This week AnUltimateRessie has created a media thread celebrating Wonders Hall of Famer SSwans2011's 400th game. If you missed that thread, please check it out and feel free to offer your congratulations...
Sorry Ticky, I'm going to deliver this thread earlier than expected, but in return I will be taking a lot of creative liberty with the "within reason" part of your invitation to create this thread.
Hello. I'd like to dedicate this thread to a friend of mine that has gone missing. I speak of...
This isn't a troll thread. Since the Australian team got rid of Langer, we have won an away Test series (didn't happen under Langer), and drawn another (happened once against a shithouse England team under Langer - we haven't managed this in the subcontinent in over a decade).
Yet, one loss in...
RIP. One of the best Australian singers ever, such emotional depth in his vocals, and obviously a fantastic songwriter.
One that I will (and already do) regret not seeing live.

I've been researching this a bit over the last few days, while stuck inside with the Brisbane floods, as Russia invades Ukraine. Hoping to maybe make some mixes, or do some journalism on it. Not that it makes much difference, but hopefully exposure can serve as a means of cultural preservation...
Not yet.
I'll be following this closely, so stay tuned for updates. Make sure you subscribe to this thread to be one of the first to know when they are up!
'Niche' feels like a wank term, but I'd been wanting to start a thread like this for ages. Feels like a good way to introduce people to entire, potentially untapped, areas of music that we might never have come across.
Over the past few years, I've been increasingly getting into styles of music...
Hi guys, it’s SSwans2011 here, and I wanted to let you all know that I am embarking on a new and exciting journey in my career.
Everyone, I am starting a new media series. This is something I have never done before, and it’s very big and exciting for me and my career. I hope you will all be...
It’s season 20 again, baby. The world isn’t in lockdown, a 30+ page match thread is considered spammy, and we’re all counting down till the turn of the century… or something like that.
The Wonders need posters, and your humble narrator knows just the man to approach. I’d seen haydo's work on...
At many times throughout the last few weeks, I have been left feeling despondent at the reactions (or lack thereof) that my posts have received. This troubles me for a couple of reasons. It means that my reaction score is not reflective of the quality of my posting (which is very high quality)...
Now there's no obvious answer to this question, but quietly observing the Bombers and their complaints/conspiracies regarding the legitimacy of the league and suggestions of an off-shoot bush league made my brain department busy.
The qooty application is available to all of us and we have a...
Hello, friends. I don't consider myself to be a hero. Not even a vigilante that is taking justice into his own hands. I'm just a man that sees something deeply concerning happening in our wonderful league that concerns me deeply, and I wanted to air those concerns. Please, if you will indulge...
Brilliant report. I went into this expecting a heap of information I was already aware of, but this is a deeply informative, disturbing, and interesting summary of the conflict. Summarily, successive United States governments have made it part of their strategy to mislead the public into...
Introduction
Shit posting is a problem that has caused the Sweet FA community headaches for several seasons now. It has existed since the league’s inception, and on a wider societal scale, since well before it; however, with a continual steady growth on traffic onto the board, it becomes more...
It was an Easter miracle. Proof that dreams really do come true. The Wonders and Furies were putting on an absolute clinic, and spookism was stretching it out like the campaigner he is. I saw this as an opportunity to tag one of my favourites from back in the day:
As already established, RU_ was not...
League legend, renowned dickhead, and all-round good bloke SSwans2011 is playing his 150th game this week, and he has achieved quite a lot in that 150-game career, such as that one time he made the All-SFA team. Naturally, such a monumental occasion needed to be the subject of a media thread...
The S24 Grand Final seems almost too good to be true. The culmination of a two-season, almost full year storyline somehow perfectly manifests itself with the Bombers and the Hawks set to play off. Well, as this game-changing piece of journalism is about to show you; that is because it IS too...
Well, I was going to let someone else start the thread, but I found this gem of an album that I wanted to share. I enjoy listening to dream pop/jangle pop on shuffle, but outside of a select few albums (namely Long Season by Fishmans, which is one of my all-time favourite albums), I often lose...
An article about SSwans2011 by SSwans2011
Inspirational leader, renowned dickhead and all-round quality bloke, SSwans2011 has announced his decision to stand down as co-captain of the Wonders. The leadership group were well aware that this season would be a transitional one for the Wonders, as...
PICTURED: The cause of great controversy at the Wonders
Kanye West has this week illustrated his support for the West Coast Wonders, releasing album, The Life of Haydo late, in what can only be assumed is him agreeing with the Wonders' hegemony over the Sweet FA, and suggesting they should not...
It's Not Only Our Fault That We're Great. It's Also Yours.
written by: probably not a Wonders poster
The players of the Sweet FA community stood as a crowd, ready to be addressed by the non-Wonders player that had decided to front the media. The many non-Wonders players of the Sweet FA stood...
vs.
20th Season Foundation Cup Mini Tournament
For the recent history of the Sweet FA, there have been two clubs that have remained strong in the belief that they are of greater importance than any other club in the Sweet FA, and thus they feel they should be excused from adhering to rules...
No preview.
Monday (11th of January) - The first Wonders and Demons teams to ever be fielded face off (or closest you can find).
Thursday (14th of January) - The all-time best Wonders and Demons line-ups face off.
Sunday (17th of January) - The current line-ups face off.
Winner gets sweet ****...
I didn't want to let 2015 go, because it was such a good year for music. I have some stuff to share though, which I will put in my next post.
What albums are everyone looking forward to this year? In no order, I'm keen to give the following a listen:
DIIV - Is this Is Are (February 5th)
Kanye...
This weekend sees the Wonders and the Demons face off in the Foundation Cup. With the last two Foundation teams facing off in their twentieth seasons, the clubs have dubbed the biggest Home & Away clash of all time. It has already been confirmed that as part of this contest, ClarkeM will line-up...
