It seems to be different in Sydney but, I can't fathom why Swans fans would ever be supportive of the Giants. The AFL wants a rivalry not a love-in, some Swans fans are even members of the Giants to help out. You don't see Giants fans be a member of the Swans. Sydney people are strange as ****!!!Ask West Coast fans, would you rather see Freo win a GF or someone else? I can tell you what 99% of Eagles fans would say.
GC/Brisbane fans would be the same (if GC had been competitive for a while and actually caused Brisbane some pain occasionally)
It's the same for Victorians.
I find that slightly insane, and i say this as GWS member since their inaugural year (i live in Sydney and hated the Swans and wanted to support AFL). GWS v Sydney is actually an intense rivalry as well. They've met four or five times in finals. Eagles and Freo haven't even played one final against each other.It seems to be different in Sydney but, I can't fathom why Swans fans would ever be supportive of the Giants.

As a Victorian Swans fan, I hate the Giants with a passion as I do with all Victorian teams for their treatment of my team since the relocation and not helping out etc... I don't understand some people, but maybe it's just me being old.I find that slightly insane, and i say this as GWS member since their inaugural year (i live in Sydney and hated the Swans and wanted to support AFL).

No.
I have, on occasion, preferred a Victorian side in a Grand Final or a final over a non-Victorian side, but only because I prefer the Victorian side over the non-Vic side for other reasons, never because they’re Victorian.
The whole idea that we get behind other Victorian sides in the finals or the grand final just because they’re Victorian is silly.
Every single supporter of a Vic-based side that I know could not and does not care that there isn’t a Victorian side in the GF this year.
