My mum used to say, Jimbo, that sarcasm was the meanest form of wit. But, even as a native-born West Australian, I have to give your blokes credit for that win over a team with a thuggish attitude. I love it when the Eagles lose. And I love it even more when my sainted boys from Richmond win (which they have done many times this year). Cheers, Tony

I have heard that you either barrack for Collingwood, or you barrack for all of the others. Now, to me that smacks of lack of committment, given there are 17 "others" in the comp and any one of 17 will do.
but AFL is NOT just bl***y football but is actually a religion ... and Collingwood is either the prophet or the devil incarnate, depending on viewpoint .

My Dad came from Victoria, and my daughter-in-law, so I know how 'religious' footy fans can get!
Just to stir the pot, Dad was a Lions fan and d-i-l is a Swans fan.
As for me, I couldn't give a bugga about any footy!
