Hairbear Trades The Bat For The Mallet

Australian Pensioner's Monthly

The Ashfield RSL Indoor Crocquet Club has apparently embraced long time cricketer for Battered Savs, Hairbear, in a surprise switch of codes for the big man.

A tearful Hairbear spoke openly at a press conference this afternoon saying how he had given up trying to get back into the team and thought he would be better served playing crocquet. "I just love the pace of crocquet, its enjoyable, and there's a vibrant social scene too. So far this week I've been an indispensable member of the "Wrinkled Sav's" crocquet team, they can't get enough of me. Plus we play Bingo, put a few dollars in the pokies, and after all that, we dance the night away at the club after the game." This was confirmed by witnesses claiming seeing a tall Greek man at the club making a complete arse of himself after a few schooners.

Fans of Hairbear are said to be angered over his resignation. People have paid up to $3 for a Powerade to sit and watch Hairbear in action at the FDICC, and there's no chance of seeing him there ever again.

Members of the Battered Sav's are said to be saddened by Hairbears exit, but apparently nothing could repair the ill-feeling among the team ever since the text message scandal that embroiled Hairbear earlier this year.
