Hopefully it's not a Sydney v Freo grand final :evil: :evil: :evil:

Would love to see the grand final teams consist of either the dogs, tigers or roos

No bigtime Hawker, no WB media darlings or Adelaide.

Of the rest, teams I don't mind if they do win the GF:

Swans
Dockers, WC Eagles, Richmond, North Melb

Think I'll barrack for Tigers or Doggies in the finals.

The city of Melbourne will 'go off' if the Tigers win.

There isn't really a team that I don't want to win. Tired of hating on teams. Seeing the Filth and Geelong win in the last five or so years was exhausting enough.

In terms of teams I don't mind winning:

Scraggers versus Tiges would be the dream grand final, but it won't happen.

If both those teams don't advance (as predicted), I'll be backing the Swans. As far as I'm concerned, it would be great if Adam Goodes got to end his great career with the ultimate glory and all the bigots are left with egg on their faces.

But at the end of the day, the best result would be for an even finals series and a great game of footy played in the grand final.

Anyone but Lyin's Liars.

... Except The Salary Cap cheats.
I couldn't stomach those parasites winning.

Anyone else will do!

I don't really mind who wins as long as it is not for Freo or the Swans and it is not because Lyon did the dirty on us.
I don't want Freo to win because I just cannot stand the style of football they play it is so negative.
And yes I know we were negative under Ross too but when you are winning it is watchable.
So for the Dockers' supporters it is probably great to watch for everyone else it is appalling.
I don't want the Swans to win because I lived in Sydney for many many years and spent a lot of time at the SCG listening to their brain dead supporters spouting absolute bollocks about the game proving time and time again that they had absolutely no idea what they are talking about and that they should stick to league as that is far more suitable for the knuckle dragging ignoramuses ... trying to convince us that the spirit of the bloods is alive and well when in reality it died under the crushing weight of Dirty Geoff's pink helicopter as he fleeced the poor saps of their hard gotten dough to help fund his misses's plastic surgery addiction..... Sorry got a little carried away there.

Oh dumb,dumb Loris read the heading incorrectly......... I read it as 'DO' you wan't to win the Granny.

So I selected Western Bullies, as I believe in fairy tales, and think it would be so good for the competition for them to get the Holy Grail.

Now reading the question as it was meant 'Which team DON'T you want to win the Granny........... It is Fremantle.

Poll doesn't allow me to fix my error which is a bummer........... Go Bullies!

Lyon will be resting half his side this week. As expected.

You're not a dumb-dumb at all, Loris. I also made the same mistake. You'd generally think someone would ask who you do want you to win a grand final, as opposed to don't want to win.

Bulldogs winning would be a wonderful thing for the game. They of course have the connection with us through their coach Lukey Beveridge. In my comment I said there would be no chance of Richmond playing against them in the grand final. But there certainly isn't no chance of the Bulldogs themselves making the grand final.

Which foul team??? O, I could but name seventeen!!! :evil:


Alas my St Kilda, the course of true love never did run smooth. :cry:

But name any other, these words are razors to my wounded heart. Everyone can master a grief but he that has it.

But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve for daws to peck at. True nobility is exempt from fear!

plugger thinks that any real Saints fan would want Freo to win the flag.

So I wanted to test his theory.

I really should've just had the top 4 sides, as we all know that's where the flag is won, but to be 100% fair I included all 8 teams

Now you are lying. I told you why I said it. Please don't lie. It is a silly poll anyway. People may not want 7 sides to win the flag.

That would have a fantastic atmosphere I think. Great for our economy also.
