I'll be wearing my Warriors beanie and scarf I got when doing the Sonny Fai charity drive and supporting the Warriors this weekend.

Go Warriors, they haven't won it before whereas manly would have only had to wait 3 years as well as they fact that I can't stand Manly and probably most NSW teams, the only two I can say I don't have some hatred for is the Tigers and the Panthers.

I will.......because I'm an Aussie and as an Aussie I'll get behind an Australian based side Vs a side from another country.

You think the Kiwis don't see this as NZ V Australia........:crazy:

Carn Manly....you bunch of f*cken merkins, keep the NRL premiership in Australia

and do us proud for once in your miserable lives.

We did smash the cheating Storm in '08. That counts, right?

Again, if any Sydney team were good enough to make it to the decider with the Warriors, most of Australia would be cheering on NZ.

No passionate Sydney league supporter would go for the Sydney teams in these scenarios;

Saints vs Warriors
Bulldogs vs Warriors
Parra vs Warriors
I think the difference with any of those scenarios, though, is that team would fill out 70% of the stadium with their supporters anyway. Hell, last year Saints played another Sydney team and still had 75+% of the crowd.

With Manly, they don't have enough supporters.

The only reasons any Sydney-siders cheered them on at the 2008 Grand Final were:

1) Steve Menzies
2) They played Melbourne

This year none of those apply, and neutrals have a genuinely likable side to cheer on as they are nobody's rivals and can play an exciting brand.

Go the Warriors!!
