Re: New Members

I've posted a bit already, but am fairly new to WOOF. Had a bit of a hard time joining, but that's a story for another day…

I've been a member of a few different Dogs forums over the years, and they always degenerate into either a social network or a trolling ground, so I've been pretty happy with WOOF so far.

I'm a lifelong Doggie, from a strong family tradition of following the ’Scray — My kids are the 6th generation to wear the red, white and blue. Love all football, of course I'm biased towards a Bulldogs game but I'm just as happy watching Richmond vs Adelaide, or even the local boys. Anywhere with a Sherrin in the air…

If you're at a game, I'm usually behind the cheer squad, especially at Jihad Stadium. I'm a CS member but swear and drink a bit too much to sit there all the time. My name's Ryan, I'm 6'4", I wear a “dreadlocks beanie” and an old ICI guernsey from 1992, so you'll see me — come and say howdy…

Sorry for errors. I don't have practice to speak and to read in English.

No apology necessary - your English is very good. Welcome to WOOF!!

Re: New Members

Thanks TCD I am from Chile and oddly enough I don't really follow any team (besides one in Chile called Universidad de Chile). I love watching teams like Barcelona or Arsenal play but I wouldn't be kicking myself if they didn't win their respective leagues unlike.........

Would be awesome to see UdC play live. I was in Chile last October, luckily was in Santiago when Chile beat Columbia to qualify. It was pure madness for the whole night and one of the best experiences of my life, watching the game on the bigscreen just off Plaza de Armas & partying for hours afterwards.

I've got to say, it's great that you are able to watch and enjoy our game. Very interesting to read about how you've come across the game too.

Re: New Members

I have noticed that there seems to be an influx of new members to WOOF over recent weeks.

That's very encouraging & recognition should go out to go to the mods & regular contributors for setting up this site & keeping it functioning in a decent manner.

Welcome aboard newbies & hope you enjoy this site.

As long as it maintains it's high standards I'm sure you will.

Won't be that long till member #100 joins.

Thanks Coon Dog!

Your the reason I'm here. Doggie Doggie Doggie!!!

Re: New Members

It's great to have a few new folk signing up. Southerncross, Dry Rot, Twodogs and myself try and contact all the new people with a welcome letter but it would be great if all the new folk would post something here first.

Well has Big Will done enough to get back in???

I think so.

Re: New Members

How did you get to be a fan of Australian football? I can't imagine that it would be on prime time TV in Vilnius.

It's not problem to watch Aussie Rules now. The first time when I watched the moments of the matches of AFL was Gillete Sport Special. But it was more that 10 years ago.
Later I had opportunity to watch FOX Sport. Now AFL is on Eurosport TV 2. Also it's possible to snatch matches by net. So it's not problem. Of course here are not specialists who understand Aussie Rules. I can watch only with English or Russian comments on TV. I know some people who like Aussie Rules.
So it's not problem to watch.

Re: New Members

Welcome IR,

Where are you originally from & which 'soccer' team do you follow?

Thanks TCD I am from Chile and oddly enough I don't really follow any team (besides one in Chile called Universidad de Chile). I love watching teams like Barcelona or Arsenal play but I wouldn't be kicking myself if they didn't win their respective leagues unlike.........

Re: New Members

I love watching them in basketball at the Olympics.

Yes, Basketball is No.1 here. Some Australian played basketball for Lithuanian clubs. Aussie Rules are not played here, but I like to watch very much.

Hi All!
I'm big fan of AFL, but Live in Europe. One day I will go Australia to watch AFL in the stadium. Aussie Rules is fantastic game. Western Bulldogs was one of the first teams, which I watched on video. The first match was WB v Essendon. I want to ask, are here fans who could help me with any pin of Western Bulldogs? I would send you some for exchange. Thanks

Welcome aboard.

Where in Europe are you?


We don't really have pins like they do in the US.
