Something to boast about?

Re: Something to boast about?

Unfortunately my wife reminded me that things that are heavier fall faster so that took the wind out of my sails.

No. You won fair and square.


Galileo proved it, ( d ∝ t 2 )

He derived the correct kinematical law for the distance travelled during a uniform acceleration starting from rest—namely, that it is proportional to the square of the elapsed time

The Evil One (known to others as my ex-wife, in one of her Not-Entirely-Evil-Moments) bought me a Bulldogs '54-style guernsey from Sherwood Knitting Mills, embroidered with the '54 Premiership Team on the back, and signed by Charlie Sutton.

Also, my inheritance (when my mum passes on, hopefully not soon) is a set of cufflinks worn by Charlie to the '54 best and fairest that he gave my grandfather. So that's a future boast.

Priceless, wasnt it? I've still got the scar. Those monday nights were lot's of fun.


They might have been non-contact but we still copped a few injuries. Didnt SS do his knee? I ended up speding a night in hospital that time I sprained my ankle.

I got retired by my surgeon

Oh my God, I would KILL for that hand-drawn picture of Bob Murphy's dog. And you clearly don't deserve to keep it, if you think his name is "Walter"!!!

The funniest part about that is that it says "Arthur" on the picture. Twice.

Well spotted. I guess it hard to be familiar with it whilst its buried under a pile of clothes at the back of my wardrobe.

My kids have a book about Walter the dog. Thats where the confusion came from.

"...buried under a pile of clothes..." !!!

I am speechless.

I was struggling to lift for 2 weeks after an accidental knee to the ribs.

Re: Something to boast about?

For Christmas 2008 my husband bought me a Brad Johnson 330 game guernsey, went to Bulldogs training & had it signed (which is awesome as he's a Hawthorn supporter!!) and then had it framed. All this without me suspecting a thing, I was most surprised!!

Great present Suz, especially when it was a surprise.

When I started this thread, I was mainly referring to presents or surprises, however, further to this, does anyone have Bulldog number plates that would have significant meaning, or would be most sought after?
ie. WOOF 1.

Re: Something to boast about?

This was a 40th birthday present from my brother inlaw. So if you see a silver Territory driving around give it a wave. It will probably be the wife as she drives it the most.

l assume eveyone has worked out the number - Chris Grant total games.

Brother inlaw just purchased himself Brad Johnson total games for his silver Territory.

We do get a few strange looks if we are following each other somewhere!

His doesn't look as good with the locusts!

Re: Something to boast about?

They both look fantastic!! And what a great idea, getting Chris Grants & Brad Johnsons games as the numbers. Well done!!

Re: Something to boast about?

My car is playing up and I've had to borrow my dad's.


He has had a huge sticker made that say's "Western Bulldogs, "sorry Akka but they no not what they have done" and stuck it to the back bumper. And I mean BIG!!!! It would be four or five foot long(how long is a bumper bar?) and 18 inches high.

Re: Something to boast about?

Love the locusts but shouldn't the netting be behind the number plate????
Also love the number plates.
