the job was s**t, the house was condemned or the goods in question were faulty to the point of being dangerous to humans.
I like beating them by a point but I'd rather 25 goals because then I get to gloat from halfway through the second quarter. I cheer every goal like it was the match winner. Bashing them senseless in the 2011 elimination final was just about my favourite day of the last 15 years. I still prefer to watch it to the '99 Prelim.
WE won '99 by a point but that's resonated for so long because of the importance of the game and their status as run away flag favourites.
The Bombers are not worthy of being our biggest rivals, they don't deserve that recognition.
