Eagles Insult

Postby SDK » Wed Oct 10, 2012 3:49 pm

Thought there would have been some comment by now but on TV last night Channel 2 ( I think ) commentator advised regarding the brewey clour unvieling :

Norwood have relaced the red white and blue that has been on the chimney for many years. Norwood supporter were overjoyed to see the red and blue replace the Centrals colours....... words to that effect.

Errrr excuse me but last years colours were blue gold and green !!!! Sure Eagles supporters would have been happy with that :oops:

To be fair Central colours have been on the Chimney EVERY year since 2000 either as premiers or runners up.

Who wouldve thought Centrals would have been born, endured winless seasons and 40 goal losses and won 9 flags all since Souths last flag.

The 10th team, whoever that may be will have their colours insult the chimney before South ever do again.
Go the West Coast Bluefins!!

Strangly enough, there was no mini-chimney with Woodville's colours and date. ;) At least DOC can find comfort that SA's colours have insulted the chimney more often than Woodville ;)

Central was competing at league level in the year that South won its last flag. So not born, but certainly still in nappies...

Looks orange on my camera screen JK. It is different to the Glg yellow. Can't remember what it looked like on the day. Didn't take much notice.
