Have to say that after a few Wizza Cup games and being one of the few teams to go banner-less,I was expecting to see a beauty to kick off the season in a big game with a big crowd on hand.But what the hell was that???You have to admit Collingwood can produce something better than that.
I know the Cheersquad do a great job every week,we really appreciate it,much love to you all but that was a shocker that looked like it was done in a hurry.First game,all this time to work on a good one and we're left with that pitiful thing.
We had some beauties last year,the Melbourne match was a fave.We need to raise the bar.
We need to set the standard that all banners are measured by.
WORLD CLASS BANNERS!
make it creative,make it witty,make it funny,make it a stab at the opposition,make it spectacular.Just make it better than that beast.Even the Richmond banner was good.I was almost embarassed after seeing theres then seeing ours.
Don't forget you are representing all of us.Give us something to be proud of.Remember that the banner is a very important element of the team.Its like the cover of a book or album.Its the 1st thing people see that tells them they're about to see the greatest team in the land play shortly.It needs more thought to go into it.If need be,I'd be happy to contribute some suggestions for future banners.One side must at least entertain the fans while the other side must inspire the players as they read it when they come out.
I hope this has inspired and challenged you guys.Raise that bar.Remember: WORLD CLASS BANNERS and nothing less.

Heres some suggestions for next week.
MEMO:WEST COAST
WELCOME TO MELBOURNE
THANKS FOR CUMMING
PLEASE ACCEPT FROM US
A COLLINGWOOD THRASHING
RECIPE FOR EAGLE SOUP
22 STUFFED EAGLES
A PINCH OR TWO OF DAVIS
A CUP OF BUCKS
SERVED UP ON A PLATE OF B&W
Hope some of these suggestions can help you out.I acknowledge you all do a great job for the club and sometimes club advertising takes priority but just wanted to make the point that Thursday's banner was below par and you can use that as a future reference.Hope my comments didn't come off as being offensive which wasn't my intent.Just wanted to highlight an area that may not receive the importance it deserves.Hope my comments inspire you all creatively and force other c/s to sit up and take notice of the standard the CFC is setting.

I will help make the banner this week after work. I invite everyone to come along and help out. Its very easy to say the banner was crap but let me tell you that it takes ages to make and the people that make the banner are very dedicated and hard working
It's time to play the game
Time to play the game!
Hahahahaha
Hahaha
It's all about the game, and how you play it
All about control, and if you can take it
All about your debt, and if you can pay it
It's all about pain, and who's gonna make it...
I am the game, you don't wanna play me
I am control, no way you can change me
I am have heavy debts, no way you can pay me
I am the pain, and I know you can't take me
Look over your shoulder, ready to run
Like a good little bitch, from a smoking gun
I am the game, and I make the rules
So move on out, and you can die like a fool
Try and figure out what the news is gonna be
Come on over sucker, why don't you ask me?
Don't you forget there's a place you can pay
'Cuz I am the game and I want to play
It's time to play the game...

You're gonna change your name, you're gonna die in flames
