    How amazing are our supporters?

    So I flew down from Qld for the GF and was going to the game solo. I went to Beer Dekixe before the game but struggled in the crowd to find any woofers.

    So I checked the forum and ended up having beers with a bloke who flew in from Scotland, another from WA and a local. Sorry boys in my shock I can't remember your forum handles.

    Yes our supporters are great. They came yesterday to the Whitten Oval from far and wide.

      Post game, the exhilaration of victory running through our veins... Three blokes standing behind me hugged and high fived me, and even insisted I be in their photos. Maybe they saw I was by myself - although arguably I was with tens of thousands of my friends!

        We ran amok in Beer Deluxe post game. Singing etc was off the charts. Blokes standing on tables, climbing on the bar.

          Yeah post game in beer deluxe was epic. 1eyedog was the local snoop. Jazzadogs from Bonnie Scotland and Scraggers from W.A. nicer guys you could not meet.
          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

            The supporters on Woof are great! We woofers have shared some highs and lows over the years. Redemption for loyalty. Thanks for all your posting musings everyone. A season to remember.

              It was an honour to have started the game day thread for our Grand Final and doing the best on ground thread for WOOF.

                Didn't realise there were so many woofers at Beer Deluxe. A group of us including my family arrived a little later but had a ball welcoming other dog supporters as they arrived....including a very happy sister of Lin Jong.

                Caught up with Rocco Jones and met a bloke who had his hair cut in pure Disco Libba style. Great atmosphere, lots of beer and lots of shots.
                I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                  Ive still only met soupaman so far and I'm sure a lot of you were at Whitten Oval on Sunday but just way to difficult to find anyone even if we wanted to.

                    Missed post game but pre game was a great catch up. BAD, Sedat, Cyberdoggie, MJP (who I hadn't seen in years) and even caught up with Chops and Sockeye.

                    Then ran into Firstdog on the walk to the G.

                    Plus dozens of other old friends who I crossed paths with either at or enroute to the ground.

                    Really was a great day.

                          My sister in Law came running up to me saying Libba is at the bar.
                          I said, I know he is one crazy cat, be there is no way he would be at Beer Deluxe.
                          This must have been who she was talking about.

                            I was at beer deluxe after the game too. It was a bit subdued at first but once the dj played the song it was awesome. Probably would have talked to a few woofers without even knowing it. I was the twat with the yellow baseball cap. What an amazing night.

                              Just had a beer or two at home but probably should have went to Beer Deluxe where most woofers were.
