    True thanks Axe.

        Just looking at some stats and unfortunately it's still a steep decline each year

        During the month of March we started by having about 80 WOOF members logging on each day but the last week of the month we were down to just 60 people logging on and viewing the site. The volume of discussions are still mainly being generated by a small but highly enthusiastic group. Interesting is some people are logging on multiple times during the day (8 to 10 times) but they aren't necessarily contributing to discussions.

        If I'm reading this trend correctly, and without footy being played to help generate discussions, it could get very quiet by the end of the month.

          What's the baseline G for a decent month? Do you have the stats for when things were reasonable when footy was on, but things were not going well on field? Let's say for instance, half way through last year?

          I know it's tough mate.

            I'll have another look at it. Normally we have about 120 WOOF members logging on most days during the season but that can be as high as 170. 120 members are still logging on but there are about 40 not logging as regularly. It's a bit moot anyway because typically they're not contributing to discussions except for the odd one from time to time.
            I thought with more people home it might have kicked up a bit but it's perhaps trending the other way

              According to a medical friend of mine the tsunami of coronavirus cases will hit in June so May is out when we start footy...if we do at all this year.

                      Looks like he just saw Neil Balme naked.

                          Did you see him on C7 news just now? He looked like the Ancient Mariner yelling at people at weddings.
