Who thought up that genius name for a team?
Club History
The Fighting squids established themselves as a social group in 2005. A bunch of Aussies met and decided that they needed to kick the old footy around. After a typo of the "Fighting Squad" was read as the Fighting Squids, the name stuck and so too did the team.
That's awesome

Aussies getting together overseas & deciding they want to play our footy....that won't sit well with the anti-AFL brigade!

AFL as an organisation, or the sport as a whole?

The anti-AFL brigade attack any promotion of Australian Football. Negativity is like a virus!

Is there a logo for the Fighting Squids?

By the way...can anyone remember the LA Crocodiles VFL side someone made up as some fanciful pipedream in the mid-80's?

no, but I guess they were trying to create synergies with a certain 80s-tastic film franchise

ads would have been something like: "that's not a football, this is a football"
