I'm going to follow Tranquility's logic and follow anybody playing the Waratahs because, fuck the Waratahs. That's why!

Just kidding. Go Waratahs.
We need an emoticon that looks like a pear to sketch out how this thread WILL go.
Better?

I'm going with the Tahs, because this year they've started to play the kind of footy I most like to watch.

My Super Rugby season finished at the very moment of the final whistle during the Rebels v Bulls game.
Do Collingwood supporters get behind Carlton in the finals if they are not playing? Do Bronco's supporters get behind Manly?
No, they do not. And forget this "it's for the good of Oz rugby" bullshit. My team is out, your team is in. That's the ballgame right there.
Good luck to the Tahs and the Brumbies, but to paraphrase Rhett Butler, frankly my dear, I don't give a fuck.

It goes beyond state tribalism for me Daz. It's an international competition and I want to see an Aussie team win. The difference with the AFL and NRL is that they are pissweak provincial leagues that nobody in the world gives a fuck about (and I say this as a rabid Carlton fan).

You think Liverpool supporters get behind Man Utd in the Champions league?
No, for me, regardless of the international flavour of the S15, it is still just another footy competition. If I'm not in the finals, it's season over.
And my team finished dead fucking last, so I'm sulking!

I don't understand the 3 nations idea when it comes to supporting S15 teams. It's 15 teams representing 15 different provinces. I've been raised on a long running rivalry of QLD vs NSW: us vs them. So I will always find it hard to support them as they have always been the traditional enemy since before I can remember. Saying that though, I'm loving the rugby they are playing and would be happy for them to win. Just not sure I can ride the bandwagon with them.
I generally list my second S15 team as the Highlanders. Love the way they go about what they do and have a fondness for the Otago region. If it's the Tahs v Highlanders in the GF I will be conflicted because I naturally have a greater affinity toward Australian provinces than I do to some international ones but Otago will test that.
I'll be pretty content as long as the Sharks or the Crusaders don't end up in the big one. Go everyone else!
