Good call.  Mention Green Street and half the Melbourne fan base will try it next home game.

This whole thread is tongue in cheek. 

The last thing we need is the media reading light hearted banter like this and considers it is gospel (like they did with the Beckham Chants thread).



classic

what a job you have HN , explaining this rabble to the media

but what a happy rabble we are

Actually, in the medias defence, the local guys seem to have a good grasp on what is genuine and where the line is on here. 

My concern is more someone from outside Wellington building it in to something it's not.

Try burning a stars and stripes and see what happens to ya.  The yanks lack a sense of humour on that one.

Majorly annoyed with Marcus Lush dissing the Phoenix on RadioLive the other morning.  He just wouldn't stop bagging the Phoenix.
May be not an effigy burning, but an effigy with a giant gerkin stuck somewhere painful.

Isn't it illegal to burn flags here, or is that just the NZ one?

What about a bonfire of ticket stubs, to show our annoyance at the obscenely pathetic farce that is  Ticketek?

Waste of stubbs, burn ticketec's contract instead.
 
Dont burn bindi irwin, burn the master tapes so we dont have to see those shows ever again.
 
Victoria Beckham would melt with all the plastic. David, nah, top fella, leave him alone.
 
Joel Griffiths?  Nuff said, need any lighters? Kevin Muscrat as well. And dare I say it - Archie Thomspon just to shut the f**ken commentators up!

1. The FFA and probably the Stadium Trust where you guys will play would probably not appreciate this going on, makes good TV news business, if you get what I mean ...
 
2. If you're going to burn Oz images, do it outside the pub (there's a good idea, you lot should nominate a supporters pub to go to before/after matches to discuss the team and meet and greet and so on). That way it's away from the stadium, and less likely to caise any trouble with opposition supporters and so on
 
3. We don't burn NZ effergies over here in Oz, (in Melbourne we don't anyway) so there's no real need to burn effergies of Ausrtalians I feel.
 
This is modern day Australiasia, so I don't see the need to give the media (either here in Oz, ot there in NZ) any reason to bag the game.
 
We're having enough trouble here in Oz trying to get the media on side, you lot possible burning efferiges of Oz people wouldn't do the cause any good at all.
 
Just some comments to help you out!!!
 
Thank you, an once again good luck ...

I always found with any irritant present at the RoF, shouting at it makes me feel better..just saying.
Organised shouting at it is even more fun.Never mind the inquisitional pyromania,..its so dark ages.
With Stevo on this...(Is that a first mate?)

  Improving,,on the up, a work in progress from Italiano and the Nix. Bring on the bathroom bling in '24! COYN!

Fat Clive surely??
 
Could be dangerous however, like putting a torch to Mr Creosote.
 
Who knows what combustable gases exist inside that hideous man.
 
Cool hat though...

Last time I saw a guy with a hat like that, he was wearing nothing else but leather straps in the back pages of _express_ magazine.

Anyone wearing a dodgy leather hat like that deserves to be burned at a stake.
