GWS Giants?

[dimelb]

Colours OK, but missed the chance to be the Jolly Green Giants.
The name is lame and from another game. Derivative, unimaginative and dull.

Orange.
Gross.

Doesn't matter what you want to call them, the blacktown bogans can go to hell in a handbasket.

If they're playing Sydney and it's their home game ... thanks, I'll stay at home.
I'll not willingly put money into their coffiers.

I wont be supporting them at all, financially or emotionally, but do hope they find some success and turn our derby/showdown/rivalry/whatever into something really special.

I still don't get why they chose to keep their name the way it is either - no one is going to say "Greater Western Sydney Giants."

I would have preferred Wolves to be their moniker, but I suppose it does not matter as I am not a potential supporter anyway. Although I like the fact that their colours won't clash with ours - much better than GC.

yeah good point - getting a chant up with "Greater Western Sydney Giants" clap, clap,clap - will be a bit tricky and by the time you got all the words out the moment would be gone.

Colours are "nice,different,unusual" I guess they were a bit limited in that area.

Still exciting times ahead - I'm waiting to read what tripe Dean Ritchie, Phil Rothfield & Rebecca Wilson will dish up in the next couple of days trying to rip it to shreds.
