is well entrenched with the group.

Among those that deserved a premiership medal and is part of the NMFC conditioning team.

Wasn't sure where to put this, as I couldn't find a general non-footy off-topic thread but anyway, wanted to invite any Doggies over to to a game I'm running over in another section of the forums.

If you've ever played any of the social deduction games that are pretty popular these days (ie the party game Mafia or the variations of Werewolves or the online game Town of Salem), it's similar to those but adapted for forums. Basically there's a day phase and night phase each 24 hours with most of the action/discussion happening during the day phase.

There is a nice little community of people over there that play in the games we run pretty often. There's strategy, there's banter, there's competitiveness, there's melts and it's mostly a lot of fun.

The game will start Sunday evening and runs for about 4 or 5 days and if you're interested you can sign up in this thread, which also includes more details on the rules and how the game works:

Werewolf - BEaston - Basic WW Part II

Basic WW Part II Points of note: Signups close Sunday 10th March 8pm, game to start that night at Night 1. Role list will be determined once sign ups close and player list is confirmed. Please note phase times (9.30am to 9.30pm VIC BIAS time each day) Failure to vote in any Day phase will...

I can only recognise two of these ... and that's only because of their headgear.

Time to give the design job to an artist instead of the work experience kid.

Concussion and/or legal cases involving the WB might merit a thread of their own at some stage.
But for now I'll just put this here. It's an interesting move from the AFL and one that might actually help us for once.

The AFL is seeking to have all matters dealt with in a single class action, and produced a table for the court highlighting the similarities between the various actions.

Nothing against Bullgod Picko BTW. He put his body on the line over and over again for the club. I hope he gets all the support and professional treatment he needs.

AFL faces years of litigation over ‘messy’ concussion lawsuits, court hears

League is defending two class actions and separate Liam Picken case, with Justice Andrew Keogh suggesting matter is ‘12 months from trial’

He was a great Bulldogs man Geoff and played a big role in the Fightback campaign in 1989.

Fun Fact: our three teams (AFL, VFL and VFLW) have all finished the round in seventh place. Hope they all improve as they will never win a premiership from that position...

In honour of probably VDMs best game in a dogs shirt. Can you think of any other Dogs players that were generally thought to not be up to it early on, and then managed to carve out a decent career?

Eagleton comes to mind.

Good for him he ended up with 3 ? flags but not with us

Matthew Boyd?

Yeah, I agree. This is usually always my answer when this question pops up.

As a kid, I had the 2002 team poster on my wall. Matthew Boyd was in the front row next to Leigh Harrison. I recall telling a few of my teammates at the time that Matthew Boyd is the worst player on our list and Leigh Harrison would be a star.

In hindsight, I couldn't have been further from the truth. And I really only made that observation after watching a couple of Werribee's matches in the VFL.

18 senior games (4, 12, 1, 1) and a heap of reserve games in 4 years under Mick Malthouse.

At that point, most Dogs fans had him pegged as severely limited and lucky to still be on the list.

Then Wheels comes in and recognises an on ball beast. A Brownlow first year in and included in the Team of the Century.

And the fastest recovery on record from an ACL!
