Not Worth A Thread - Random Bulldog Discussion

[Del165892]

My son is doing some research in the history of the Footscray area. Just some interesting little scraps he has found out.
We were the first club to come up with a song, and the song meant a lot as we were the salt marsh boys, so it was derived from Sons of the Seas.
The boys from the West constantly would beat the silver spooners, which would mean rules would be created to keep them out, ie cricket. So the recent story about Footscray taking the the red white and blue colours to support the Footscray rowing club that was excluded was true.
Our club is older than both Hawthorn and Norf.

If people are interested I will add the other little scraps that come up.

Please make a thread about this. I think we would all.enjoy that.

I know my overpriced hipster restaurants that sell cheap food for more than double what it's worth.

You know what, walked past Biggie's once, looked at the menu. Nothing at all took my fancy tbh. So it looks as though you and i are complete opposites then

Not really I have never eaten there precisely because if I'm going to have a kebab I'm not paying 20 bucks.

Very newb question. Am trying to buy public access tickets to Sydney vs. Richmond next week at the G but there are basically only tickets available online on level 1 near the goal.

Hoping to spend a bit more and get level 2 wing seats. Is this possible and how do I go about getting them? Best to buy at the venue on the night?

Cheers

Robbo's ladder from the last 18 home and away rounds has us 3rd with the highest %. The build is real and sustainable. The drink is a beast.

We collectively regularly lament the 'second favourite team' moniker on this board, if BigFooty is any indication of the real world and of course it is, then we are not going to have to concern ourselves with what to me has always been a patronising and altogether unwanted term for very long.

Dive in fellas, the water is warm, if somewhat salty.

Yeah I know, but they're that far ahead of themselves, their noses are in Barcelona.

I was reading it and wondering which drug they were on.... Then realized they are serious! Oh my!

So Mattdoogie has been suspended for like two weeks now. WTF. I'm assuming it's because he told the Norfies to go walk into oncoming traffic. But come on TWO WEEKS?! It's been long enough. Let him back in. Jong is gone this week. I wanna see him smiling again.

The fact that we need to dedicate a huge wall of posts and back-and-forths in every single preview thread just because of one poster's personal disdain for a player of ours makes this a welcome relief.

Dogs played Giants, Dees and Pies in the preseason - the same teams as our next three opponents.

Tough games coming up. Dees are flying. Giants are flying. Pies could go BANG any week now...

Bans are done on points aggregate. 5 points is one week, 10 is 2, 15 is 3, 20 is permanent. He got over 10, so it's 2.

Was thinking about it but not sure if I can get out of work.

MD is back and his first post is an absolute delight. He has obviously spent the last two weeks reflecting and is ready to recant past sins.
