Wednesday, August 6, 2014: That's entertainment

Well, well, well. After we went out of our way to give those ungrateful sheep-jumpers a taste of the big time, an actual AFL game between two actual AFL teams. After we went to all the effort of getting passports and legal clearance for St. Kilda players to leave the country - which is not an insignificant task given their recent history - finding goalposts and footballs and all the other detritus. After all of that, they come down and whack our footballers with a tax bill for providing entertainment.

We've got something worked out for the bro's across the water. Next year, we're sending Fremantle to play Melbourne. With the teams unlikely to manage 5 goals between them, let's see them call that entertainment.

In the news...
The Giants are pleased with the response of Toby Greene after his six week ban for punching strangers. "I feel like we got it right" said Callan Ward.

Jason Winderlich has announced that 2014 will be his last season. "I'm certainly going to miss the banter around the club" he said, which presumably means he enjoys conversations about what exactly was in that needle.

Dane Swan may return for Collingwood's trip to Perth to face the Eagles. Swan hasn't played since the Pies round-17 drubbing by Essendon.
