    Like Beer? Like the Swans?

    A HARD-earned thirst needs a big cold beer -- and Carlton Draught have decided that new premiers the Sydney Swans have earned their very own can.

    I know Barry Round is multi-talented, but I think that even he would have a job enjoying a nice cold beer from a horizontal can that isnt open.



    But put me down for a couple of slabs...they'll be worth a fortune in 72 years.

      Can't belive how BIG THAT IS...

      I will start cruising the drive-ins of Sydney on my way this afternoon...what a minute...I do that everyday

        He put a hole in the side with a nail.

        The picture on the can has the kids edited out or is there a team photo without them?

          And they've cropped Schneid's crotch shot, too. You can't trust images anymore. The camera doesn't lie but Photoshop can barely tell the truth!

            The pic posted is different to the can pic - note that Schenider isnt kissing the cup on the can.

            What is it with Roos kids being everywhere that day? I noticed one of them even tried to grab the cup as the players set off around the MCG with it but the player holding the cup either didnt notice or ignored him.

              Yeah it's different, but only by a few seconds and a slightly different angle.

                  And, for the can shot, does Magic still have his finger up Nog's nose?

                  Can someone let us know where they find these cans for sale (and the best way to store beer so it lasts for, say, 72 years)?

                    As if I needed another reason to drink the stuff.

                    Will be picking up a slab shortly

                      Drink the beer, then store the empty cans!!

                        Sank my first one straight after the parade. Man, it was sweet!

                          I find that picture rather annoying as Schneider managed to orchestrate centre place for himself with the cup.
                          Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

                            I'm sure Kirk and Fossy aren't exactly in love with it either.

                              Just part of Roos' attention to detail. Like a school photo he told the two hobbits they had to sit at the front so the view wasn't obscured. If we'd had Bally and Jolly there, you wouldn't see any of the others behind them.

                              I love the look of pure joy by Willo and Jude. LRT looks like he thinks it is a school photo - and he has to sit alongside the ugly exchange student.
