What's your favourite Australian Rules Football team?

went for carlton, cos they got the irish boy.

Please note that this is limited to current AFL teams - my sincere apologies go out there if you're a fan of a small town amateur team like the Golden Point Rice Eaters of the Ballarat Football League.

Essendon Bombers sounds like a breakdance crew, so them.

Went with Sydney Swans since it's my wife's hometown and they've got the feyest name of them all.

Growing up and watching matches on ESPN in the states, back when ESPN was not the monster that it has since become, I liked these guys:

One of the only things I remember about living in Adelaide wrt to Aussie rules is "stone the crows" but I can't remember if that's a good or bad thing to say. Anyway I voted for them.

Good man, even through it seems like every team has an Irish boy these days. Also, Carlton are the greatest team ever (i you don't count 2000-07).

YOU should know from YOUR WIFE that nobody in Sydney cares about Aussie Rules!!

Hawthorn's original name was the "Mayblooms". No, really.

It's all about the Sydney Razorbacks, I know.

Er, that's a basketball team!

My family's from Geelong - easy.

Yes, most Geelong girls are.

(*boom boom tssh*)

My sister could beat you up. Really easily.

Oh, send me her number then. Most guys have to pay for that service.

She probably would use a beer glass on you because you're from Adelaide.

Well, I wouldn't expect any less from a Geelong girl.

ANYWAY, back slightly on topic, I hate reading every fucking ANZAC Day how Collingwood and Essendon are the greatest teams ever and only they should be allowed to play on the day despite how crap they are.

None. AFL is a fucking mugs and cunce sport.

"Fremantle team is NOT named after a brand of clothing."

A fact which would be blindingly obvious to anybody who has seen the ridiculous get-up worn by the FD's. Purple, green, about 127 other colors, with this stupid anchor on the front (Dockers, geddit?)

(And more often than not this other stupid anchor INSIDE the jumper.)

Have port adelaide recovered from their embarrassing showing in the final last season yet?

I had a thing for Collingwood when they used to show this shit on Channel 4.

You just summed up the attraction of it!

No, and I haven't failed to remind my Port Power following mates of this (who are for some reason an Englishman and an American in Adelaide).

Tonight's match is insane. Fremantle doing well against Geelong + Big Arse Inflatable Anchors on top of the stand at Subiaco.

So that you know, I REFUSE to watch this weekend's SHAM that is called "The Hall of Fame Match". Bring back State of Origin (as long as its South Australia versus Victoria because Western Australia is weak) or have a East-West All-Star Match. Not this half arsed shite!

This has been a King Boy Pato Public Service Announcement.
