    Our own WOOF!

    Carlton have has a long history of yelling WOOF when players with booming kicks got the ball. I think it started with Val Perovic and then later with Ang Christou and every time one of them was about to kick the ball the crowd would yell out as one...WOOF.

    I reckon it's something that the Doggies supporters should embrace and my recommendation is that every time Lindsay Gilbee gets the ball our supporters should do the same.
    Is this something that would add a bit to the club, the player and the supporters each week?
    Is there a better candidate in our team?

    I love it when the crowd yells for Cooney and I'd like to see more of it with some other players.

    Does anyone else agree?

    Worth a try but how do we build enough support to be heard?

    OK so the question is who should tell them so they think its their idea. I have no contacts but the CS reminds me of an old stick in the mud boss I once had. Could be persuaded to do anything as long as you pretended it was his idea and gave him whatever glory ensued.

    I'm pretty sure the whole Cooney crowd chant was manufactured but just a handful of passionate supporters.
    The cheer squad is the obvious answer. Gary Munn (or a name like that) plus Dave Porter might be the answer.

    FDOTM could probably rally the troops better than most. Anyone up for contacting the cheer squad and seeing if they would add some support to it?

    Handing out flyers with the instructions before the game might get some more people involved.

    We could make it our own by cheering afterwards too - given Gilbee actually hits targets and not just "makes up distance" with the kick.

    I suppose the suggestion of cheek-flapping to make a sort of weak nautical sound everytime Ryan "Flounder" Griffen gets the ball is just too much to expect of our supporter base?

    I am afraid of the cheer squad. But I am happy to take my clothes off if that will help.

    I've never seen you FDOTM so I'm not sure which of the alternatives frightens me more.

    Great Idea, I think an official note to the Cheer Squad from this website management or to do it.

    You're enormous anyway.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Well who is doing what and when? Very little time to get this organised.
