There's not really anyone for me to follow during this final series. I guess the closest would be Brisbane: underdog, non-Victorian, no recent premierships. Fortunately, at least for the next 2 weeks, Port are in the SANFL finals (playing the Crows on Saturday) - prison bars take pride of place!

Eh, Collingwood's close enough to the PB's.
Plus we can get revenge for you on Geelong?

 

[Sparkle]

Once we crash out (so by this time in two weeks probably) I'll be on the Brisbane bandwagon. They're young and exciting to watch and just a cool team to get behind

Was thinking about this just the other day - what, in your opinion, was the most aesthetically pleasing grand final jumper matchup you can remember?
For me might have to be 2016 Sydney vs Bulldogs, the contrast amongst the players and the crowd was brilliant. Just a great spectacle overall.

2005 and 2006. West Coast v Sydney.

I really liked last years matchup. The black against the royal blue was so crisp.

Well, I had an obvious soft spot for Collingwood in the VFL days whenever I bothered to take notice of it, but as soon as we got into the AFL no way. Nice pitch though caloschwaby

So I played some footy trivia with the family, mother-in-law was convinced Adelaide's colours were red, yellow and black. Is navy getting too dark?

This is a classic Vic thing, remember going to footy day at primary school and having my teacher tried to tell me these were the crows colours. The school nurse/librarian thought the same thing when I got jelly beans in sick bay one time (you'd get one of each of your footy team's colours while you waited for your mum to pick you up) didn't correct her though because black jelly beans are the best ones.

Get out.

 

[fancyscum]

If this is the unrefined palette club, then I might just.

As a confectioner, I believe I can safely say...no, just no.

People who think black jelly beans suck are uneducated plebs

 

[caloschwaby]

Pineapple-flavoured Haribo gummy bears are so underrated that it's criminal.

Orange creams are the 2nd-best bikkie behind monte carlo's

 

[Spanna_]

The early 90's crows jumpers looked close to black, even the Carlton ones around that era were pretty dark looking. Certainly was deceptive to my young eyes.

on my scale orange creams are above Monte Carlos. Works well for me: the rest of the family tend to leave the orange creams to last.

Delta cream as a D? No way, easily an A with the shortbread cream in the S spot.

Delta creams are just a shit oreo. Shortbreads probably should be in the S spot but I didn't want to have 2 empty tiers, easily the most underrated in the assorted creams set.
