Absolutely hilarious, best laugh I've had in ages, I especially like these ones:

There are plenty more I could put in, they are all good, it is a lot of effort, well done and Go Cats for back to back to back 07/08/09

Thank you for the comments. A lot of them may not have made sense to some people, glad to see that some did.

Geelong would be expecting to defeat Melbourne by 100 points at Kardinia Park, so it may not be a happy day for Demons supporters, but they should still go as it is a fun trip.

The Bulldogs deserve a game or two at the MCG, but against a team with more local fans than Brisbane have.
