[random260]

Umm that's kinda strange is this a normal thing? Right now: rioli, lycett, duggan and cripps tattooed wce logo on their bodies???

What happened to the good old days where you just ate a live goldfish to celebrate

I don’t think it’s too uncommon..I think tony Shaw got a little magpie after the 1990 flag. I’m sure a lot of players get one

Can’t see why anyone would want to have a permanent reminder of the successful culmination of your life’s work.

 

[RookiePick]

Gonna make an interesting conversation starter for Lycett at the Power next preseason...

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Quite common. They mostly look shithouse. But there’s small ones like the 1990 Magpies that look alright.

Roughead (terrible)

I actually prefer Roughead's. It's a neat caricature of 70s and 80s era mascots. You can't go wrong with Weg.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Lots of players get them?

Masten already had 2 eagles. And a wraith, 3 of the beatles and about 12 meters of ivy.

I think he is booked in tomorrow

Leave the pensioners alone.. they deserve to celebrate the most important things in their lives . Bless them.

Maybe he can add to it?
A few coaches in America’s have done similar

Rex Ryan had a New York jets tattoo, then when he went to buffalo I think he got a bills related tat too
Gary Anderson was a college coach at Utah state. Had a tattoo of them, then went to Wisconsin (and then Oregon state) don’t know if he upgraded or anything though.

A tattoo being used as a symbol of collective belonging and achievement... what next?

 

[quotemokc]

I recall a story after the Hawks won in 08 I think.

Roughead and a bunch of other blokes went to get the tat from above, he went first, the rest thought it looked shit and didn't get one

Can't understand why anybody would want to put a hemselves through the pain of having a tattoo!

 

[HAPPY BUDDHA]

I thought I heard somewhere that all the Collingwood players got one in 2010. Tried to spot it on Dane Swan but gave up looking halfway into the second hour and still on his first arm.

Might have better luck finding the Tigers17 tatt on Dustin Martin but I’m gonna need a stiff drink or two before staring at him for that long.

 

[Cuzz09]

Ive got an Eagles logo on my ankle and got the premiership years underneath. Time to add a new number

Being part of history winning an afl grand final...why would u get a tattoo of that when you can get something of significance like barb wire.

former Richmond captain Kane Johnson has a Crows premiership tattoo on his ankle

 

[TheSunGod]

Couple of Swans players got tats on their ankles after 2012. Pretty sure Malceski was one, not sure of the others.

Ruined his ankle then. Couldn’t kick for shit after he came to us.

They should have got a generic tribal pattern around their bicep instead

Or Chinese characters that dont actually mean what they think it means.

The lesson in all of this, and you're reminded of this every single time you go to a hotel pool in Queensland in Melbourne's winter - is that pasty fat white dudes shouldn't get tattoos.

 

[IllBeTheJudge]

Little known fact is that Tim Membrey played and won a premiership with the Traralgon Palm Trees.

Nah, good on him. AFL players mostly understand and get the bond he'd have with WCE players and aren't petty like supporters.
