if that is a back handed compliment or not <LOL> BUT anyone who calls me a young anything wins hands down <VBG> especially considering at 9.10am on Tuesday 13th Sept another year of the calendar turns over for me !
It's amazing that I couldn't be heard screaming at the TV all over Australia when the game was on - all I will say is that the Power just didn't get their act together on the night & much to my husband's & South Aussie's families disgust I sure WILL be barracking for the West Coast Eagles next week - anyway the Dockers aren't there this time.
BTW - just don't ask Caz what I was like when she drove me past the hallowed grounds of Subbie oval when I was in Perth <LOL>
Anyway for the rest of this season I'm following my early Perth families team - hopefully all the way through to the finals.After all I can trace my history back to 1898 in Perth so that's my excuse- that & the fact that I just HATE the damn Crows !
Re the comment about forumites being only aerial ping pong focussed & AFL being confined to a small part of Australia - hate to say it BUT since SA,NSW,Qld,WA & SA are ALL involved only 2 Territories (NT & ACT ) & 1 state ( Tassie) are NOT involved.The majority here on BTF are Aussies & many of us ARE sports mad & enjoy having a friendly dig at each other,especially our mates & we DO sometimes watching sports in Bali - so shoot us .Hey -Nothing wrong with that in my books.
As I said before on the Western food thread - a case of each to his or her own.I rarely take offence & never mean any to any one - I just think we are all entilted to have an opinion.
