I know someone who is also a Brisbane Roar season ticket holder who didn’t attend last year’s Grand Final and won’t attend this year’s one because he is a mormon.
Roar deal Mariners a massive psychological blow
As a student and a Den member my seat was actually cheaper than the normal season prices. Den student normal season $19, finals $14.
FFA prices turn fans away from A-League finals
I think it also has something to do with a certain Mr. Murdoch
Channel Ten's contribution to the AFL underestimated
As much as the Warriors don’t deserve to be there I was going for them last week because I hate the Storm and I’ll be going for them in the GF as I hate Manly
Warriors have no right to be in the Grand Final
Fact Broncos v Manly Round 26 SOLD OUT 3 weeks before the match
Please, anyone but Manly
I’ll be going to two GCU home games this season (listed below):
GCU v Brisbane Roar
GCU v Brisbane Roar
Go the Roar!
Is it time to change our thinking on Gold Coast United?
Darren Lockyer to Rugby League is what Sachin Tendulkar is to cricket e.g. no matter how much you hate the Indian Cricket Team, if you don’t admire Sachin Tendulkar than you’re not a true cricket fan (coming from someone in the Fast Bowlers Union). Likewise for Darren Lockyer except the fact that I’m lucky enough to support Broncos, Queensland and Australia.
Lockyer's legend makes the beatings bearable
You forgot to mention Matt Dunning out of the sexy rugby players.
The Rugby World Cup and female bonding
Not a big Union fan but I do as a Queenslander go for the Reds, but the Crusaders are a team I respect and if there is one team we have to lose to in the final it’s them.
Why I want both Reds and Crusaders to win
Next phase of expansion: Western Bulldogs and North Melbourne Merger (North and Western Melbourne Bulldogs) and new Hobart team.
2nd next phase of expansion: New Launceston and Canberra team
3rd phase: New Northern Australia team (representing Northern Territory, Tropical parts of Queensland and PNG) and Cape Town team
4th phase: Johannesburg and Durban team.
24 team comp, 23 rounds.
Victoria ruling the AFL, but for how much longer?
Also forgot to mention the Asian Champions League games involving Australian Team on Tier B
How the anti-siphoning law should look
If you read the thing properly it states it must be live on one of the channels and if not live on the main channel than six hour delay is the maximum on the main channel.
How the anti-siphoning law should look
I’m a Lions fan but I’ve never have been cheering so hard in a match that didn’t involve my beloved Lions or the evil Pies. And I was pissing myself laughing when Westhoff missed.
Gold Coast Suns shine in breakthrough triumph
I have a better system. My final 9 system
Week 1 (Qualifying Finals)
Teams 1, 2 & 3 receive a first week bye.
4v9
5v8
6v7
Winners advance, losers eliminated
Week 2 (Semi Finals)
1 v lowest qualified winner from Week 1
2 v second highest qualified winner from Week 1
3 v highest qualified winner from Week 1
Highest qualified winner gets a bye and direct passage to the Grand Final. Other two winners advance to the Preliminary final. Losers eliminated.
Week 3 (Preliminary Final)
Second highest qualified winner from Week 2 v Lowest qualified winner from Week 2
Winner goes into Grand Final, loser eliminated.
Week 4 (Grand Final)
Highest qualified winner from Week 2 v Preliminary Final winner
AFL needs to make it perfect 10 in 2012
I never intended to followed this plastic competition, but when Brisbane Heat announce that they were wearing the colours of Port Adelaide (AFL team I hate because they beat the Lions in the 2004 GF), Brisbane Heat will not be getting my support.
Go the Bulls and the Aussie Cricket Team but not the Heat!
Would you buy a used series from these guys?
Better be shown live or at a decent time into Brisbane
Great AFL rivalries: Collingwood vs Carlton
It should’ve been cut to 12 teams two groups of six.
Cricket Australia support World Cup minnow cull
Rugby World Cup on Channel 9 this year?
Now I’m more annoyed!
Shame, Channel Nine. Shame
Bernie “Gabba” Vegas is easily the worst mascot ever.
Coming from a Lions fan
Sporting mascots: the worst of the worst
I hope GCU stay as much as I hate them. Football needs a villain team to hate. GO THE ROAR!
Is the writing on the wall for Gold Coast United?
Chris Martin from the blackcaps comes to mind, batting average of just over 2 iirc
Should cricket introduce a bowling version of batting bunnies?
