Welcome to the life of a Geelong suppoorter mate. The worst common denominators which you haven't metioned are the moronic Crows supporter that follow Port in the GF, they're worse than either of the groups you metioned. Morons of the highest degree with chips on their shoulders who aren't real football fans IMHO.


I won't go as far as saying they're morons, but I really dislike the fence-sitting 'SA supporter' mentality. There are 2 teams in SA and they are ARCH RIVALS. You support one and hate the other.

The worst example is the select few that attend the showdown wearing a scarfe from each club. This presents the only situation in which a Power and Crows fan can unite - in telling such a punter to MAKE YOUR BLOODY MIND UP!


Would that be the same as going to watch the Power with supporters of the Power wearing Port Magpies Jumpers?

Nah - I know some people have a problem with it. I don't.

I see people at SANFL games all the time wearing the colours of their AFL club.

You see it in the VFL too.

Play on I reckon.

There's the Crows v Power rivalry for some

Then there's the healthy dislike of all Victorian clubs for others - it depends which one they hate the most I suppose :D

To me it is and always will be the Port Adelaide Football Club. I know almost everyone here hates that some of us Port people regard the 2 teams as 1 entity, but it's clear in my mind.

If I was a port supporter - which im not. I would be cringing everytime choco takes the mic. he and the team are comin accross way to cocky and confident. I think this behaviour will come and bite them on the butt. you dont see any nrevousness with chocco, and the dig he had at King in the press conference was not called for.

If I was a geelong suporter, I would be happy seeing the nerves and concentration on their coach and players faces!

You'd be happy that your team looks nervous?

You've gotta back yourself if you believe you will win. If the Cats are nervous at any time tomorrow, the Power will jump all over them!

it's natural to be nervous the eve before the match - thats my point. im not seeing that for the port camp. Geelong are not talking themselves up, just being calm and calculated. I think they will rip out the gates tomorrow, i think they will use this pressure and expode.

BTW - i aint a port hater, just a footy lover.

just another quote i just heard "All expetations are on Geelong, if they dont deliver, they'll tear the place down"

don't like it chocco, concentrate on your side and quit the physcological battle. Atleast thompson is ignoring it all. chocco is really following a plan this week thats for sure.

another quote from Williams

They have lost all four of their past four deciders and have not won a premiership for 44 years.

"Port Adelaide have a huge tradition of upsetting favourites," Williams said. "It seems to me like it is meant to be.

what a load of crap, hope PA get THUMPED

Port need to play mind games to upset the cats. But looking at Geelong and the support staff Blamey, Thompson and Hocking will keep all the players in check and all the past players who played in those lost grand finals and missed chances in the 80's would be telling the players to focus on the prize at the end of the day. Enjoy the moment but win the prize. GO YOU MIGHTY CATS. And when the ball is bounced to the final bell stand up and FIGHT LIKE HELL

At least the Crows fans going for the Cats realise its club footy and are real fans.
I bet a few Norwood fans are cheering for Harley and rightfully so.


In is not neccessaryily the Crows fans jumping ship and cheering for Port in the Grandfinal.....

They are cheering for South Aussie against a VIC.........

Nothing Wrong With That is there....? :lol:

As my esteemed mother so aptly puts it and I Quote "They're not South Australian! They're from Alberton." Port are SA's Collingwood. You love them or hate them. There's no middle ground here, no swinging voters. I happen to hate them but that's me. Just remember the immortal words mentioned above. They're not South Australian!
