Tah man is the lamest mascot, the tahs are a great team and no offense meant to their fans. I just feel that mascots shouldn't talk, their message should be conveyed through wild gesticulations and the occasional gastrointestinal eruption rather than vulgar speech.

The creepy porn-star masked avenger from the Rebels is way more disturbing.
But yeah, best seen and not heard, I agree.
 

Pass it to Dunning!

Let me tell you. Tah Man can really work a crowd. He will work his way through the stands and make everyone laugh. One time he demanded I take a photo with him. It was pretty awesome.

Tah Man is a person though. Of course he should talk. It was always a better option than Warren the Waratah.

Brumby Jack is a horse. Who has ever heard of a talking horse? The concept is ridiculous. Mr Ed was a hack.

You have to look at who Tah-Man is targeted towards. My young son absolutely loves him. During the game, when Tah-man comes over towards our side of the field, my boy is more interested in him than the game. If you look at him before the games when he is outside walking around the crowd, the kids are all over him.
He is there for the kids, not the 30 year old drunk guys in the stands...

Big marketing/merchandising opportunity for Tahs HQ there.

A Tah Man costumes for the young Tahs fan.

Depending on the quality/detailing of the outfit, sell it for less than $50 which would be way less than a Tahs kids jersey ($130). Toss in one of the free kids memberships and it could be a big seller.

Nah! Make it good quality, sell it for $150+ and it'll go like hotcakes and make the franchise a fortune. Think about the Tah fans' average wealth and social position.

Could those joining Pfitzy, Braveheart, matty_k, Hawko, suckerforred and yours truly at The Clock on Saturday arvo please make their intentions known here. If the group's going to exceed 15 the functions bod would like to move us to a larger area, at last count we're getting close to that number.

I'll be there with a +1. Have told a couple of others but no idea if they'll show.

If getting moved to a larger area means near a TV for the 5.30 game, let's do it!

From memory there aren't really TVs upstairs.
