At 17, I was in love with 'Dutchy'! I had the opportunity to get a photo with him after a match at Waverley Park against the Lions (think it might've been ANZAC day)...was such a nice guy and stuck around to chat to the fans that stayed back and waited for the players to come out and sign...
Do you really think the AFL will allow the two teams to play matches in Tas? Maybe in the short term to complete contract agreements, but long term - they don't want Hawthorn playing in Launceston, they want to re-locate the Kangaroos there and give Tasmania their own club (without creating a...
That was 20+ years ago! Maybe time for some NEW ideas...s*hits me when North supporters keeps referring to the "Friday night games that are rightfully theirs!" Time to move on! We had our home games at Waverley, and the AFL kicked us out. We had to find new ways for cash to come into the...
Hi Aker2008,
Welcome and hope you do get a chance to particpate in an 'organised, proper' competition in '08.
The main issues we've experienced while playing this game, is the Competition Organisers (in the Western Suburbs); they don't know much about the game, umpiring and also updating...
Hi Raw Toast - Hawk4Life here...(Rising Phoenix) :) :(
Bad luck on the finals result, but well done to the Yeah Nah's and the BF Bulldogs for being great sports this season.
I've just read some of your posts and had a few queries regarding the life of Rec Footy in the future...
1) The...
Hi All,
Update from Lauren:
===================================
We have finally been able to find a ground to host rec footy this season! Due to the Whitten Oval redevelopment and the oval being off limits, we have been able to secure the ground at Dinjerra Primary School, South Road...
Our team is thinking the same thing.
However, apart from Sandringham there doesn't seem to be much going on in the West (i.e Carlton, Preston etc). Struggling to get a contact name for any co-ordinators....it's not looking to hopeful... :(
Update: from Lauren
****
I am having trouble securing an oval, Maribyrnong and Brimbank council
have nothing I can use.
If we can't find an oval the season won't be running, but hopefully I
can!

Cheers onslaught...i've tried to contact Lauren Sanford but have had no luck. I was told she is still the co-ordinator for this year.
They have had issues finding a ground - not likely to be at the Whitten Oval due to the re-development works going on there....hope they get a ground.
I...
Hi All - Just wondering if there's a Rec Footy season this year at Whitten Oval? Usually there's some information re registration around now and an October season start? Cheers. H4L

On implulse....I decided to book a day trip flight of the Round 17 Match in Tassie against the Kangaroos....Arrive in Launceston at 9.35am....flight leaves Launceston at 4.35pm same day..
It's cutting it real fine, but the Match is a 1:10pm start so I have an hour to get back to the Airport...
Hi Again - was hoping to Bump this in the hope of making it a sticky...
To answer the previous question - I'm not in a team yet. I have a friend who also plays, and we're trying to talk some friends into joining this comp. But I guess we'll just join any team that is trying to make up...
Hi All,
Just wondering if there is a thread on the Bigfooty Bulldogs Forum for the upcoming Season of Rec Footy at the Whitten Oval? I've played the last two seasons, and there's normally a running thread on here...
Here are the details: I hope people are planning on playing this season...
Clarko, whilst a Rookie, hasn't done too much wrong so far, and compared to Wallet, isn't costing us a fortune.
We beat Freo at Aurora, all we can do is beat our opponents on the day! We take the 4 points and move on...Tell me, did you 'expect' to beat the Bulldogs?
As I said, time will...
Smartest comment I have read on this post.
And before you accuse me of trolling on your boards, the comment is purely to do with the decision to sign on Terry Wallet for 5 years!!?? - RFC may be going through a re-building phase, but is he the right person to coach the Tigers through this...
One suggestion to consider for later this year... (and yes I have posted this b4)
When Hawthorn sends you an email about completing a survey sometime mid to late in the year - make sure you stress the importance of wanting to have your memberships as soon as possible. They know they have to...
Hi All,
For those who are interested, the results and ladder are on the Bulldogs website:

Hi All,
I just came across this thread and thought I'd introduce myself. I have decided to give this a go, and joined with my friend, so we'll be there tomorrow night. Please go easy on us, as we are not as experienced as all of you. :) We are part of the individual team (we must change that...
What a joke! This is unfair....
Likelyhood will be that Trev wins....
I've lost all respect for this show....someone who slips under the radar, has done nothing in terms of entertainment for the whole series is about to become a millionaire.........
To be fair to Neale Daniher, Melb have played finals every second year, so if they were weighing it up, they'd give him the benefit of the doubt. Goes to show that track record does count for something...And they did get to a grand final.
What I'd do to see Hawthorn play in a Grand Final.... :(
Re: Schwabby
How can you compare to Melbourne...they have made finals more times than Hawthorn under their respective coaches. Melbourne have played finals nearly every second year!!! Schwab has had 5 years; during that time drafting players that he thought would win a premiership! How can...
