Membership Packs

I do!

But that does lead me to ask; Why is it always baseball caps?

I am neither American nor a member of a baseball team.

What's wrong with a beanie, or a bucket hat? Hell, I'd even go a beret to mix things up. Why always a baseball cap? FFS. Who in the Membership Dept has shares in the local baseball hat making factory?

Considering baseball caps are far more popular than bucket hats, beanies or any other form of headwear, it makes perfect sense to go with baseball caps.
I worked in the headwear industry for years, so I know what I'm talking about.

A Straw Boater with a red and white band would be the go.
Very "Old School" and pompous, fit right in with our Chardonnay sipping members!

Fridge magnets will arrive with the first edition of the Swans magazine due to hit mailboxes this week.

Hey Larissa,
My new fridge has a non magnetic surface. So do the Swans provide me with a magnetic fridge to go with the sticker

Dont know if that one is in the budget Roy!

Possible some double sided tape instead? Come see me at the Service Office!

I have a killer look in the baseball cap - die laughing - beanies start climbing up my head until they nod themselves off - buckets, only a bloke would even contemplate a bucket hat ......the only cap that looked any good is the 2004 one, and I will once again revert to that. As for the cap itself, cuts the glare from the night lights, and the sun from the stands. However, I am open to a fedora. With a feather.

What was it about the '04 cap that made it a winner Primmy?

Just went and tried them all on. Its actually slightly shallower than the others, so its sitting higher on the head and not clamping down over your forehead to your ears. Also the front stiffened section is softer, so it sits around your head - please note that this particular cap had the comfortable fit from the word go, the later ones are much stiffer and end up looking naff.

The peak is wider and flatter so it is more flattering - not duck looking. And I am not talking cms here, they are fairly minor dimensional differences. You would barely notice the difference en masse, but put them on, and there it is. All Puma too.

You would be surprised at the number of 2004 caps still being worn to the games. I mean, really and truly. Also it is all red. That looks so much better on mass than the white and red, or red and white ones. Much more "Tribal Us" against "them" look.

I can bring in my selection to show you what I mean one day if you want; I front the Wednesday markets on a semi regular basis.

The 2005 is pretty special though.....I make sure I wear it to away games!

Got the Fridge Magnet, although I notice that it has the original draw and not the change in time for the Rd3 game v Richmond. I guess the lead time on magnet production is quite long considering the change to the draw was made a while ago...

Swan's fedoras I say. Or Borsalinos. That'd make the other teams sit up and pay attention.

I'd even wear a Swans Panama with pride.

What about a Red Fez with a White tassle?? now thats tasteful without being gaudy! this to be worn to the blockbuster matches and Finals series (its a special occassion hat) -and a red & white bucket hat for the other games. mix it up a bit!!!
