I desperately want Bob to play on and even more desperately want him to hold up the 2017 cup. There is no other team nor player I would wish this for. I have had the good fortune of meeting Bob several times thru a mutual mate. He is all class. Everyone assumes he is a terrific fella and they...

Thank heavens for some common sense. If you are not in the firsts and you are fit enough to play, you are in the seconds. Couldn't be more simple. The rules are the same in every comp all round the country.

No player's name will ever be tarnished in my eyes. Hird, Little etc however, their names are a different story.

Excuse me coming on here. Only did so to see how my 'local' team got on today against a hated foe. Please allow my 2 bobs worth. A club with a successful/winning culture can afford to bottom out. A club without a S/W culture simply cannot. The culture at the Dogs in recent years has in...

There are claims now that Bombers are prepared to move heaven and earth to get Griffen. Means he doesnt have to leave Melb where he is obviously quite happy. Do not let this happen.:mad: Storm the club if you have to. Just do whatever it takes if this becomes a possibility/reality.

I look forward to the party's :)

I probably should have seen what was coming in relation to my post. Had no intention of getting up anyones nose. I merely responded to a comment made by a dogs supporter in relation to a long term supporter who does not buy memberships due to the supposed torment that the club had put him...

First of all the team I support is irrelevant. Its just an observation from someone who lives and works in the area, and furthermore, someone who actually cares. Secondly, I feel no pity. If I feel anything its anger at the apathy of those who dont buy the memberships and dont attend...

I've lived and worked in the west for over 20 years and love the dogs as much as anyone who doesnt barrack for them can. I know loads of people who wear the colors and go to the odd game, but DONT support the club via membership. They can afford to, but choose not to, and sadly it seems to be...

For 2 or 3 years Hawk fans urged the club to draft Markovic but alas it never happened. I was thus happy for him to be picked up by you guys. With Morris out and Lake under a bit of a cloud is he chance to crack it for his first game? I really thought he might have been given a chance at...

These calls come from pure hope and desperation because it so rarely happens!:thumbsd: Early rain probably turned a few away but should have been a 55k crowd given it's importance and Fri timeslot.

Travelled to and from the game with a Dog mate tonight. He had Higgins bags packed to GC on the way and had bought him his airline ticket by the time we got home. I've always really rated him, but obviously dont watch as closely as you lot.

Good work guys. Now get those membership numbers up and really take it to the comp!:thumbsu:

Would you care as much if the vcictim was some dog player who played less than a handful of games? Would you even remember the incident? Terry Wheeler is a legend of your club but is remembered for grabbing opponents plums more than anything else. Dont get me started on the only Brownlow...

Hope you guys win tonight, and again on last day of Sept (provided not playing us - which is pretty unlikely) The club deserves it and the region deserves it. Bring it on. I want to go to the party's.;)

I was just thinking today how much Ward reminds me of Hodge. Particularly the way he goes about it. Local Yarraville boy too which makes it more special.

I think most footy purists think this way. All the same it astounds me how many people call him a soft possie gatherer, dirty etc

As a longtime resident and longer time worker of the wonderful west I just want to say that I will be rooting for you guys more than I have ever rooted for a team other than my own. Furthermore you might like to know that there was a poll on our board relative to who we want to win now that...

Popped on to your board to start a positive thread, but beforehand I need to clear this up. Jeff does not think Cross or the pie player should be suspended. He was just trying to highlight the stupidity of Anderson's rule change. Both players had the opportunity to avoid contact, didnt, and...

Hopefully he's a hawk:) Be crazy to let him go!

Get behind it Doggy fans!! Let your club know about it too. If they know the members are up for it they will fight harder for it. You could get local sponsors on board for the day.(maybe even V line!) Charter buses with lunches and the like involved.etc As mentioned its better than Canberra or...

Fantastic stuff.:thumbsu: Worthy winner and loved his interview. Very refreshing. Sounds pretty down to earth (like most of us out here in the west:p). Loved the grimace from the charismaless and very dull Ablett when he didnt poll in the last round.

This attitude is a huge problem for your football club. Apathetic supporters. Similar attitudes cross over into not bothering with memberships as well. Saddens me as a member of the community out here. Next weeks game is the most important game for you to attend in the history of your doggy...

Seriously you dont want to be goin there. Injury prone and no good on the 1st or 2nd defender. Would be lucky to get 30 goals out of him. Go hard for Pavlich

What John said! Especially the bit about equity and playing fields. When the hawks win i'm 100% happy, but when it s the dogs we beat I'm only about 99%.;) All the best guys, and take it easy on me in the streets of Yarraville win lose or draw.

Defeats the purpose a bit I suppose but I'm sure you'll be able to get general adm on Wed to sit with your (more intelligent;))mates. Wouldnt try it at later finals though.

You need to be able to play it yourself to teach others. Trust me. Do not go near this guy. You need someone to kick 60+ Not an injury prone 30 yr old who has never bettered low 50's.

Think it was a mixture of limp, strapping, caution, boggy ground. Although sad to see it was very admirable. Whatever the case though, could only imagine minimal impact off the bench at the very best.

Hopefully this attitude is not reflective of the Dogs in general. Otherwise the future is not bright at all.

Not sure if it will make you feel better but Hawks got pantsed by rabble saints in a similar fashion the week before having the better of the cats (but still losing). Our positions on the ladder are pretty safe. We dont know what the coaches get up to relative to how heavy they keep the foot on...
