Surely should run a competition with the old 25 words thing as to why you should be the one to toss the coin.

I don't think so -- it's taking them all afternoon to go through the many entries for the fans photo competition!

I heard it was going to be a club member. Don't know how they'll choose ?

There were three tosses of the coin. The "tosser", no not Eddie, some other guy, flipped it onto the back of his hand, after our Pres called "heads". It was "heads" but Eddie objected because the coin did not hit the ground. The next toss was "tails" and Eddie then claimed he had won, but after some discussion, it was decided to make it two out of three. The final toss was "heads" and we won.

Eddie was right about the first toss. I once was involved in an employment decision where the panel was split 50/50, and no amount of discussion was going to change anyone's mind. So I suggested that we toss a coin, took one out of my pocket and magnanimously invited an alternative supporter to call. She did, and I landed it on the back of my hand. To this day, she still doesn't know that I cheated. Maybe it's just a boy thing.

Saw that on the news.
Eddie is nothing more than a bully.

But Westaway gives in waaaaay tooooo easily.
Perhaps he thinks Eddie IS the AFL?

Westaway should have said "We've had the toss - you lost - if you don't like it take it to court" and just walked away.

Perhaps Westaway didn't mind how many times the coin was tossed, just knows deep in his guts that we're going to win anyway???!!!
