I just found this amongst a whole heap of papers I chucked out..
It was written around two years ago when the war on terrorism began.
USA: Essendon - Arrogant. If they suffer the slightest injury the whole world hears about it.
Al Qaeda: Western Bulldogs - Thugs who like to take out opponents behind the play. Capable of upset wins but all other supporters hate them.
UK: Carlton - Have a leader who is far more outspoken than he needs to be. Have been involved in many memorable finals campaigns.
Pakistan: St Kilda - Trying hard to be one of the big boys, but has upset a large percentage of its supporter base and may soon face a membership revolt.
The Taliban: Melbourne - the "Old Boys" club where members are measured as much by what they wear as who they are. Not a consistent contender but haas home ground advantage in the finals.
India: Collingwood - A sleeping giant, not a contender at the moment but with a huge supporter base. Likes to think its opinion is worth plenty, yet is largely ignored by non-fans.
The Northern Alliance: Geelong - A rabble in desperate need of sponsorship dollars.
Israel: Richmond - Rabid supporters come from everywhere when they make the finals.
Palestine: Kangaroos - A team looking for a home, had been on the periphery for many years before the 90s. Not regarded as a big contender but with enough names to upset the favourites.
Uzbekistan: Brisbane - Northern neighbour who will receive some league help. Worry a few in the south until they win a flag or two when they will become everyone's most hated foe. Undergone a name change recently.
Japan: Sydney - No attack, last campaigm of any note in 1945. Big player financially in the 80s.
Iraq: Adelaide - Have been a contender before and opponents prefer to see them out of the finals race. Most of the teams from the other side of the border dislike them.
Russia: West Coast Eagles - Once a great superpower, now in disarray.
Italy: Port Adelaide - Once a great empire with a tradition few could match. Now go largely unnoticed by all but the most loyal supporters.
Germany: Hawthorn - Tendency to blondeness. A strong finals history but off the scene of late. Unfortunate uniforms.
Australia: Fremantle - Not a contender. Just in it to make up the numbers. An embarassment fo their supporters.
As I said this is two years old - so a few things have changed since then!!
