That still leaves Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn etc. Uranus would be a good fit for them.

I thought they spent the off-season knocking back a million dollars worth of Crown Lagers! Rolling Eyes

Considering how they've been boozing and infighting, being sponsored by the god of war somehow seems appropriate.

I reckon that 'snickers' suits them better since we all have a good snicker every time we read some bad press about that Filthy club, (which seems to be all the time lately Very Happy ).

I would have thought that Mars was a good fit.

It would help them Work, Rest & 'Play'.

Calling occupants, of Boozy Yarra River Craft....

Today's Age reports...
Quote:
Channel Nine news said that Mars, which has been in talks with Carlton as a possible replacement sponsor for the Malaysian government, had withdrawn.

This followed the late December ''booze cruise'' that led to the exiling from the senior team of three players, Eddie Betts, Ryan Houlihan and Andrew Walker.

A club spokesman said while some potential sponsors obviously had ''paused'' after the incident, talks were still continuing with several sponsors, and that it was not the case that it had ceased speaking to Mars.

The spokesman said that Carlton could not be said to have ''lost'' a sponsor as a result of its off-field mishap because it had not signed one in the first place.


Or is it "The chances of anything coming from Mars, are a million to one, they say!"?

Sheeds was right, the Martians are coming!

Wonder what their reply would be to "Have you lost a potential million dollar sponsor?" Wonder why the journo didn't ask that immediately following the initial BS response.

Love the username.

Maybe then can get Rabuka, Bainimarama or some other Fijian despot to deliver a paper bag to their doorstep.

not sure if this has been posted yet but there's a 'I bet I Can Find 1,000,000 people who HATE CARLTON' page on facebook. lol, it's got off to a pretty slow start at only 97 members so I urge all to become a fan and tell your friends! Smile
