Sydney Swans:( how disappointing (1 Viewer)

[frodo]

i went to the game last night, the crowd was great, if only it hadnt rained. the swans cant handle the wet like the victorian teams. sooo frustrating!

I know..........cos we never get rain up here during the games..................unlike Victorian weather................

When there was 12 minutes on the clock and they were 2 goals down I thought shit we've got a chance...............

We didnt get enough ball........we spent most of the game inside Collingwoods 50.........

I think that the worst part is that we actually have an AFL team in Sydney!

 

[frodo]

what? why?

I just don't like AFL.
I have always seen it as a Victorian sport, not a national game.

AFL's still more of a national game than Rugby League though

Of course nothing comes close to FOOTBALL, THE WORLD GAME

I agree with Suvat. Many New South Welshmen find AFL, or GayFL as some would like to call it, a Victorian sport. But when you actually look at it on the wider scale, you would find that this is more national than you think. For instance, say the NRL comp. We have...the Knights, Panthers, Sharks, Bulldogs...and so on. These are mainly located within NSW. The only interstate teams are: the Broncos, Cowboys, Storm, Warriors and Raiders. The only states involved in the comp. would be NSW, Qld, Melbourne, and ACT (if you must).

On the contrary, AFL is a much more widespread game. It ranges from teams in Qld, to NSW, to Melbourne, to South Australia, and all the way west to our mates in Western Australia. If this is considered as a 'Victorian' sport, then I beg to differ.

Cheerio

Watched the prelim against Brissy - what a bugger, I thought we were in with a shot at the last change. Just hope they give Collingwood a right good thumping in the GF.

Go Carlton for next year. Pagan all the way
