Can you imagine a Collingwood stick figure family in the window? It has a shopping centre car park option that locks on the front brake while the accelerator goes to the floor.

They couldn't have picked a better team to support provided their reputation. Same goes for Ford and Geelong

I think it is fair to say AFL supporters who don't barrack for Collingwood will unite with all other team supporters to dislike Collingwood and it's supporters.

Who is the finance through, centrelink?

$20 a fortnight from your dole payment and it's all yours by the time you get your pension.

They still couldn't afford to put petrol in it though.

This special edition comes with free "siphon pack"

I bet will see a lot of them back in dealer yards for warranty claims around September, with problems like being stuck in reverse and a unexplained misfires.

They should have incorporated the Winnie Blue logo into the badge. Complete the picture.

Seriously though. I would rather go to the dentist with no anesthetic than buy a Commy.

Actually Malthouse cracks me up, most reporters deserve whats coming. They dont exactly hold back dishing it out.

This is a fitting way for the Commodore to be remembered.

A lot more to Joffa than most think

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joffa_Corfe

does anyone know the leaders of the other cheers squads?


Most wouldn't unless they were part of it just another thing to show how well known the Collingwood thing goes

Eddie's a smart man
How much would have Holden paid to have the colllingwood logo / naming rights etc
Hang as much crap on it as you like but one thing I'm noticing is that Holden isn't going quietly

It will be interesting to see how much marketing Ford is going to put into their new model ....Ford Marketing now that's an oxymoron
