    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.

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
