Great collection (although I haven't worn a tie for 25 years).

Tie number 28 arrived a couple of days ago

This is taking fanaticism to a whole new level. I am jealous.

Which bit?

Wish I had a spare room. I might have to chuck out some children so I can dedicate a room for my Swans shrine!

Great idea.
So worth it.

Just remembered my Tshirt. Hope in hell of ever getting into it. I would stretch it to blazes, and that would be a shame. I won it. Remember the naked men add?

Bradley, Cressa, MickyO I think, Nicksy, Cookie, standing naked with strategically placed tubes of moisturising cream? 1997 ish? God they were gorgeous. Bradley looked like he was about to drop the tube completely, Cookie has amazing pecs, Nicksy is laughing his head off. Its a lovely picture........very artistic........Now where the hell have I put it!!

It's all lovingly placed in hermetically sealed boxes in a temperature and light controlled environment.

Nah, really... it's all just chucked into boxes and piled into a spare room.

Where do you get them from? I'm going to need a collection for finals time

There are currently about 3 different ones on eBay for fairly reasonable prices. Goodscore has 1 or two. Swans have a new one out but it's $50 & it's close to the ugliest one in my collection & they might also have the 2012 premiers tie.

Otherwise I have got a lot from the Swans shop, or eBay over the years.

It'd be nice if you didn't bid against me tho

No wonder you live at Goodesy's place, no room at yours!

Strangely enough, I only have 2 Swans ties and neither are in that pic.

One is a Burgundy coloured tie with tiny blue opera houses on a beige splash background. It is circa 96 or 97 and was the tie worn by the players that year. The other is a royal blue tie with a small club emblem design. I don't think it was an official AFL/Swans tie.

Not sure if this image of my tie colletion will work. Anyway, if it does, these are the ones I have ... and I'm after pretty much anything that isn't there ...



YAY! ... seemed to work, sorry about the clarity but it gives you an idea. 27 ties now - latest one arrived today

I just wish the Sydney Merchandising department got the cushions back. I lost mine at ANZ last year, and I miss it like mad. One with a little slot in it for name card and membership number.

Red and white perhaps? With a noice V and no sign of cyggie?

I was jealously eyeing one of the PC seat cushions, definitely required at some locations!

[goswannies]

And how will we know which ones you have or don't have?
26 is a pretty impressive effort.
