Re: New Members
Hello to all on this warm day in Melbourne.
Hope this post finds you all well
Finally got around to joining WOOF and I am looking forward to reading, posting, venting, celebrating and everything that comes with following this great club.
I was born in the Northern suburbs of Melbourne surrounded by Collingwood, Collingwood and more Collingwood, Richmond and Carlton supporters mainly .
My late father worked in Footscray and my oldest brother made the connection between the suburb dad worked at and the football team he saw on The Winners and so the love for Footscray/Western Bulldogs started for me and all of my extended family.
Since my oldest brother started to follow Footscray every single sibling and cousin that came after him followed his lead.
All my 5 children follow the Dogs as do all my cousins, nephews and nieces that were born after my eldest brother.
I really enjoyed the 1980's loved the guernsey the old Western Oval had some great memories of that period but I still get a thrill out of the side today.
2016 We will all never forget!

Re: New Members
Welcome Dishlickers - a Bulldog through and through.
Went down to the club today to return a few things and the place is almost unrecognisable with all the construction happening. Who would have thought we would be developing the ground like this went standing in front of the old John Gent or Whitten stand. Some great memories in the 80s.
Although that may change with the development at the Barkly Street end.Leave a comment:

Re: New Members
Happy Tuesday folks.
Joining from the Gold Coast.
Born & raised in Brisbane but 4th generation doggies fan going back to my great grandad.
Got a good feeling about the year ahead.
If the new talls at each end can fire & we can keep a clean bill of health, things could get spicy.
Thx for having me

Re: New Members
Greetings all,
Its been sometime since I’ve visited WOOF.
I was born, raised and still reside in Perth. My Dad is Victorian however so from a young age we only followed the VFL and have been a Dogs man since 1985. Love the club, loved attending the GF in Perth even with the disappointment of losing. I’m raising 4 young and very loyal bulldogs loving children.
Really excited this year, I think we are in for a massive chance. I love watching the games each week, but I also love discussing list management and building through the draft.
looking forward to contributing moving forward.
Cheers
Take care and welcome.Leave a comment:
