COLLINGWOOD has effectively sacked its entire cheer squad to purge it of so-called troublemakers

Believe it or not, i am going to defend the Collingwood cheersquad of 08. I did a documentary for my university Film and TV course, and one of the fans i interviewed was a mad Pies fan. Naturally, he was also a cheersquad member and so i managed to go into the area to get some really amazing footage for during the games.

Now, they are every bit as feral as everyone says they are, but they love the club. Most of the those who are in the cheersquad are the ones who do the banner making, and i'll be very interested to hear whether the "new" group gets involved at club level like these guys did. The amazing thing for me is the price, how can they expect the blue collar members to afford $800 every year? So while i'm always happy to see Collingwood make asses of themselves, this sort of thing is not good for the game.

Eddie on the rampage....

The filth.......

I love it.

Gadzooks! The filth turning on their more feral members! One of the most extraordinary examples of intra-class discord since Chifley and the miner's strike!

Ha, never thought I'd see the day where the MFC move to Cranbourne and Collingwood introduces a membership that costs near-to twice as much as an MCC membership...And they call us toffs!

Perhaps Carlton's membership cost should be lowered to weed out the crooks

$ 800 to join that lot behind the Goals???? Ha F off i much prefer the MCC with change to buy a MFC Membership. $800 what a joke. Eddie always going on about "We except everyone at Collingwood" Another McGuire lie. Hope it Back fires bad on them. FILTH.

Rumor has it that there is now a minimum IQ of 20 required for application......

At this point the club is not expecting any successful applications and they are opening the positions to Zoo animals which they expect a better set of candidates!

800 bucks....easily joint MFC/MCC membership, as well as a stand alone MFC membership.

800 bucks.....i wonder how many centrelink payments that is

No problem for their teenage fans...the baby bonus more than covers it, it just means a slightly smaller plasma screen.

Can I just say, in a Spike Milligan octave...

*clears throat*

Whooooo Caaaaares!!!!
