New posters, introduce yourselves here

[IdiotBox]

Welcome, William are you bringing chocolate with you?

Perhaps William Wonka is the official supplier to the HFC? After all, Clarko is often heard to use the phrase 'get the chocolates' in his pressers.

 

[William Wonka]

Crunchies, Violet Crumbles, Pineapple lumps and Choc Bananas for all.

Hi All,

Hawks supporter living in Newcastle, you will find me yelling at the umpire at most SCG/Spotless matches.

Will be floating around the hawthorn boards.

Cheers,
Allan

Welcome Allan. Is this shouting at the maggots restricted to when the hawks are playing the infidel or just whenever there is a game on?

 

[hawks787]

Hi fellow hawks
Long time reader of big footy, recent new member. Followed the hawks since 1988 as a 10 year old in NSW nrl territory. Lived in Albury past 20 years so thankfully it's become alot easier to keep up with everything hawthorn and afl related. Heading down to the game on friday night, should be interesting either way but hopefully we are the team to really show no mercy againts the bombers
Cheers guys

Non-restricted shouting, however much more heartfelt when the brown and gold take the field!

Welcome aboard, mate...

What made you aware of the hawks, and get on board, deep in NRL turf?

Welcome aboard, mate...

To be honest I'm not really sure. I was bored with NRL and I think I saw something on the news that Dermott did. Being 10 at the time I thought he's pretty cool and hawthorn were having a good year. I guess I'm one of those often talked about fair weathered bandwagon supporters
In my defense I've just turned 38, converted my own 3 kids and I'm currently working on turning new wife & 2 step kids from essendon. Its relatively easy in recent times.

 

[IdiotBox]

My lord hawks787 ! I just hope wife nbr 2 has some other, erm, 'favourable' attributes!
Hopefully tonight's result assists the smooth conversion to righteouness for your loved ones.

Hallelujah brother!

Hi all,

Never posted here in 10 years on bigfooty.

Probably won't post again.

But who knows what the future holds??

 

[burger09]

Hi all.
My apologies for the late introduction. I have no excuse except general social incompetence.
I'm a hawk fan (really?), have been about 35 years.

Have long read this forum and used to, once upon a time post on hawkheadquarters/mightyhawk.

Have held off signing up for physiological reasons. However the three peat tipped me over the edge.

So here I am. Apologies to all in advance for the drivel you may be subject to.

But thanks for providing an outlet. I look forward to the banter and getting to know you fellow hawkers.

 

[Maxie]

Hey people.. hawks fan for 30 years. Member for 18 (missed 4 years in between)
Have been reading this forum since a mate showed me in 2009, finally signed up..
Looking forward to getting involved in some pre and post match conversations..

 

[HARDHITTINGHAWK]

Hey fellow Hawks supporters,

I've been a Hawthorn supporter for over 30 years and been reading BigFooty for a few years now...

I thought that it's time to sign up and interact with all you knowledgeable and insightful individuals here and mingle a little...

Anyway, I am looking forward to getting to know you all and GO HAWKS!!!

 

[Agent Smith]

Well, that worked out...

 

[Tucker1078]

Gday all,

Pop was a long time servent of the Hawks and even before the alliance with Box Hill was heavily involved there. Was shown BF by my mad Saint supporting brother so let's see how it goes.

 

[Dave Id]

Bang!
Another gone like that!

Newbies have suddenly become an endangered species...

 

[MercurialHawk26]

Should have introduced myself a while ago...

Lifelong hawks fan, long time reader of big footy (actually used to have an old unused account that i forgot the password to)

Decided to start posting a couple of months ago.

So hi, and go hawks

 

[Hemmo]

Hi Ladies and gentleman,
I've had an account for years read all the posts but rarely posted.

Im a supercoach and enjoying another era of Hawthorn good times. Started following the Hawks around 1979.

Let the good times continue!

 

[Lotus]

Hi All,

Long time reader, first time poster.

Came to Melbourne 8 years ago as an International student.
Knew nothing about footy, but then it's actually a mixed of all kind of sports.
Have to thanks Channel 7 for the FTA exposure that shows Hawks matches during 2008 seasons.

Am I the ultimate Bandwagon Story ?

Who cares I even attend the NAB challenge game to cheer for the Hawks.

Go Hawks!!!

 

[Irish Hawk]

Hi everyone,the name's a bit of a giveaway.Been following the Hawks from Ireland since I was a 6 year old in 1983.Those Grand finals with Essendon are still fresh in the memory!!Anyway,I'm from the same neck of the woods as Conor Glass and I look forward to following his progress as a Hawk.

Hoping you can fill us all in with detailed info about young Conor.

 

[Irish Hawk]

I don't know Conor personally but I've watched a lot of his GAA matches.He's strong,fast,athletic and was a real leader for his GAA team.Just hope he can adjust quickly to the game and his new surroundings.Someone I do know well,Kyle Coney who signed for the Swans in 2008 just couldn't settle in Australia.I think he only stayed about 6 weeks.

Same thing happened with our last lad, Ciaran Kilkenny.

Hopefully, this Conor, and next year's Conor (Nash) can get settled.

Good to have you on board!
