    No need for anyone to provide an answer to that. Play the ball not the man people and keep it amicable. That is all.

    I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

    If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

      For all i know it could be some expat league. And if it was..why didn't the afl provide them with a style guide and proper logos? As it stand the one they used is crap and breaches the style guides.
      No i'm pretty sure we're a sponsor of theirs or they're affiliated with us. I remember reading up on that last year.

            Do we have a licencing agreement with the Canadian government for using their colours??

            I mean we may have just had our best year ever financially but we may lose the lot in a court action...

              The first post was something of a joke. I said they are AFL Canada, meaning, as you implied, they are no doubt a two bit operation on a small budget putting together cheap looking websites with ill-designed logos, layouts etc. It was sort of sarcastic you know (perhaps not, nevermind). Note also the above reference to Nog (my screen is very dark, I cannot tell if it is him or not) - I was suggesting something similar, that they are ripping off the Swans/AFL etc. The second post was a bit of a go at you becuase rather than giving something the benefit of the doubt you flew straight in and had a dig. Not that I care. The reference to AFL ACT was a stir, and also a comment on the dodgey site that they run.

              To answer you question, how the @@@@ would I know if they have an agreement with the AFL and why the @@@@ would I care? And for your information, if they don't have an agreement and they have used the logos and images without permission they will have breached trade mark laws rather than copyright. As the site owners are likely outside of Australia, the AFL would have bugger all chance of bringing a succesful action anyway, unless they have registered their trade marks there. Given the size of the football market in Canada I expect that they have not, and even if they have the cost of flying a lawyer to Canada would probably exceed the damages they would be entitled to, as I think it would be difficult to show any material loss. So, your original post was pretty stupid (or obviously designed to bait others). What is it then, are you a troll or just a dumb-arse?
              Mate theres no need for sarcastic replies, thats trolling. And now i am here I'll make sure your stupid sarcastic comments are exposed as bait.

              And you're method of sarcasm sucks, you need to work on that.

              And i see you have to resort to petty insults, what happened? you can't handle that I am now back on board and won't take any of your crap? I won't insult but i will be giving you hard time over any stupidity you post and i will be doing it in a mature manner.

              It's going to be a long season ROK.

                Oh, and you asked me to answer your question, so I di, but I notice that that is no longer a topic for discussion. You weren't just looking for a reaction were you?

                The "sort of sarcasm" was directed at the AFL Canada site, not you. I was not trying to bait anyone. I can handle the fact that you are on the boards. As for being back, I had never noticed you before. You say you wont insult but started this rubbish by using the name "troll boy". If you were prepared to act in a mature manner you would report problems to the mods and not play it out on the boards. If you are going to stalk me this season it will indeed by a long one, but hey, if that's what gets your rocks off...

                  WTF?

                  Are you being serious? Lets hope they have permission from the AFL to use our logo.
