Bottom line is if you look at the scores or anything but a 'history' lesson, the Magpies don't exist.

Even if they weren't officially the Magpies, without another nickname/guernsey they still kind of would be. Like how Fremantle weren't officially the "Dockers" for like 10+ years.

when did that happen??

Wikipedia says 1997 to 2010. They were officially the Fremantle Football Club in that time thanks to Levi Strauss owning the term Dockers in regards to clothing. They sorted it out in 2010. You won't see "Fremantle Dockers" on anything official from that time period, even though everybody in conversation still called them that.

So Levi Strauss bought it after the dockers entered?

Anyone got any intel on us getting into the first round of the draft tonight. I know we 'Want' to, but wondering if anything a little more solid?

I never knew that. According to WIKIPEDIA:

The club and the AFL discontinued the official use of the "Dockers" nickname in 1997.

In October 2010, the strong association that members and fans have with the "Dockers" nickname led the club to form a new arrangement with Levi Strauss & Co which allows the club to officially use the nickname "Dockers" everywhere including on clothing and other brand elements.

This name change was made in conjunction with changes to the club logo and playing strip. Regained the name lost the anchor. Levi’s logo shown.

No they had it for quite a while, I think they likely just became aware of it on a large scale after a couple of years and put forth a bit of a "please explain".

I'm imagining a Strauss employee walking around Perth, seeing a DOCKERS jacket and having a "We don't make jackets in purple, red and green..." moment.

From the sounds of things Collingwood are going to bid on Max at their pick so technically that'll be a first rounder for us, as for trading into the 1st round.... Unless it's GWS and very late in the first round I doubt it very much

I prefer to call them "The filth" personally

 

[AFC979810]

If half the players gave as much as him the team would be much better. He gets 110% out of himself.

If he actually worked on his disposal a little he could def be elite.

You are praising him because he gets 110% out of himself, but at the same don't think he works on his disposal?

Can't be both.

 

[Jetafl]

At least the name is more reflective of how it was used.

 

[spenze]

They should call it the Testicle substitute as the rule is an absolute balls up

That would have worked well prior to the W league coming onboard.
