      Is Huddo taking the same line as one of the South Dragon's basketballers by not shaving it off until we win the title?

        A terrific beard there, sporting it like a true champion. We need a Bernard Toohey-like moustache on Stephen Tiller IMO.

          Well hopefully he gets the same results as Mark Worthington.

            Anyone else find it funny that it's a different colour to his hair?

              There's a long-standing NHL tradition (which other North American sports have since adopted) of 'playoff beards', whereby players whose teams qualify for the playoffs, which incidentally last for up to two months, boycott shaving resulting in beards which continue to sprout the longer their team progresses, often culminating in the Stanley Cup being awarded to something akin to a tribe of wookie-like neanderthals.

              Here's a few memorable examples, amongst which Ben wouldn't look out of place:

                  Have to add Ben on this list - What could we call it?

                    I'd say it's Chin Curtain meets Balbo.

                    I'm hoping for some Franz Josef from one of the boys before seasons end.
                    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                            It's not too unusual. My facial hair has one area that has some ginger in it

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

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