It's that time again...

[Meth]

Which bandwagon are you on for 2017?

I thought about the Panthers. I like Cleary, but despise Tamou.

I can't see myself getting to a top 8 and cheering on the Storm, Broncos, Roosters, Sea Eagles.

Not keen on the Sharks.

It's a case of who is left? I reckon I'll get on the Eels.

 

[Warriorsoul]

I'm not super fussed on the top eight, loving watching the Knights late season renaissance and the Tigers slowly righting their ship. Probly the Panthers come post season

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Hop on the underdog team Not that we are guaranteed to be there yet

 

[Blair]

The Storm.

The power and the glory! Including two wingers with genuine pace, my favourite part of rugby league.

 

[ozbash]

Broncs or Roosters I guess.

Shame the Tigers didn't make it, I'd buy a jersey

 

[LeagueNut]

Panthers or Roosters. Everyone else can go to hell

 

[TheDMC]

Not the storm or chooks.

 

[spear tackle]

No one in particular , just wanting to see some class, determination and cohesive teams working and imagine what may have been or may be one day in the distant future.

 

[Skinner]

Panthers for moi

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Anyone but the Storm. I think I posted that last year, and I mean it. It would make me very happy if the big 3 retired with only one legitimate premiership.

Eels for me. They won't win it but I like them.

 

[One Warrior]

Parra.

 

[jaseg]

Cowboys because of all those injuries. Their no-hope status makes me feel like I'm supporting the Warriors in the finals again.

 

[Diesel]

Parramatta Panthers for mine

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Storm because they're everything we're not.

Was a Panthers fan before the Warriors existed, so has to be them - can't stand Melbourne, Brisbane, Roosters or Manly...

I am not, and never was, a Panthers fan.

However, sitting on the train to Olympic Park on Saturday and seeing all the eager and fresh GWS Giants AFL fans I realised the game needs the Panthers to be doing well.

I did have a bit of a chuckle to myself though. If GWS' results go south for a couple of years, as they invariably do with footy teams, then I doubt many of these 'new' AFL fans will go down with them.
