    McVeigh - what an insult !

    How pathetic that the club could not find a photo of McVeigh showing his face on the membership ticket.

    What idiot chose that photo of his back ??

    That's assuming it IS McVeigh - because you can see only half of the number.
    And it does not even state the name of the Club Champion.

    Incredible !

      I thought that a bit odd as well.
      Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

          Yes, I agree. I've never been a fan but he was sensational last season and deserved the B & F. I think it's very insulting to not have a clear photo of him on the card.

              Does it show his bald patch?

                  How is it insulting? It's just meant to be a little artistic. Whether they succeeded in making it artistic or not is another point entirely, but it's hardly an insult.

                          Half of his bald patch.

                          It's like they just snipped the photo that was on the m/ship renewal in half.

                                      I like it - i think it looks really good but can understand the point about his face not being shown although i really like the image of his back with his arm up!!

                                          Me too....I like arty farty. My daughters portraits that she does (honoursVCA painting) don't show the whole face but they still display the character of the person..usually through a gesture. McVeigh's gesture is great in this photo as it shows triumph but also shows a tinge of exhaustion as if he has tried his damnest and got there. Just my interpretation.

                                              They could have at least put "McHack 2008 Club Champion" on it like they did for Kirky last year.

                                              If you didn't know better, you could say the "3" was an "8".

                                                      Not it shouldn't ... it should be the club champion of the year before - McVeigh!!

                                                          It's just from the membership renewal prospectus!

                                                          I actually think it's a great shot - though I also would have gone and sourced another photo for the membership card!! They have all been action shots back as far as I can remember, with the players' name printed

                                                          177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....
