Mr_Wright95 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Bumping since no update for 2024. Pretty surprising start for the reigning grand finalists. think the wheels have fallen off at Brisbane with the off field stuff. Freo my team have started very well, curious how we go against Carlton next week. Current Premiership favourites in my book are GWS Edited March 31 by Mr_Wright95 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHIL_DADDY1 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 @ddracarys Oh no! I'm no ex-pat, the other day when I mentioned it, I was referring to you, not me. I'm Aussie born & bred. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression you were a Kiwi too, haha. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I did watch last year's grand final on television because, A, KISS were the pre-match act (saw the band in-concert on September 6, 2022 and I'd say they did good that night) and, B, one of two Queensland teams was in it. NGL, having the Lions lose to Collingwood by little difference in score followed by the Broncos losing to the Panthers also by little difference in score at the NRL grand final the next day was painful. That's despite the Lions being in a sport which, again, I don't quite get (yet?) and the Broncos as a team I'm kinda sick of (Dolphins fan here now, I suppose). But you know what? I'd watch any AFL match before laying my eyes on even a minute of cricket. I simply cannot get myself to like that sport at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Wright95 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 It truly amazes me how captivated QLD is by NRL compared to the AFL. Most WA blokes (not all, but most) couldn't care less about NRL here. Really amazing how massive the difference is between states 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still a rugby boy at heart though, having lived in New Zealand for most of my life. Rugby union is just the sport that makes most sense to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre51 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Ridiculous how tight the ladder still is this deep into the season apart from the Swans I can't guess what the final 8 will be 2 wins separate 2-13. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Wright95 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 As a Freo supporter I think coming into this year I would take how the year has gone, but man it is so frustrating how inconsistent we are and how easily we could have set ourselves up for a top 4 finish if we banked wins we should have gotten. Crazy ladder and year for sure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre51 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 As I Giants supporter I am the same, just don't know if the orange tsunami is going to show up or whether its just a trickle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
