Which Team's Bandwagon Are You Jumping On In The Finals?

Who the actual f*#k would consider souths winning a feel good story?

Well I guess I'm basing that off the positive stories that were generated for the game off the back of their 2014 premiership. I can see how fans of their fiercest rivals wouldn't see it that way, but I believe it would be true for many neutrals.

Anyone picking Eels/Sharks/8th obviously wants to pick a new bandwagon in 3 weeks

Anyway if we bomb out early I'd be ok with Raiders getting it done

If the Raiders go out, i'll be on the roosters.
It feels weird but i actually find them a pretty likable team... their coach is fantastic and i really appreciate the way he handles the press and comments on the game.
I think they play tough, hard but have incredible skill, they're a fun team to watch

and this is a miserable finals for bandwagoning. I basically hate most the other teams in the 8, they've all got irredeemable aspects of their game/team/org that rules them out for me.
If the Raiders lose, a storm roosters GF would be A ok with me.

Outside of the Sharks, I wouldn't mind the following to win:
  • Storm - Receive overblown criticism, and it would be amusing to hear the cries of 'the storm have ruined the league'
  • Roosters - Genuinely a fun team to watch. Cronk, Keary, Tedesco, and Mitchell all in the backs that offer a good mix of experienced direction and exciting ad hoc play.
  • Manly - Really against team loyalties here, but it would be hilarious to have Trent Barrett come out and claim credit again.

How sad do you have to be, to be that affected by other fans not liking your team...?

(Questions generally have a ? at the end... Just saying)

Hey I'm not fussed. I just find it weird for people to be enough of a footy fan to waste their time on here but then willingly skip the Grand Final because of the teams involved. Best day of the year no matter who's playing.

Nah I get it - I'd put my house on the fact they will all be watching on the day, but tell everybody they didn't...

If someone doesn't like how particular teams play and don't get enjoyment from it, why are they sad? I think it'd be sadder for them to watch it whilst actively hating it.

Really? On a online forum you are going to criticise punctuation and grammar?

Yeah, I do that a lot.

Also, why does it being an online forum negate the need for correct punctuation?

That’s rich considering you have that POS Maria Handbags in your team.

He doesn't step on players calves, knee in the back, try to twist players ankles in tackles and that's just Rapana. They all do it. Anyway I don't have to support another team yet, how about you though, time to start finding a finals team.

You’re right. Everyone should start using proper punctuation online. So let’s start with you...

Incorrect use of comma there.

Your comprehension of English is so poor that you assumed there had to be a comma between two consecutive uses of ‘to be’. You’re wrong, and I hope you burn in hell.

If we're being serious, consecutive uses of 'to be' is pretty sloppy sentence structure and @ACTPanthers should have revised it before posting, negating the use of a dubious comma altogether.

"How sad do you have to be to let other fans' dislike of your team affect you"

Ahh, that's better.
I hope I used the right "affect" though.
