However, I was very impressed with the portrayal of the CFC emblem.
Actually, the CFC logo was pretty cool, I agree.

I was in LA once sitting on the tarmac and one of the Indigenous painted Qantas planes roller past. A couple of middle Amercian norbits looked out the window and stated "What is with that plane, it looks like it was painted by a two year old!"
I leaned across and quietly let them know it was based on Indigenous art that has been around as cave paintings for 40000 years, long before Christians existed!
One of them corrected me, told me it cannot be true because the earth is only 6500 years old, what more could I say, God Bless America! :o

As you were at the airport, can I assume those norbits actually had a passport, since that might be a good start.

That was the first time this year he's missed from a set shot. I thought the player on the mark put him off by running hard at the mark as he was about to kick. Something you don't see often.

Just watched the highlight s on the AFL site and you'd have to wonder if it was put together by a Swans fan, 90% of it was all Swans stuff. Pathetic.
Also when we start winning I want our players to give as much cr*p back to oppo teams, for sooo long they have kicked us when we were down, laughed at us and basically have no respect for the club.
That day is coming, but I wish it would come sooner. >
2024... Moir of the same to come

The Swans are pretty clean and benevolent compared to a lot of other teams. Buddy likes to gob off constantly, but other than that.............

Actually I was on a domestic leg from LA to Tuscon at the time.

I'd arrived in LA on the red one, which I thought looked terrific. It was the blue one taxing at LA that the locals commented on.
I suppose they are expensive to fly and decorate but you'd think Tourism Australia would sponsor them. I read somewhere it requires an extra 500kg of paint which adds to fuel costs.

Totally agree. Well done CFC.
