How does it feel for Victorians to know that the Swans & West Coast are the Best in their League ?

Question

Actually watched some of it here last night from Sydney ! Still can't sit through the whole thing, but did enjoy part of what must be a great atmoshpere at the ground even though theres no tackling and to much thumbling about !

Answer 1

Insular people from interstate keep forgetting it's a national game and that the interstate teams are full of Victorians.

If you want to troll go to Big Footy and keep this forum for serious discusion.

Answer 2

All week we heard a grand final re-match boy i bet they were surprised when they saw the final score OMG what a game ........

Answer 3

hey i am a western australian and  i think that EAGLES ARE CHEATS..... THEY ONLY WIN BECAUSE OF DRUGS IM TELLING YOU NOW IF EAGLES USED NO DRUGS THEY WOULD OF WON  NO 2006 PREMIERSHIP...................

SWANS ARE JUST A GOOD TEAM.......

Answer 4

What a great game. I love their matches.. 3 matches in a row decided by a point! Well done to the eagles even though I wanted Sydney to win. I think you are forgetting an important factor in this, Fremantle and Adelaide in the best 4 also.. maybe not in Round 1 but the last 5 or so years has been dominated by Interstate. At least I can hold my head up high with the Saints considered the best Victorian team :)

As for your question I don't think it doesn't make us feel any different. It just makes the Victorian teams want that premiership even more!

Answer 5

Personally it doesn't worry me that much, but this year could be the year for a Victorian team to win the premiership!

Answer 6

The Vics must be hating  this, to see interstate teams looking like they are premiership material again.

It was another great game from these 2 sides, how good are West Coast.

Answer 7

Beware the Doggies!  

1954 & 2007

Answer 8

well - since no Victorian club has won a flag since Essendon in 2000, and no Victorian club has made a grand final since 2003, you'd actually think they'd be getting pretty used to it by now.  but they don't award premierships until September, and there's a couple of other teams that will be competitive as well.

Answer 9

The insular Mexicans have been filthy for years about the success of non Victorian clubs.

I think it's hilarious and I love to remind them of it

Answer 10

the tied will turn  sooner rather than later I'm a Victorian and it doesn't bother me just as long as you see good football let the Victorian clubs catch up lot more money over in Sydney and the west they can afford to keep there players

Answer 11

the west coast are hated more by the vics then sydney, u just had to listen to the commentry of the game last night, i cant believe those people can get jobs in the media being so obviously one eyed.

Answer 12

I'm from Vic and i think its a good thing because the AFL is all of the country its not the VFL any more. West coast are the best because the swans play  a bad brand of footy until the last quarter when they are loosing like in round one against west coast

Answer 13

being a victorian id have to say that it doesn't bother me at all,yes id like to see a couple of vic sides in the granny  but if they're not then so be it,as long as we get a good game on grand final day,either way the b.b.q will still be fired up and the beers will still be cold.

nice to hear you gave the AFL ago Wayne a.

Answer 14

the vics should stop complaining and get some good teams.

Answer 15

Hopefully it burns them to the core!!

backtoback

GO WEST COAST!!!

' joseph g '  you're a d**k!!

Answer 16

as a west aussie i hope it feels baaaad  for the vics.   we have had to put up with their arrogant c**p for ions.  the tide has turned.   yiiipppeeee. it will be a  looong  time b4 any vic team is good enough to win  a  flag.   rock on outsiders.. show em how its done!!!!

Answer 17

What a wonderful question. From the Sydney, West Coast lists combined of (90 players), 33 are Born and bred Victorian, and thats not including the Sydney coaching panel. Judd and Goodes are also Brownlow medallist's, and 'learn't ' the game in Victoria.   Brisbane has 12 Vic's on its list and When you estimate that that it cost's 6 mil a year to run a club, each year 60 mil is found in Victoria, 12 WA and SA and 6 QLD and NSW.   Brisbane and Sydney with the lowest(state) finnancial output in the comp are both coached by Victorians and between them have competed in  the last 6 Grand Finals, after being propped up by Victoria, ever since they were established from Fitzroy and Sth Melb.  I just think it is Fantastic for Victoria, being  such a small state to continue being the backbone and instigator of the best football code in the world.   If the other 4 competing states could ever come close to the output of what Victoria provides the AFL today, how good would the game be then.

Answer 18

Well I think Swans and West Coast fans are happy to see that the season has started how it left off. Sadly for me the result went the wrong way AGAIN..lol.. but congrats to the Eagles. What a great match. These two sides bring out the competition in each other and I always look forward to them   playing. Hopefully the GF will go our way this year !! Yeah well done Sydney and West Coast, another thriller and congrats to all the other teams who won this round.

Answer 19

Personally they are pissed but i really don't care because ther are general competion between all leages and I am Pure Blooded SYDNEY SWANS FAN
