Congrats to the Coondogg! Is by far our most important & dangerous player if we are going to have a crack at it in 2009.

Agree 100% I've got about 15-20 acquaintances that are attending the Saints Vs Hawks game rather than the Dogs Vs Cats game as they expect a better contest for the Saturday night fixture. From a neutral supporters perspective tonight's game looks more appealing.

As I've posted in another thread, I thought it was one of the most vocal Footscray crowds I've been involved with. We were outnumbered but not out voiced. We needed one more goal to really get the crowd into a frenzy. The Harbrow snap ignited the crowd, just needed one more. ****en...

Has it? If you're making an assessment of Cooney when he was playing with a fractured knee cap & a cold then you are deluded. Cooney was poor by his standards, however, lets keep in mind he was severely restricted + had ling molesting him at every stoppage. Cooney has had by the far the...

Re: Don't except this as "A good effort" Good post. I was listening to SEN on the way home and everyone was texting / SMS with potential KPP options from other clubs. Haven't we been burnt enough in the past? I am more inclined to go down the develop our own path. I am hopeful that...

Re: You Tube Videos Of The Bull Dogs ! Could someone upload a few of the goals from last nights game (Higgo (x2), Aker, Harbrows snap). Despite the fact that we were outnumbered I thought the the Footscray supporters were the most vocal & passionate I've seen in a long time, which is to be...

Re: You Tube Videos Of The Bull Dogs ! Thanks for that. Was going to start a thread asking someone to put these goals up + Johnson, Akermanis & Big Will cutting sick in the 3rd. Love the crowd response to Lakes goal. Great stuff Doggies supporters.

Wight is not that target. Next...

Absolutely love watching this bloke play. A couple of times tonight he chased 100+ metres to put pressure on &/or lay a tackle. Brilliant stuff!

*Cough* *Sniffle* I can feel a cold coming on....

Really? Well, where was everyone tonight? Too windy? Disillusioned? For **** sake, it was an elimination final and we could barely muster 25,000 fans at the game. Agree with all of the above.

Regardless of what happens next week, in my eyes 2008 has been a raging success. Agree or disagree? I was concerned that a defeat tonight coupled with the dismal win:loss record over the last 8 weeks would put a real dampener on what had started as a real positive season. With the win...

That should be the attitude from the faithful. Not the response we got tonight (re: turnout). Anyhow, hopefully the win tonight will lure back the supporters who have dropped off over the past 8 weeks. VERY

I am. I can't ****en wait! We are in the prelim; lap it up and enjoy. Lets turn out in big numbers Footscray faithful.

Looks like the past 8 weeks, and in particular last weeks debacle kept a ton of the Scray faithful away. Pretty disappointing turnout considering it was an elimination final, and lets be honest we don't exactly venture into the 2nd week of the finals all that often. Anyhow, for those that...

Agreed. I'll be there (x3). In regards to posters who have said there will be a drop off, I think our post round 15 form impacted on the Dogs support on Friday Vs Hawks. I was disappointed with the Footscray turnout on Friday night. Probably would have just nudged 30,000 there. Hoping...

west V bundy what a GF it will be!! who will win!?? west i say!!!:thumbsu:

Guarantee we will get over 50,000+ to the game.

I'll second that. Enjoyed the read.

You're dreaming. Would probably get 50,000+ at the G'.

I'm going. Despite being absolutely gutted by the insipid display last night, I will back up. What disturbs me more is the fact that 'some' Doggies fans have already given up on the year prior to the Hawks game if the display of red, white and blue at the G' was anything to go by. It was...

I'd assume it refers to the number of tickets sold today.

Sounds like the young pup goes alright with the mits... Not that I am condoning what happened in any way, just making an observation from the above posts. PS: What is it with Dogs Vs Crows and fights. I was nearly involved in an 'incident' at the G' in 06 when we came back from 40 down to win...

Agreed. Refer to 'Who is going Friday night?' thread.

Good response thus far. I have definitely noticed a 'flat' feeling amongst the supporters over the past 6 or so weeks, almost in line with our on field performances. Seems as though Rockets statement about looking ahead to finals had a negative impact on our supporter base and they took it...

I am (x3) Hoping our recent run of indifferent form won't keep long suffering Footscray supporters from attending. We are going to be outnumbered, and they are pretty vocal so we MUST answer the challenge. Use you're voice!

Re: If you haven't got tickets already, forget it!! You're right, the weak at heart Doggies might stay away. However, I'm pretty certain that there will be at least 30,000 Dogs. We had over 35,000 to the Pies final in 06'.

Hoping for a Friday night game from this end. Game should draw 35,000 Dogs Vs 45,000 Hawks + 5,000 Neutral at a guess? If we could draw 85,000 that would be huge. Dreaming?

So very true. Absolutely dominated the midfield / stoppages and the Swans defenders were absolutely overwhelmed with our plethora of forward options. For pure elation it has to be Johnno's 300th. As has been stated before, the Swans & Hawks wins signaled to the football world (including...

Re: Looking ahead! The G' for sure. Maximise crowd and revenue for the AFL. Would get 75,000+ to a Hawks Vs Dogs finals game.
