    It does have an artist's signature in the bottom left. Hard to decipher, especially if the circle flourish incorporates extra letters. Nooyal?

    I googled down that path, too, Goffy, with the same results I suspect you experienced.

    The very un-footy, American-football-style 'knickers' intrigue me as to its origin...

    I spent a good couple of hours on this yesterday evening, putting my skills as a former detective to the test - I came up with absolutely nothing - I used AI, reverse image search tools and manual searches; concentrated on the poster as a whole, and an enhanced copy of the signature alone.

    took it out of the frame.

    not much to go on. no newspaper name or any identifying marks

    on the back is a photo of the premiership team, with Richard Wainwright AAP in the corner.

    from What i have found Richard Wainwright is a freelance photographer in Perth, so perhaps a local Perth paper? but that name will pertain to the team photo on the back not the main art piece... so who knows

    I bought this in Melbourne .

    Post this. Any clues in it? I reckon 'Perth' or WA might be relevant for this particular GF.

    yeah, I thought it was nothing to go on. But it is the only other info I can give.

    Looking at the signature, I’d be looking into graffiti artists as that is definitely a ‘tag’ as opposed to a regular signature. The photo is interesting just for the fact that it was taken by a local Perth based photographer…the fact that they were together could indicate that the poster was obtained from said photographer? Is it worth attempting to contact this Richard Wainwright chap to see if he has any knowledge of it?

    Could you post the photo, please, @red and blue forever? Cropped screenshot uses least bytes.

    Yeah, I checked him, too, ET. I agree. Different cartoon style, too.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
