[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

no team, I'm not really paying attention

[–] Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm only pretending to be interested so I'm not found out

gf say is always a good day to go shopping or do errands as the streets are empty.

srsly, I do like footy, I think it's terrific fun but the folks at home are rabid and not fun about it at all.

for me, at work, getting my good old saturday pay, a significant pay cut compared with yesterday’s

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Me too. We should petition for today to be a public holiday too!

[–] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah, tell me who's playing and I'll pick a team to back based on vibes

I'm watching for the entertainment. Whether it's good or bad I'm always entertained regardless. I've heard Tina Arena will perform a song or two with Katy Perry and I want to see that.

😂

What's worse than Katy Perry?

A duet with Tina Arena.

I think Sydney, but I'll have to see when it starts. It's weird when it's two interstate teams.

[–] imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Lions. Gotta love an underdog

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Tough one. I don’t know who I’d like to see win today.

Maybe Sydney?

[–] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

Brisbane. I don’t think they will, but it would be fun if they did

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

I just found out who is playing. Guess I’ll find out the result by how noisy it gets later on.

I'm not a sports person but I'm going to a social thing for the game. Gonna just support the team that currently has the ball
