Australias worst Mascot









Naming Australias worst mascot.
Initially one might consider this an easy task yet the plethorea of candidates could make for a very tough decision.
To help out we've compiled a list that you may like to peruse for inspration but please feel free to nominate your own candidates for this prestigious title.
Results published next week after a completely biased reveiw of responses.
1. AFL Freemantle Dockers(pictured right)


Yes it's Johnny 'the Doc' Docker with his stragly blonde hair and surfboard attatched who could resist cringing at his presence alongside elite sportsmen and creepily close to young children


Likes: Cheering crowds and the smell of surf wax.
Dislikes: The mob up the road in Perth and the other old fart mascots.


Enough said.




2. Soccer Syd and Sydnee of Sydney F.C.


These two have featured previously in this blog and we feel that

they cannot be overlooked in this catagory. Not only has the marketing focus strayed from the animal world into a strange humanly animated type region but they have created mascots that look as though they are giving an offensive hand gesture.




3.NRL Sparky the Eel Parramatta
Wow!! Wethink it is the lack of costume bulk that then leads to a grossly enlarged head that most disturbs us about old sparky here. The facial expression that reminds us of the velociraptor from jurassic park is sure to have the kiddies in tears of terror. Good work Parra!
