Just Another Philosophical Thread

He seems to be getting his just deserts now, as is my brother who changed to Carlton as an eight year old.

[GVGjr]

he certainly kicks better than his old man!

You know Chris?

[GVGjr]

Nice kick, does seem to put a bit of air under it at times but looks like a type we will need coming through in a couple of years.

I am very, very suss on anyone who makes their own 10-minute highlight package though.

Done by a mate at the request of a club. Otherwise I would agree.

he was a pretty good footballer at school level. went to the same school for a couple of years

I guess we have to cut an eight year old a bit of slack, but a 38 year old - no way. He said to me once in the 90s "Gee, the Dogs are going well."
"Pity you don't barrack for them anymore." was my terse reply.

[Twodogs]

Wow. That's pretty low. Essendon.

One of my relos decided she would barrack for North back in the 70s. We don't see them anymore.

Whenever my daughter gets married, her husband better be a doggies supporter, or he better not make her change, and grandchild MUST be doggies supporters. I will make sure and influence them.

Looks pretty good on the footage but I'm wary of picking up a state league smokie after the Matt Fuller experiment turned into an utter bust.

It's also tied into my aversion to left footed South Australian flankers which is my I'm hoping we steer clear of Riley Bonner.

Living in Bendigo you don't often meet Bulldog supporters but whenever I see someone wearing Bulldog colours I always talk to them. I've never been brushed off. There's always an instant rapport and it comes from knowing that we are not just your common garden football supporters. We are more than that. We are for real. Anyone can jump on a bandwagon for a free ride. We've been pushing the bandwagon down the road, up the hill, digging it out of the sand, freeing it from the mud, putting the wheels back on and mending the axles. And we'll keep on doing it until we reach our destination. Why? Because that's who we are and that's what we do.
When I tied my heart to the Bulldog's wagon it was for keeps.

Hang around The All Seasons Hotel like a groupie. They're Stringers player sponsor and he's known to frequent and spend time chatting with the bulldog faithful.

I love the concept BAD but take it from me a lot easier said than done. I have 3 daughters "all" with husband/boyfriends following other teams. Two following Hawthorn and one Geelong. Despite threats about leaving them out of my Will they won't listen.

When it comes to who follows what team I am hoping force of personality, love of the product and dirty lowdown threats will carry the bulldog argument for me.

I started here first Twodogs. Maybe I should have left it to last.

A threat is only as good as the intention to do it. Next family dinner hold it at The Slater & Gordon boardroom, catered and and have a lawyer do a power point presentation of your proposed new will and testament followed by a highlight package of Jake Stringer. When they rush to join as Bulldogs For Life you can send me a bottle of Grange!

Well said merantau. Were you overseas before Bendigo in Indonesia? Any Doggies people over there?
