The Ben Hudson's Beard Appreciation Society.

[LostDoggy]

Have a look in this weeks footy record as I believe that this thread gets a mention.

Did it?

Did it?

I believe so. I'll report back tomorrow when I get my copy.

Before the game had the entire panel wear beards as a tribute to the Great Hairy Hudson. Word is spreading.

We probably need Dry Rot to have a rethink of his BHAStards group and instead of being Brian Harris (Lake) Appreciation Society it could now be the Ben Hudson Appreciation Society

Im not sure if any of you caught the Western Force vs Wellington Hurricanes Super 14 rugby game on Friday night from Subiaco. The Hurricanes team had just finished their 2 week tour of South Africa where they had been partaking in a best facial hair competition. The award went to Jason Eaton - who has a bit of a record for growing a hell of a beard (see below). Last friday he had basically shaved off all the inner part of his beard just leaving 2 lines going around the edge of where his beard extended to. Hard to explain but it looked even more weird than it sounds.

Sebastien Chabal

One scary mother_____ Nicknamed "l'Homme des Cavernes"—the Caveman.

At the last world cup, I was told he would only answer questions on French, just looked it up and found this.

France’s Sebastian Chabal: when in France, speak French

In a good English accent, French rugby star Chabal refuses to answer a question in English at a press conference, glared: ‘No. We are in France. Speak French please.’ No-one dares to challenge him, and he promptly skips off

Classic grumpy (and likely stinky) Frenchman

Chabal speaks English fine I believe (he played in England for a while) There's a Youtube clip of him answering the journalists question of 'will you answer a question in English' and he answers fluently in the negative. Too funny

I could live in Paris for crepes and Kronounberg alone. I don't find Parisians that bad.....

There is what your talking about a quick 30secs from the end of one of his interviews. I would never pi$$ that guy off.

And seriously, if anyone can get me a decent photo of Ben Hudson, King of Beard Mountain I will turn it into a t-shirt and we can all get one.

Well I'm just back from the footy and on page 10 woof.net.au gets a nice mention. It's starts off about Easybeats thread and even mentions my comment about him auditioning for ZZ Top.

Well done Easybeat for getting us a mention.

If someone can scan and display the article it would be greatly appreciated.

Channel 10 - Commentor Walls,

The camera shows Hudson walking to the bench, Walls: blah blah blah and that beard keeps getting longer and longer

[firstdogonthemoon]

No seriously, I need a decent photo of the great beardy weirdy. Anyone?

[AndrewP6]

If the beard makes him play well like he did today, keep it.... gotta say though, it's bloody ugly!

[LostDoggy]

FDOTM, I actually tried to get one of him warming up last week, but he was still too far away! I mean, you could see the beard, but not him.
