(L) Angry, Hamish and the Devil himself, Ross, in NY. (R) Hamish from Hamish & Andy fame.

A day after polling finished for the Swannie of September competition, it has been revealed that Dave “Angry” Hadley had submitted a cranger of a clanger of a photo – but it has never seen the light of day. Until now. The Swannies’ website has pulled out the ol’ chestnut, “We just found Angry’s email in our junk folder”.

This scandal, uncovered by the Swannies’ website, could prove more controversial than some of the statements made in this year’s Thursday’s Taber Talk column during the AFL Finals Series.

Below, Angry’s email, dated 24 September, has been reproduced.

It’s Finals time and you can find a fellow Swannie anywhere!

A quick shout out that my visit to New York yielded immediate results with Ross ‘You have done it again’ McRae answering the call to watch the semi final of Geelong vs Weagles.

The Aussies were out in force in NY, all attending the pub with the name that took the owners months to originate, ‘The Australian’.

Ross and I were trying to work out why the Weagles fans far outweighed the Geelong fans.  We quickly realised that Melbourne was a galaxy away for a Geelong supporter, let alone the US.

It was a real Who’s Who of NY Aussie talent.

Here is a terrible grainy photo of Rosscoe, Angry and Hamish from Hamish and Andy fame (see above).

The writer does not expect Fabbo ‘But who is Sam Lane?’ to know who Hamish is (Ed’s note: cheap and unfair shot…).
