Re: Western Bulldogs draftee Clay Smith handed Callan Ward's number

Hey don't get me wrong it's not like I'm threatening a boycot or something stupid like that. It just annoys me that whenever Cassius is mentioned in a news article so is Judas Mcpuffyhair and now we went and specifically gave Clay his old number.

Oh Yeah - great name so that we can separate the two Judas' or do you have an extension name for NB as well?

Surprised someone hasn't pulled the racist card considering that Cassius Clay is obviously a direct reference to Muhammed Alis' slave name.

Re: Western Bulldogs draftee Clay Smith handed Callan Ward's number

To be honest I'm not too happy with all the Ward references and comparisons. It reminds me of a scorned lover trying to make their ex jealous by flaunting new flame. Clay is not and should not be Ward he is his own man and should be able to forge his own path within our footy club without the added pressure and comparisons.

Same, I think it's a little beneath us to behave this way. Ward has gone and it's sad but i'm over it now and rather than tag the kid Ward version 2, let him forge his own destiny.

Smith should of taken the nubmer 8, which is a number that is steeped in real hard man history.

So I take it your a do badder then?The great Cassius Clay the man who won a gold for his country then was told he couldn't enter a pub because of the color of his skin.Personally would think nobody would take any offense at Clay being nicknamed Cassius.

This bloke who works for Optus...or is it Aldi? Oh is that a footy T-shirt?

Maybe there is another reason these two moved to Sydney?? ^_^ little bit of privacy next to the pool....

Will GWS have a float in this year's Mardi Gras?

As a past Player Sponsor of Sam whatever his name was, I'd just like to say my #11 jumper is gathering mothballs and when the new jumper arrives it will be a #32 in honour of my Sponsored boy Michael (Gena) Talia. Hey I didn't give him the nickname. I was gonna call him EmTee oops I ment MT

In fairness the name change was more to do with a conversion to Islam than a rejection of a slave name.

Gena, that made me chuckle. Hopefully the next occupier of 11 has more luck than Sam!
Hopefully a better kick as well

In Reid's defence he most likely was going to be delisted!

Aza, he was virtually. Unfortunate for him. I thought he had a lot of potential, hence I sponsored him. However is it a picture of The Callan Reid new Love Shack?????

this headline annoys me. It's not Callan Ward's number. The number belongs to a group and a club.

I agree. It sounds a little like we are living in the past not moving forward. It might be different if it was the number of a recent retiree but not someone who moved on to greener pastures.

Clay Smith got the number 14 and that's all we needed to know.
