    :/ Weirdly emotional question to ask in the Gaa forum.

    Hmm. Im from Kerry so i'd tell you to support Kerry. But if you've been supporting the Dubs all along why change? Sure, you'll get a bit of slagging on the Monday if Kerry win, but it'll all be good banter.

    Was born in Australia myself only lived there 3-4 years. Can't remember it at all. But I have some attachment to the place and whenever they play, be it Rugby, Soccer even International Rules I support the Aussies first. I'll be quietly cheering the Aussies on Saturday morning, but wont be terribly disappointed if Ireland pull off a shock.

    Its not a bad situation to be in to be honest, but I'd recommend you stick with your guns and follow the team you've followed all along, even when it doesn't make sense.

    p.s Any Spare Ticket for the Match ;) (Should get this made as my Signature!)
