There's an NFL one done by interpretationbydesign.com that was pretty funny and kind of helpful and I took their effort to try my own for the AFL.
Getting started was the hardest part so I thought getting Collingwood out of the way first was best. Trying to play on the tropes of certain clubs but make them easy to understand for people with no clue about AFL was pretty fun but toward the end with a shrinking pool of clubs, it became harder to paint scenarios with stark dichotomies that related to the different clubs.
The Geelong/Hawks one at the very end was actually hard to think of. It started off with "Prefer to wear a Corduroy jacket or a Sequinned suit?". I was trying to riff on Hawthorn being a glamour club full of yuppies and Geelong being a bunch of boisterous bogans. Then I went for "Wear Stonewashed Levi Bootcut Jeans or a pair of Ksubi Acidwashed Reverse-stitched Jeggings" only to realise probably the hipster army of Melbourne are probably wearing jeggings. I hope the last point is a little more understandable to anyone not from Australia as it's better than my other choice "Pot and a parma at the RSL!"
Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this and I hope it is slightly useful to someone.
