No other team I like. I don't go to any effort to watch any other games any more, outside of the finals.

I watch none of the Melbourne win, saw about 10 minutes of the last qtr of the Carlton win, didn't see any of the Geelong win and watched a total of 30 minutes of the Sydney game while doing other stuff and none of the Brisbane win.

Your soft spot teams in the AFL

Post by 23 YIPPEE!!! »

I am not sure if this has been done before but like to everyones soft spot teams.

Mines:

St.Kilda and
Sorry fellow pies but i really kind of like Carlton but in the AFLW and VFLW tho.

I like their team the blues aflw and vflw side and nice like minded fans.

Always had a soft spot for st.kilda.

Was sydney swans back the 1980s before the AFL started to prop them up.

Kind of Melbourne as well as it brings back the nostaligic 1950s but i just think of them as toffy and they remind me of Barrassi too much and his anti pies antics.

Carlton AFL W and VFLW i mean.

Not the other version of the Blues that have cost Collingwood premierships.

I think its fair that i do have a soft spot for them.

Also St.kilda as i was brought up in the 1980s around the Bentleigh and Moorabin area so i guess it felt more local for me st.kilda and went to the local school and mates were saints.

I also dont mind North Melbourne either but they are on the other side of town.

I go for whoever is playing west coast or carlton.
I don't have a soft spot for anyone, those 2 are the ones I hate the most.

And to answer your question 90... no. I've been around too long to have soft spots for other teams.

Before the age of 8, I would have said St Kilda. But then I grew up near Waverley and they gave me the absolutes. In 1997, I was going for Adelaide in the GF. And in 2010, it felt fkn great to get that flag from them!!

Back before Foxtel, Swans and Eagles games would be shown a lot on TV. I used to like both, just based on exposure. Now they can both Git *!
