How anyone states we should support the victorian side.
State politics is irrelevant in team sports. Let GWS win now whilst we arent good enough to contend, and we can knock them off later.
It’s easy Thry ... unless the opposition is Essendon
One of the shocks I received when I did military service was the vitriol directed to Victorians from those from other states. South Australians and Western Australians were the worst, but New South Welshmen (they were all male
) and Queenslanders were involved too. Since then, I have disliked sporting teams from WA, SA, NSW and QLD in that order and in any sport. NSW jumps a few spots when it comes to cricket. A couple of good mates are Tigers supporters and I know that they won’t gloat for more than a week. That to me is preferable to the gloating that we have to suffer from the Gloch and the pain of seeing Toby Greene with his mitts on the cup.
