Pull into the local drive through this afternoon.Look at the specials(never really mean it,always get the pale and the West End sign--
" Collectors edition SANFL stubbie holder with every carton purchased--
------------ all 8 to collect ---------------"
WTF? No Redlegs!
Surely as a major(?) SANFL sponsor,they must support all clubs in the league.Just because Norwood have Coopers on board is no reason to not include them.
If it was a matter of the Coopers logo on the guernsey replication,leave it off.
Tough luck Redleggers,you miss out.(Kind of like 1984 to 1997)

It would be because of the Coopers sponsorship. Which isn't so unfair I would have thought. I can't understand why the SANFL doesn't take a tougher stance with Norwood anyway and prevent them form gaining sponsorship form Coopers in the first place considering the SABC is a major sponsor of the league.
Anyway I've alaways said the WEST END of the day is the BEST END of the day.

Always amazes me how people get so worked up over beer. If you don't like the taste fine but does that mean it's crap? I don't like the taste of prawns but i don't think they are crap or that people who eat them are stupid.

It's not the AFL mate, I don't reckon in todays SANFL any club can afford to knock back a well-meaning sponsor. The SANFL obviously acknowledge this by not protesting the Coopers sponsorship of Norwood. Good work by all concerned.
If I were Mr Cooper, I would be releasing a Norwood stubby holder that puts the West End ones to shame.

No thanks. But WE does go OK with footy so (if you can help yourself) save them until Round 16 and then you can hand them out at Unley.
