What AFL football team do you go for?

Question

What AFL football team do you go for?

Why?

Collingwood,Calton, North Melbourne, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hawkthorn,Sydney, Essondon, Fremantle,West coast, Richmond, St Kilda, Geelong, Kangaroos, & Port Adelaide.

Answer 1

Geelong.

When I discovered the game in the mid 80's, seemed like Geelong was the match of the round most weeks on the highlights here in America.

Also, seemed like Gaz Sr. was the goal or mark of the week, just about every week. Gaz and Billy were the goal kicking machines of the day and that is how I latched on to Geelong.

Been to 30 senior matches in my five trips to Oz from Kansas.

Answer 2

lol North Melbourne is now the Kangaroo's. I go for the West Coast Eagles!! and we won last night even without 3 of our greats, Judd, Cousins and Chick. Kerr really took on the role!! Who do you support??

Answer 3

karina, hi, i have always followed the hawks, because my dad did too, he is long gone now, but i carry the tradition on.

who do you follow in the footy?

Answer 4

I'm a St Kilda supporter because my mum is (and she taught me good ^.^)

and my mum is a St Kilda supporter becasue when she first came to Australia (from Germany) she lived in a town where the local team was 'the saints' and wore Red, White and Black. Go Saints! :D

I don't mind the other clubs... it's just some of their one-eyed supporters that are the problem. I hate people who think their club is perfect and their players can do no wrong OR bag their team if they're on the bottom!!! it's not right - that's not supporting your club! and believe me, I know. St Kilda spent three seasons at the bottom of the ladder (early 2000's) and also have the most wooden spoons of any club!

Answer 5

Collingwood!

2008 premiers

Lol!

Answer 6

i go for the mighty pies. i've barracked for them since i can remember. My dad goes for collingwood so i kinda learnt about them through him. But now i'm a way more passionate supporter than him. i'm 15 so i've never seen them win a premiership so i really want them to win one soon!!!!

GO PIES!!!!!!!

Answer 7

As one of Australias Proudest men in history in 2005,

  i am extremely embarresed in 2008 to say the SWANS, but

think that they always hav a slow start and it was no help Adam Shneider moving to the Club of St Kilda who i believe will win the premiership. can you also answer my question where i have asked you to write youre 08 top 8.................. and who youre fav team is.

Answer 8

carlton; saw my first game in 1943 when my father took me up to prince`s park.

we lived in lygon st. near the rising sun hotel.

i went to school with john benetti e sergio silvani; sold newspapers to harry casper,  gerald burke, frank gill, e even old vinny gardner.

bert deacon e jimmy clarke were my favourites as a kid.

now living in queensland.  go the blue boys  FUZZY BEAR.

Answer 9

:O You have 16 teams in that list, but you have North Melbourne and Kangaroos.

You left out the greatest team BULLDOGS!! :)

I've gone for them since I was little, my mum doesn't know why, she went for Richmond at the time, but then I converted her to a Doggies supporter.

Answer 10

collingwood premiers 2008 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 11

My team has always been the Swans.  I grew up in South Melbourne and went to games with my uncle and brother a lot and I was really upset when they went to Sydney but now I live in N.S.W. South Coast and am a member and often go to their games and was at the 2005 Premiership down in Melbourne which was great as they hadn't won a premiership for 72 years and I'd been a supporter for a long time and seen them through the hard times including many games at the Lake Oval and lived quite close to that.   I think they did a good job against the Saints last night and only lost by 2 points.

Answer 12

SWANIES!!! (sydney lol)

Answer 13

carlton cause there the best

Answer 14

Essendon.

16 Premierships.

Has produced such stars has John Coleman, James Hird,

d**k Reynolds, Michael Long and Simon Maddern.

They play an exciting brand of football and I wouldn't be happy supporting any other time. Plus my dad and brother go for them.

Answer 15

Hawthorn, always have and alsways will

Answer 16

I am a loyal supporter of The Mighty Carlton Blues! My father has always been a fan so i guess thats where i got it from! My favourite players are SOS, Sticks, Deisel Williams, Craig Bradley, Kouta, Ang Christou, Glen Manton, Brett Ratten, Matty Lappin, Nick Stevens and Ryan Houlihan.

I look forward to seeing murphy, gibbs, walker, kruezer and many more revive the spirit of the Blues!

Answer 17

Essendon Bombers, just took me dads team when a was a very young kid

Answer 18

I've always gone for Richmond, don't know why, I think it was probably something to do with my liking for tigers that I went for them. No one else in my family goes for them.

Answer 19

Freo.

Answer 20

Collingwood fan here...family of pies just a natural progression i guess as it is in most families.

Answer 21

Umm who are Calton?

Hawkthorn?

Essondon?

& I think The Kangaroos * North Melbourne might be the same team!

What about the doggies? or Western Bulldogs.

Have you been an AFL Fan very long ??????????

Oh and I support the Adelaide Crows :)))))

Answer 22

i go for melbourne!!!

who knows why

just because when i was in primary school they were who my ffriends went for, and i didn thave a team yet, so i got into them then.

Answer 23

Unfortunately I support Melbourne, my dad followed them and introduced me to the suffering.
