One good friend of mine is a hard core Collingwood supporter. Another good friend of mine passionately supports Brisbane. Both want me on their side today. Today’s Grand Final will be…something I have to carefully negotiate. Help!

Claim to be an Essendon supporter - rusted on. Both friends will then realise that you cannot be swayed and will cease their efforts to recruit you. If meeting up, take a scarf with you to whirl around whatever the result is.

Essendon supporter here. I am rooting for the Pies (because Victoria), but it hurts my heart lol

Would like to support Brisbane but difficult as they are not Victorian (although they once were Fitzroy). Tried to support Collingwood but can’t because…you know…they’re Collingwood. Think you have to be born a Collingwood supporter to support them. This day will not end well for me.
