    I know their is some interest in Aussie rules football in the USA and other places ,( please inform me where else) they the AFL are trying to extend their influence throughout the world . So I`m just curious who on this board are interested in following this football code .

    This weekend is the battle of the " BIRDS" : Sydney SWANS vs. Collingwood MAGPIES and wait for it, the Hawthorn HAWKS vs the Adelaide CROWS

    I`m just curious to know what, if any, interest is shown to this truly Australian sport, is embraced by any nation other than ourselves.

    Im an Adelaide girl living in Queensland, GO THE CROWS!!!! Is it weird to have backup teams cause I have the Brisbane Lions at no2 spot and Port Adelaide at no3. Maybe just maximising my chances of backing a winner?

    I loved that winning streak the Crows had winning all them grand finals a decade or so ago!!

    Yep a good weekend ahead.

    Do you barrack for an AFL team Smiddy? Or do you follow the NRL like most other Qlders?

    I know what you mean jemba about having a backup team,I`m a carlton supporter and while living in Qld.I went to a lot of BL games and had a soft spot for them and so did my wife.

    No I cant stand NRL .Good luck to you with the crows,though I cant see them beating the hawks.
