A little bit Aussie

Several years back, FS Wisconsin would show an AFL highlight show at 5 pm or so (unless the Brewers were playing out east), and I fell in love with the game after I happened to tune in one week.  Unfortunately, FSW no longer airs the show, but I've been posting many an Aussie footy concept ever since.  Here's some of my fare, some recent, some not so much.

First, the only actual club among this batch, the Queanbeyan Tigers, who hail from New South Wales but are far closer to Canberra than Sydney, and thus usually play in Canberra-centric leagues.  Like many "Tigers" in Aus, in real life they usually wear black jumpers with a gold sash, which is worn by the Richmond Tigers of the AFL, so here I decided on a couple different takes on it.  The one-off, the sash over black and white stripes, is a throwback to the 50s, when Queanbeyan merged with another club, nearby Acton FC, which was popularly known as "the Combine," and had been wildly successful, making it to the grand final every year of the merger (which ceased due to...wait for it...money.  Queanbeyan was supplying most of the players, but Acton was taking in most of the money.)
