was actually a quote from some geelong supporters the day we beat them at metricon. funny s**t, they were real good about it. that's why aussies don't separate fans. we respect our passions....so far.

Unfortunately some of our supporters say it seriously, Browny was bad for it too. >_>

we had a mob of about 15-20 Geelong blokes behind us. I got the impression from their age and dress they may have known GAJ pretty well. They took the piss out of GAJ at every opportunity, especially when close to us, but in the nicest way. I was half expecting a wave from him towards them, but GAJ is a pro,.....still I think there was some sort of relationship there...

Which explains why they are sitting at a Footy game...
Geelong flogs are the new Collingwood flogs.

Found that out first hand this year... Cringe. Personally never had anything bad to say about Collingwood fans from my own personal experience at games I've been to - compared with other clubs anyway. Geelong fans though - wow.
Whereas Geelong isn't a place you go to at all. Its a place you end up in.

I would run the risk in to Geelong any day of the week.
They have the best souvlakis (Kadinia Cafe) and best Pizzas (Pizzas with attitude) in Australia
Both edacious delights make the constant stabbings worth it!

It's the off season so I figured it would be fun to conduct a Gold Coast quiz. It will be a combination of Gold Coast footy related questions and questions about the city to test your knowledge. Now obviously you could cheat by looking these up or reading someone else's answers below but I think it would be fun to try it for real. Let's see how much you know about the city/Suns and perhaps someone else could come up with a part 2 quiz.
- Who is Meatballs?
- What happens when a Suns player kicks a goal at Metricon?
- Who holds the games record for the Suns?
- What is located under the big screen at Metricon?
- Who is TARGETMAN?
- What is the Sharks?
- Who is Princey?
- What is Cooly Rocks?
- What would I see if I was standing at the top of Burleigh Hill?
- What is the G?
- What is Broady?
- What is Twinnies?
- What is Cavill?
- What is Snapper?
- What is Tweed Breed?
- What is Draculas?
- Why would I go to the peak of Mount Warning early in the day?
- What is Hedges?
- What is Justin Lane?
- What is Magic Mountain?

Good effort for a guy from the northern suburbs. Upon reflection I have noticed my GC quiz was fairly south centric. Care to come up with a GC quiz of your own that is more north centric?1. prestia?

question 21
21. where was auto chick.

This thread seems like as good as any for me to dump all the songs I have written about the Gold Coast, to be sung at games by either me or the cheer squad. My two completed songs will be in a later post, because I want to share with you guys the project that has consumed my Australia Day.
Does anyone know the Fire Emblem theme? It's a latin opera-orchestral piece for the Fire Emblem series. The original song is here:
My aim is to make a Gold Coast song out of this. It has not been an easy process. I've spent the last several hours working on it. Even though it will be sung in English, the syllables and such need to match perfectly or it will sound off. This is made harder by the fact that the choir is bad at pronouncing latin, and mumbles through a lot of words. This means that a line could appear to have 10 syllables, but realistically has 8 syllables because a two of the words were reduced to single-syllable mumbles. For example, ad ahmast reduced to adst.
It is not finished, I am making progress. The latin lyrics are in blue and the lyrics I would be singing are in black. If you sing along with some very specific pronunciation and timing that is hard to relay over text, it matches up quite well.
