Hawks likely to win 2-3 in the next 10 years.This Hawthorn team hasn't won anything yet..
Likely?Hawks likely to win 2-3 in the next 10 years.
??Likely?
Likely?
This is just wrong, painfully incorrect. Most tiger fans I know and of course myself included love the cats, our favourite memories all involve the cats. In fact 3 of my favourite ever games are Geelong games.Because they have massive Tall Poppy Syndrome. Seeing Geelong lose is genuinely more exciting for them than their own teams winning. Pretty sad really but it’s reality.
For most of the people on BigFooty, Geelong playing Finals is ALL they have known.
Some even grew up never seeing Geelong miss a Final or only missing it twice/three times in 2006 then again in 2015 and finally 2023.
That’s a long, long, LONG time to have a team constantly being in Finals, constantly causing heartache for opposition fans.
So that’s gotta stick right into their collective minds.
Then when they hope, pray, or wish every year that the Cats FINALLY fall off (go look at where all the “experts” had Cats finishing this year, it wasn’t in the top 8 let alone top 4 lol)
Cats then pull guys like Rising Star Dempsey from the Rookie Draft or Lawson Humphries from the complete back ass end of the Draft and regenerate and the run continues on. From Geelong’s Prelim side, 75% weren’t taken in the first round.
That’s freaking insane development and talent scouting (Stephen Wells is a genius)
That’s gotta piss you off when clubs take guys 1st round and they massively underperform to expectations.
Add to the fact Cats players routinely take way less to stay and play with the lifestyle over clubs where they throw the WARCHEST at middle tier guys and stay stuck in perpetual mediocrity. It’s gotta do things to you as a fan. I know watching my NFL, NBA teams be perpetually mediocre it irks the **** out of you watching a great organisation continue to be great.
Just watch the absolute shrieking if we get Smith for perceived “unders”
BigFooty and pretty much all AFL related social media will be toxic as hell.
As for Tiggies fans that constantly invade threads about Geelong, create threads discussing Geelong or try to put the mozz on them every year in their threads, idk what to really say about them?
It’s like a weird complex where they think we are really close rivals or arch enemies or something?
That Cats fans actually care about Richmond lol
Not even top 3 on the list of biggest Cats rivals, it’s like Main Character Syndrome.
Genuinely cooker level conspiracy theories going on over there, they legit have threads over there where they believe the League is helping Geelong and holding back “battler” clubs like Richmond.
Eg. Geelong Mafia, CFL (Corrupt Football League), sHoCkiNg (Steven Hocking)
Tinfoil hat time
If the League was actually corrupt, we wouldn’t have a Lionsthis is painfully vs Swans Grand Final coming up.
The AFL would want some combination of Pies, Blues, Dons, Tigers in it every single year as it’d make them the most money.
But you can’t help people who are that far down the rabbit hole.
Appreciate the kind words <3

The birds are chirping a little louder this morning and the sun seems just a bit warmerTiger supporters up and about, waving their spoons at us.
Cheers, I’m 60, I was in the cheers squad early 80’s, I remember when you guys sucked! I also remember going to a non Collingwood game because you guys were in for a real battle game, can’t remember against who, but I just wanted to see Gary Ablett senior smash them! It was worth it!Because they have massive Tall Poppy Syndrome. Seeing Geelong lose is genuinely more exciting for them than their own teams winning. Pretty sad really but it’s reality.

The birds are chirping a little louder this morning and the sun seems just a bit warmer
Absolute bottom line is that Geelong choked .... nearly 5 goals up ... Brions with no ruck
It was a flat out choke
Let's not sugar coat it
Lohman of all players marks that. Geelong are done
You weren’t sighted on game day thread or in lead up on BF. Yet once you were sure Brisbane had won you couldn’t wait to rush on here to gloat and rub it in to Cat’s supporters. Piss poor.Yeah read the comments in the build up and talk about being gracious
They have 7 of those. Could very well be 9 in two more seasons.Tiger supporters up and about, waving their spoons at us.
Roll the leg over last night?The birds are chirping a little louder this morning and the sun seems just a bit warmer
That’s only reserved for tiger premierships unfortunately lolRoll the leg over last night?
Rack off mate- I was doing this thing, you watch the game without a phone in your hand. Had Geelong supporters chirping in the build up and if you want to do that expect it back. What’s piss poor is a Collingwood loser coming on here telling people how to act. Go back to your thread and talk about how good a bloke Eddie is how ‘fly’ couldn’t coach his team back to finals.You weren’t sighted on game day thread or in lead up on BF. Yet once you were sure Brisbane had won you couldn’t wait to rush on here to gloat and rub it in to Cat’s supporters. Piss poor.
Might wanna look at build up again ya goose.You weren’t sighted on game day thread or in lead up on BF. Yet once you were sure Brisbane had won you couldn’t wait to rush on here to gloat and rub it in to Cat’s supporters. Piss poor.
The old double reply. You won. Easy tigerMight wanna look at build up again ya goose.
Never hurts to be gracious in victory.
lol I just swapped my allegiance for next week from Brisbane to Sydney. That was easy.
Hahahahah
You choose to play your home game against big clubs at the MCG.
And now you want to sook about it.
Get over it.
