Some may be aware that this season TheJetstream will have a new editor.
The Fish Family has expnded in the off season and any spare time I had has been absorbed by dirty nappies and sleep disrupted nights.

Blackmac has stepped up to fill the void, and while the handover has started to happen, I'm putting out this call for content for the first issue of this season.

At this stage it is hoped the first issue will be on sale at the Melbourne game.

after a relativley quiet off season, ive struggled to come up with the following suggested article topics.

1. HSG
2. Tinks
3. Griff
4. Heskey
5. The Rally
6. Wanderers entering comp.... GCU leaving
7. Players leaving.
8. Players comin in.
9. Players who stayed put.
10. Emerging Jets.
11. Youth League.
12. W-league.
13. Away travel.
14. Memories of KB.
15. Memories of Breakers.
16. Memories of United.
17. Comic Strips/Memes
18. Tifo
19. the Figs
20. the Tenzo
21. Junior Jets in NBN
22. NBN season review
23. Bay2Banter (Furns)
24. Marquee Players
25. Supporters Trusts

contibutions of any length can be emailed to jetstreameditor@yahoo.com.au
or PM's to me.

the fanzine, as ever, relies on fans to write for it and help sell it.... AND OF COURSE BUY IT!
please help this year be bigger and better off the field than we all hope it will be on the field.

Ill let blackmac set the deadline, but getting things in ASAP is always helpful!

Thanks to everyone who has supported the zine in the past.
I hope to one day be able to return to the editors role, but hopefully blackmac can take it beyond my capabilities and it outgrows me!

Just thought I would put this hear for the photographers of the foz.

I am editing the Jetstream this season, and am planning on doing something a bit different for the centerfold. I want to start putting a photo essay in there. So basically if you wanted to be part of this get in contact. We print in A5 black and white. So the number of images is up to you however it has to fit in that size, and it has to look good in black and white (photographers that pre edit the photos to be in black and white so I can see what they look like get extra points).

Would also require 20-50 words on why you have chosen to do the photo essay the way you did and why you chose those shots.

Preferences for photos: None really. If you can get a good group of photos together and convince me with a little spiel then I will publish it.


Thanks in advance.

Has there been a "where are they now?" section in the past? Surely an interview with a past Jets hero (or just Jets player, even the non-heroes) wouldn't be too hard to come by.

Blackmac79
27-11-2012, 07:35 PM
Ok. The first issue this season will be out on the 8/12.

Need articles asap.

Will take anything. However don't promise to print it.

alright carnts - your mission before friday is to write an article on ANYTHING jets-related and submit it to blackmac.

MFKS - write a yoof article (don't tell me you can't write an article, half your posts are novel-length)

body - write an away days article

russjaybee - write an article about the deep depression you experience by being both a jerks & arsenal supporter

grimario - write an article about how you see the atmosphere of the game from non-active-support

someone - write a eulogy for griff or something

anyone - write about the positive impact a legit marquee has had on the club

anyone else - write about your views on gary's system

cmon guys - we need everyone to chip in. tifo aside, the jerkstream is one of the best things we as supporters have done in recent years. people love it. but blackmac needs help!

Haven't been to many games of late so a bit hard to do a review on one. Heads not that clear today. Any ideas on a Yoof related piece to get me started and I will see what I can come back with

pv4
02-01-2013, 12:49 PM
idea for you, colonel:

the future jets - what we have got up our sleeves

kale bradberry: striker. great goal poacher, and although his tiny build can challenge with the bigger lads.
luke remo: left footer, good pace, etc
hoole: rb, learning his trade, etc

do a mini-writeup on each player, how you see them, and assess who you think is ready for hal now, who you think will be soon, and who you think will be back in state league before you know it.

you seem to have enough of a grasp on most players abilities, and opinion to go with that.

nice

didn't know whether youd be keen on the idea or not. cool beans. Blackmac will either use it as is, edit it a fair bit, ask you to elaborate/rewrite or he won't use it.

feel free to write more if you're keen & have any other ideas.

parksey
07-01-2013, 11:15 PM
it's more of a story about how the band was formed and who is in it etc.

will see what bm79 thinks.

Blackmac79
08-01-2013, 08:40 AM
Would work well as a fictional series parksey if your keen to keep it going over a number of issues. The more you write the more I can chop it up and use as much or as little as a like in each issue. Would love to use a satirical fiction based on the jets though.

parksey
08-01-2013, 10:55 AM

18-09-2013, 06:14 PM
Book reviews, movie reiews etc etc are great for the zine to use as colum filler, if lengthy articles take up space then a a book review can be bumped to next issue easily.

The more book review etc the better, Blackmac will need a stockpile of articles that aren't necessarily based on current events.

Anyone interested in submitting an article please get in contact.

Would love to hear from anyone who have been to an FA cup game or equivilant elsewhere in the world.

Also off season speculation. Up coming season expectations. Active or normal support thoughts.

As usual articles only need tenuous links to football.

Issue will be no. 28
