Should I (we) go to cheer the Swans over Collingwood?

[Primmy]

I don't believe we have introduced you to red nose day.....and the world record. Goodness me, you are getting a world class event you really are......next thing will be the kitchen sink!

Red clown noses are bought by the populace, raising funds for SIDS (research into sudden infant cot deaths), its an annual fund raiser, but this time the Swans have jumped on board, and are hoping to create a world record of people wearing red noses. Be warned. Join in if you wish,but its not compulsory.

Lessons
1. Scream "BALLLLLLLLLLL" as loud as you can when a Pie Player is tackled and keeps hold of the ball.
2. Scream "Maggot" when ever a free kick is paid to any pie player.
3. Groan loudly when a swan player misses a goal (You may get tired of this one quickly)
4. Enjoy the game. It's quite good. No matter the result.

just enjoy the experience - and pray that the Pies will have to find another way of getting up here so as they will be totally buggered upon arrival - road or rail prefereably and all squashed together.

tips for "Our American Cousin"

Sounds like it's a must go. Keep the good tips coming.

From the record, it sounds like scoring a lot is not much of a problem, like American pro basketball!

Is it true that there are about 40 bazzilion players out on the field at any given moment? Sounds like the old joke about going to a riot and a game broke out.

I'm flirting with whether or not to familiarize myself with the rules before the game/match or not. Not sure which is more entertaining.

Oh, and do I really have to eat a Vegemite sandwich?

You have a special dispensation on the Vegemite but you must try a Four & Twenty meat pie. You dont have to eat it all but don't even think of asking about the ingredients

Why does take an instant dilsike to Collingwood ?
Because it saves time!

In fact, these days most of us dont hate the Collingwood team who are an excellent unit with talented players . Their key Ruckman made his name playing for the Swans before he decided to return to Melbourne and was picked up by Colingwood.

It's the Collingwood supporters that everyone despises. They are obnoxious when they lose and even worse when they win.

Every umpires' decision agaisnt them is a monstrous conspiracy ; every point scored against them is a crime worthy of a blood feud . You know how Red Sox fans feel about Yankee fans? Well its the same here except every supporter from every club in the AFL abhors Collingwood fans.
Enjoy the game

Not my mob, but I have heard of some wankers drinking it.

Tastes like pisswater (can I say that here?)

The proper expression is "Ferret's Piss" but if you just say Budweiser eevryone will know what you mean

You will also notice that most of the Pies supporters are somewhat dentally challenged and the piano keyboard (minus the main keys) smile is a prerequisite for Pies membership. They also tried a timeshare scheme with the set of dentures but it didnt work, they came back each week with another tooth missing until they were just a set of gums.

And they dont sell Four & Twenty's out at Hombush - they are Villi's - and rug up - its only going to be 7 degrees on Saturday night!

Thats about 45 degrees for our US friends...... I always rug up for the Homebush games, but after a combination of a few beverages, some feral Pies supporters who always seem to be somewhere nearby, and the odd dodgy umpiring decision, I seem to heat up pretty well....

God how true is this statement????

Was at the Collingwood vs Bulldogs game a few weeks back with a friend(Collingwood supporter), we had this other feral Collingwood supporter sitting behind us commenting on the free's paid to the Dogs and the free's that weren't being paid to the pies. I swear, if the game was umpired the way he wanted it to be, at the end of the game, the free Kick count would have been something like Collingwood 100 frees for and 0 against.

By around th ehalf way point of the third quarter, my friend and I were just chuckling away at all the crap that was coming out of his mouth.

I must say, I feel for the 'sensible' Collingwood supporters out there...both of them, for the crap they have to put up with due to stupid supporters.

If they where truly sensible they would not be ****ingwood supporters

I have enjoyed the heck out of this thread, and have become in a very short time a Swans supporter, and quite possibly a pie dectractor. Getting on the plane tomorrow.

Special thanks to Jenny from the org, and we will see you dudes and dudettes there saturday night. We'll do all we can to pull the Swans to victory. We cannnot promise to stay longer if we win, sorry.

We have our warm threads (7 degrees is cold to anyone from Hawaii and Qatar), have red and white leis (Hawaiian style) and have been exercising our cheers, to wit:

Whatsamatteryou, Blind? you maggot!

BALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

You mother is a humpster and your father reeks of elderberry wine!

You toothless, clueless, shoeless, brainless fool!

You must be some sort of complete idiot!

Cheers! And a big Yankee thanks for the encouragement! Never met an Aussie I couldn't drink with.
