Title: Love and Hate Scale
Post by: Purple 77 on February 04, 2012, 06:33:50 PM

Trying to see how football fans feel about other teams. Everyone has a team they support, but I'm not sure how much they like or dislike a team...

Could be interesting....

I like GWS because I have 8 of their players in my DT, and a good mate of mine ACTUALLY GOES FOR THEM AND HE'S NOT FROM NSW!?!?!?!?!?

Does he actually follow AFL? Seems bizarre!

Yeah he does, well into WAFL and has done DT for a few years, went for the saints but something about GWS appealed to him so he changed.

Reckon if you compared the players that come out of Tassie, against the players that have come out of GWS, Tassie would win every time!

there is no tassie team because they are trying to figure oout whether to charge admission per head or body :)

There's simply more money for the big men in making a GWS team than a Tasmania team

Simple as that.

The AFL may make a profit after 10 years if they're really lucky with GWS
Title: Re: Love and Hate Scale
Post by: TheMailman on February 10, 2012, 09:55:59 PM
But where would the money come from if they made a Tasmania team?

Its not a rhetorical question, I'd much rather have had a Tassie team than a GWS team.

I think we're getting confused between Profit and Revenue. No doubt GWS will make all sorts of Revenue with there huge population, but the costs are astronomical which leaves little or no profit.

Tassie wouldn't earn as much as revenue for sure. But the costs would be much much much smaller, the support would be much more consistent and far less fickle. They would make more profit.

The only thing I like about the Giants are their song and Adam Treloar! Otherwise, don't care.

As a Crows supporter I wouldn't have anything against whoever picks up Tippett. Just happy he's not going to be at Adelaide. And Sydney supporters should be happy they won't have the constant let downs.

I won't be that disappointed if the swans don't get him (which looks like it won't happen).

As long as he goes to a club that won't be a threat for the next 4 years

I'd be unsettled for round 6 that's for sure if both Brown and Tippett are up

They are the sworn enemy right?? Not enough history to hate them yet. Plus we will probably spend a couple of years beating them up.

I'll say 'Like them' simply because I enjoy watching the development of young teams like these blokes and GC.

As if you Swans supporters aren't saying 'Love them' atm since you're just about guaranteed two derby's against them every year! :D
