    Agreed. Both better than Defenders of the Earth but that’s up there for me too.

    The original series ran from 1985 to 1988, produced by Rankin/Bass Animated Entertainment.

    I'm not sure if the series is currently shown in Australia.

    Wow! I was studying TV Production in 1985 and we kept a very close eye on what was showing. 

    I doubt it ran in Australia then, Japanese artists?

    i just watched the intro. It looks a bit Prince Planet and Gigantor in drawing style

    I originally posted Voltron but that’s top 4 four mine, had forgotten about Defenders of the Earth.

    Yes Loony Tunes. But they were always referred to as Warner Bros as opposed to Disney Cartoons, which were good, but Warner Bros were no 1. :)

    Brilliant imagery...and is that a Demonic glint in the big Cat's eye ;)

    I have it on good authority, that should we be this year's premiers, they will change their name to FLAGUAR until the end of 2019!

    About time some prestige was added to the jumper. We are a sleeping giant, with a small (comparative to the big clubs) support base, albeit a base that has a high purchase intent and attendance rate. This makes us exclusive. And will no doubt help in appealing to inner-city Chinese students and expats.

    I wonder how much of Jaguar's decision is about broad exposure to the masses through TV and how much is about access to the MFC database of members to allow for targeted marketing? I suspect in this instance the latter might have been significant in the decision.

    Super happy about the sponsor. My dad had the W12 saloon with fabric roof (Daimler), I still remember going to Snowy Mountains for a summer holiday with a little 3 cyl Suzuki 4WD, a Honda moto bike on the trailer, and my 2 brothers plus camping gear blasting along at 140km/h listening to Neil Diamond and Willie Nelson on the cassette player, was epic. My uncle had the E type until the rear axle broke off. I have had a life long love of Jags ever since. Dad had the car until I was 18/19 and I got to drive it, including at speed, you really could see the fuel gauge move.

    Were the Daimler’s exactly the same apart from badges and options?

    Yes it had the Jag 5.3lt 300hp engine, was released as the double six, Daimler was a UK company bought by Jag in 1960. Basically  aXJ stretch saloon.

    I once thought that too, the name is a coincidence, they companies were not connected.

    Correction a British engineer bought the rights to the name and motor design but afterwards was always a english company.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
