Leafing through it this morning, found three stories which had me and Our Wend absolutely wetting ourselves about.
AFL FOOTBALL
The AFL game here is HUGE (its actually only played here, I think!), its following is just incredible and its very focus is on it being a family sport. One which every one from your granny to the youngest can enjoy.
I have only been to one game and the most noticeable thing to me was the complete lack of foul language from anyone in the stand. The worst think I actually heard (if you can call it bad) was boooing! And that was generally at the ref.
So you can imagine this article just didn't ring true to me.
Very recently The West Coast Eagles who play at Paterson (Profanity!! Get it?) Stadium/Subiaco Oval, its called both, have had their fans labelled as the most 'disgraceful' by the club coach of Geelong, for the abuse that they have directed at players on both sides.
Yesterday, West Coast Eagles (Eagles) were playing Collingwood (Pies) at 'Profanity Stadium', a huge game for both sides as the season end is nigh.
It would seem that the Eagles fans were at it again abusing all and sundry, mind you the Pies supporters were giving as good as they get. The following are extracts of exactly how one of the Chief Reporters from the local rag described a few of the 'ugly incidents' that he witnessed.
'Fans hurled abuse and profanity within metres of children as crowd behaviour again came under the spotlight in the Eagles first game since Geelong coach labelled the Subiaco crowd the worst behaved in the country a fortnight ago'
'Calls of "wanker", "you useless f....er", and "weak c..t" were heard in the stands'
'A Collingwood cheer squad member (supporter) sprayed (shouted at) Eagles fans and gave the finger more than a dozen times screaming "shut up you f....ing ferals"
"The 59 year old woman, said 'Its called passion" she told the reporter "No-one bags the Pies and gets away with it, I don't give a s--t if they don't like my s--t stirring"
'A 56 year old woman Eagles fan called security to censor the Pies cheer squad member' "what came out of here mouth was disgusting' "She is an animal"
"The Pies cheer squad member then clashed with FIVE police officers and Patersons security guards who told here to leave the ground"
 |
| 'Whilst she was arguing, an Eagles supporter yelled "F--ck off you silly old trollop" |
"Sitting nearby, an Eagles supporter from Mangeebup said it was a disgrace her 11 year old son was exposed to so much swearing in the stands"
"But another Pies cheer squad member a 48 year old woman from Melbourne said "Kids hear it at home, they hear it at school, the footy's no different. F---ing hell, its all too politically correct these days"
'As the Eagles dominated in the 3rd quarter, calls of 'p--s off ' and 'you dumb c--t' were heard directed at players and officials from the Collingwood fans. 'You hear some swearing but really I think Eagles supporters need to fire up more' a 65 year old woman said'.
It seems to me that Collingwood have the most abusive supporters!!!!!!!!
Just for interest, Eagles won 107 - 58, a right f---ing thrashing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHEEL CLAMP MAN
Its hard to believe I know but its true.
A guy who was clamped is hitting back by becoming a super hero!!
He does it all for free, if you make a donation he then passes it on to a charity for the homeless. An all round good egg, but the police want you to 'dob' him in. Not much chance of that.
The caped crusader has sawn off several clamps across Perth with his high powered battery powered angle grinder. When he spots a clamped car, he dons his costume and mask and asks the driver if he wants the clamp removed. Silly question!!
 |
| Looks like something out of The Village People! |
Our intrepid reporter caught up with him and he said that he put the costume together himself (mmmm, particularly like the socks and the Shirley Bassey type gloves). He went onto say "I wear the costume because a lot of streets have CCTV" and "I always keep it with me so I can change in the car and jump out with my angle grinder"
He has vowed to make sure sparks continue to fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Police have labelled him a menace, no not Denis, just a MENACE.
And finally
ARREST & SEX BAN FOR NOISY LOVERS
A Perth couples noisy love making has so annoyed their neighbours that they called the police and had them arrested.
Sunday nights call out by police said it followed a report of a domestic dispute and "screaming". This was not the case.
"We were just having sex, no way were we fighting, we were being intimate Sunday and into Sunday night" she said.
He admitted they were noisy during sex but said "The neighbours could have easily called and knocked the door instead of calling the police"
He went on "Its mostly her, our average sex goes anywhere from four, six, seven hours basically five nights a week. That's pretty much why I am asleep at six o'clock in the afternoon.......I will probably die of a heart attack. She is almost killing me as it is"
I think there is some exaggeration in there don't you?
