Dick's always been a proud blue boy - Raheen always available for the blues to use.

Like you CB, i just noticed the Visy logo today. Could it have been there and just been changed?

Ha!

And just to think, I had a small project with Visy not that long ago.

Wore a Carlton tie one day, largely by mistake. 8) and wallah....!

I've got the midas touch, everything I touch turns to gold. :P

Oh and I am not kidding either.

Leonidas, youre avator (The statue)comes from where my parents are from ... :wink:
Youre not from Brunswick by any chance.. most Spartans in Melb are originally from that area (Brunswick Carlton Coburg)
Just about every Spartan is a Carlton supporter.

Fair enough too, the bronze bust of King Leonidas is synonymous with courage and a desire to remain free [from the strictures of the Filth and Bummers dominated AFL].

The battle of Thermopylae was always one of my favourite classical stories - I always thought of the Persians as a bunch of mindless Filth supporters :wink:

i think its due to the loss of exposure now that our home games are away from Optus were they do have alot of signage there.

The Visy logo has been on the site for well over a week, it could be even two.

It might even be three! :shock: :oops: :lol:

Anyway, I reckon ballistic's theory has some merit.
