    Teams RWOers Hate the Most thread

    as I'm a new follower of the game I do not have a history of disliking a team, of course until now. I now have a dislike for Adelaide. Not sure if this is a positive thing but it felt good when they lost the other night. The dislike comes for how the club/players/fans treated Tippett. The Club had the final say on accepting the terms.

    And the same club that taunted the our players at the airport before the Final last year.

    In the interest of fairness, these two statements are untrue. Tippett wasn't a free agent, so Adelaide didn't have the option to meet the terms offered by Sydney - Tippett walked out on the offer from the Crows. Also, Adelaide FC had nothing to do with the choir at the airport - it was a radio prank, hence the choir needing a lyric sheet.

    Everyone develops clubs they hate for different and personal reasons.
    Usually it's Collingwood.

    I've only recently been able to get past Gary Lyon's comments after the Swans beat Melbourne maybe 20 years ago after we were winless for 20 rounds or so and he said "we played down to their level" or something like that when we clearly outclassed them on the day lol
    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

    I think it might be fun to have a seperate teams we hate and why thread! Or would the majority prefer to pad out this Tippett thread?
    Loose translation from the Latin is - I am tall, so I hit out.

    That sounds to me like a BF thread, I would like to think we (RWOer's) are better than that.

    In no particular order: North, West Coast, St Kilda, Carlton, Adelaide, Collingwood, Essendon, Hawthorn, Richmond, Brisbane, Port, GWS, Bulldogs, GC, Fremantle, and Geelong. Melbourne are too pathetic to hate.

    Actually, I don't mind Freo too much (purple is my favourite colour) but I do find something about Ross Lyon very irritating.

    It was always Carlton for me, but a combination of an obnoxious Eddie and Carlton becoming pathetic and a non-entity on the field swayed me to hate Collingwood the most over the past decade and a bit.

    Now that Mick is at Carlton and their fans are back to their 'We are Carlton so F U' worst, I've quicky gone back to the future and again the filthy Carlton are #1 enemy for me....

    Okay, I'll join in...
    North - for revelling in their big "come-from-behind" win back in August 2004 when Wally Jackson (RIP) passed away on the sidelines. And trying to become Sydney's second team.
    Weagles - Adam Hunter!
    Bummers - something about Hird just grates.
    Any team complaining about our C.O.L. allowance.

    I don't mind Freo, the Blions and the two new guys (yet).
    I would actually like to see GCS do well, as I just live a few hours down the coast, just not at the Swans expense.

    Collingwood - 3 reasons - Joffa, Eddie and my old man.

    Carlton - Ditto TripleB's post.

    St Kilda - Their stunning arrogance in the 05 PF stunned everyone that witnessed it. As I've learned this behaviour is normal for these people.

    North - I grew up a North supporter until I saw the error of my ways back in 1986. As a result I had a soft spot for them until they tried to poach Swans supporters in their ill fated foray North. Have disliked this irrelevant waste of space ever since.

    West Coast - Most arrogant and full of @@@@ Premiership side ever.

    This - Plus their incoherent rambling on their RWO equivalent (Saintsational) at the time. I always love going there after they lose. You can see the crap dribble from your screen.

    I hate no other team in the league, We need competition, otherwise there would not be a premiership. But I sincerely couldn't give a rodents rectum if St Kilda folded away to nothing more than a bad memory overnight.

    I must congratulate you on your restraint to still call them people though, Big Al. Mighty big of you. I wouldn't class them at our level - They are less than animals.

    (Next I might tell you what I really think).

    On the flip side ever since the Cats wore black arm bands for baby Luella I have admired that footy club. A class act if there ever was one.
