Gould and his ego have been a cancer at our club for far too long. If they let Stuart go in favour of this ugly fat duckling I will go ape sh*t at them.

Chook.

Love the newfound arrogance of Maggettes supporters.. It hurts like hell to lose Grand Finals, as a Roosters fan, I know all about it.. You will be feeling the pain next Sunday night.. start preparing for it..

Are you serious?

The BIG difference is that you expected to:

A) make the Grand Final.
B) win the Grand Final.

Our expectations at the start of this season were nothing more than hopefully a top 8 finish.

I want to win on Sunday but if we lose I'll still be happy because:

A) we went further than I ever imagined we could go.
B) we didn't lose to a team I hate.

In 2005 I don't think many Roosters fans expected a Grand Final appearance.. I personally thought it would be a Bronco's v Bulldogs GF at the start of the year. Of course I realise Tigers fans weren't expecting a GF but in the last couple of months I have seen and experienced first hand arrogance from the Tigers fans that i haven't seen from supporters of the other teams in the 8, with the exception of Eels fans.

I was at the ground on Saturday night and was abused by many Tigers fans for wearing a Roosters top.. I had Dragons fans and would you believe Bulldogs fans actually patting me on the back and saying good luck in the PL Grand Final next week.. I sat with Dragons fans during the match and they were very down to earth.. I guess the scars of so many big game losses in recent years has taken its toll as they were not confident at all of beating the Tigers.. Anyway of course their are good Tigers fans.. so enjoy the moment..

That's good to hear. I'll be seated in a supposedly designated Tigers area on Sunday, and I'll be wearing my Roosters gear in support of PL. Hope I don't have a similar experience, particularly since I'll be chearing loudly for the Tigers in 1st Grade.

Maybe Phool Gould can get a job with Graham Murray at the Cowboys...on second thoughts, probably not. And Thank Christ for that.

I'm a roosters fan and I couldn't give a f**k about the swans... I was hoping West Coast would win so the media in Sydney would shut the f#ck up about the stupid VFL!

Don't know how you came to that conclusion... I certainly wasn't thinking we'd be a shoe in this year, not after having our captain and playmaker retire last year. Anyway, I don't know if anyone's told you this, but it's bloody hard to win a premiership! No one goes into the begining of the year expecting to win the comp before even the first point is scored... you'd have to have some serious dellusions if you did.

I do support the Tah's, I won't hide that, but I've always been a fan of union. I grew up with both sports and I think they're both great games. But AFL is a game for unco girls, much in the same way american football is.

Of course I do. I played both and I like both! At least I'm not like all the wannabe's around here who go on about how great the NFL is!

Are you saying you didn't watch the RWC final or this years S12 final?
You didn't watch any of the ashes cause it conflicted with the league aswell then I guess.

Ouch! A little harsh. I suppose you would then bag out people like me who follow Sydney FC as well?

There you go again.

You're trying to compare your experiences as a Roosters supporter with the experience a Wests Tigers supporter is about to go through.

We've come from nowhere to make this GF, since day one we've been sh*t, until now. Anything above making the 8 is a bonus for virtually every true Wests Tigers supporter.

None of us under under any illusions as to how hard it is to win a comp but the fact is that we're 80 minutes away from that distinct possibility.

If we lose on the weekend, I'll be anything but crushed. This has been a f**king awesome year no matter the result.
