Still Simply the Best

sook ;-)

shhhh!

i never ever cry unless its footy related. or on ANZAC Day. then im a shocker.

does anyone remember when Barnsey descended from a helicopter and sang working class man at the 2001 grand final?? i was there and almost peed myself from joy/excitement.

also u know whats great about those retro ads? the footy players had actual body hair. i hate how they all wax it off now.

Seriously whats the deal with guys waxing these days. I've noticed it in my footy teams. Freaky. I don't get it. Does it impress chicks? :crazy:

 

[Dutchy]

They are trying to impress you kungl.

 

[Kiki]

it might impress some chicks, but definitely not us. it makes me feel a bit sick actually. no man should be hairless, its just not right. i dont want a man who is more consistent with his waxing than me, it creeps me out.

i like a good rug. and a mo! bring them back!

u know whats even worse?? in those naked for a cause pics and what not the guys have trimmed their pubes into neat little squares. HORRIFYING.

 

[sass]

oh my god no don't blame the women!

there is nothing I hate more than a waxed man.

everyone in league is like a hairless cat these days. it hurts me in the vajayjay.

A well..I'm a hairy legged leaguey if you'd prefer that :lol:

 

[Kiki]

go team body hair!

ah manscaping. it is so unsexy. if i was the head of the NRL i would outlaw it.

I know right?

david gallop is obsessed with afl when there are important things to do, like bringing back chest hair and moustaches and retro headbands.

In the Centennary ad, the bit where I come closest to losing it is when Turvey is on his knees in the mud pumping his fists and then other recent Blues players slap him on the back. That pretty much sums up what is means to represent NSW.

Think of the effects of these promos. What does the viewer get from it, what message?

"Rugby League is simply the best"

A pretty powerful message that seems lost on our current administrators. If we pumped that all the time in VIC and particularly SA and WA (and teams there) along with plenty of prime time coverage of games we'd be set within 10 years.

And I think it's fair to say it's the one thing the AFL haven't done yet, come up with a winning campaign to push their game. They've done everything else right.

We had had the magic formula ffs, and we threw it (and all the other important pieces) away!!!
