TRASHBAG
A more intimate piece of Brownlow memorabilia there is not. Forget signed jumpers and footballs, a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own Adam Cooney's lucky budgie smugglers is here.
Buy them and wear them if you want.
We hereby launch Trashbag, a weekly opportunity for Mondo Bizarro readers to dig into the piggy bank, add something to the pool room and be a do-gooder all at once.
Here's the deal: We tantalise you with an offering that may have little to no value. You have four days to log onto eBay and go wild.
This Thursday at 4pm advertised goods go to the highest bidder for keeps. And, because we're kind-hearted, proceeds will be donated to the Catherine Freeman Foundation. Sound good?
Now for a little more info on this unique collectable.
After approximately 30 seconds of deep contemplation, Brownlow medallist Adam "Chas" Cooney offered up his match day undergarment of choice every week this season.
That's right HE WORE THESE LYCRA TOGS UNDER HIS FOOTY SHORTS FOR FOUR QUARTERS IN 25 BRILLIANT GAMES THIS YEAR!
We can't believe he didn't thank them in his speech on Brownlow night. "I always pick one pair each year and then go with them the whole year," the Western Bulldog said as he prepared to part with the fashion item that every man should really stop and think twice about before pulling on.
Ladies and gents, Chas Cooney's black bathers could be yours. And we promise, cross our hearts, this is ridgy-didge.
Get onto ebay.com.au, type "Adam Cooney Budgie Smugglers" in the search box and bid away.
Winner announced on this page on Friday.
