Just had a look at the full draft that year and the KPP selections by teams high up were all horrible not just ours!!!
Laycock, and Schulz would be other prime examples of top 10 KPP who were / are not that good
IMO the best KPP of that draft is D Merrett for Brisbane who was drafted at no...
Lord Nicholson
Sounds like Essendon of the last 10 years champ!!!!
Now back to the thread, as someone on here said earlier when the dogs are up and playing a quality side we can draw a crowd
case in point
R14 1998 vs ST Kilda at Waverley crowd49,706
R21 1998 vs Essendon MCG, crowd...
Spot on, there was a passage of play up the bulldogs cheersquad end, he was 20 metres out and he clearly tried to run round onto his right foot (smack bang into a Richmond player) when he could have waltzed in run wide of the Richmond player and popped it through on the left!!!!
As it turned...
Why would you take Mick over Eade!!! Without looking at the numbers I reckon Eade would have outcoached Malthouse over the years (last year excepted).
Thank god we don't play at the Western oval anymore. Otherwise if we hired Mick we could all look forward to those 9 goals versus 7 goals...
So Harry get's an exemption but Johnson doesn't you moron!!!
As far as i'm concerned if they were passed fit to play then they should be expected to perform!!!!
I hate to admit it but Johnno just couldn't perform up to his own high standards, but he was out there and didn't do the job...
I'm going to the Vic on Hyde in Yarraville. They always show the foxtel games and they get a few doggie supporters in as well.
I've also been tot he Rifle club in WIlliamstown quite a bit to watch games. Has a good back bar with pletny of room to watch the game!!!
Is this the bulldogs protesting at the fact that he is going to the goldcoast???
Surely he cant miss 2 weeks with a "Virus" ???????
The only consolation, Easton Wood looks like a decent replacement!!!!
ANyone on BF know anything?
I think the dogs will win by a comfortable 5 or 6 goals.
We have an eight day break, we have been doing the Darwin trip for six years now so should be aware of what needs to be done to be at our best for the following weeks game & looking at Willys results there is healthy competition for...
Ha Ha very good.
I've got a mate I go to the football with who reckoned Grant wouldn't get a game and furthermore wouldn't kick a goal while his freckle pointed to the ground!!!!!
Well the joke is on him, so far he has had to do 11 handstands as Grant puts em through the big sticks...
H&A North Melbourne - like some other bulldog posters have already mentioned
Finals: I would like to see us beat the handbaggers just once in a final. I have seen the doggies lose finals to the Catters in 1992 (twice), 1994, 1995 & 2008.
Special mentions to Adelaide 97 & 98 and brisbane 99...
Not a Footscray quote in the true sense but spoken by a great Bulldog legend.
Teddy Whitten when asked by a reporter how he felt after the Vics had just beaten SA in a State of Origin game his reply was "we stuck it up em, that's what we did!!!!" "What a bloody relief" - pure gold
1. Round 21 2000 vs The Bombers Grantys left foot snap from the boundry seals it.
2. Johnno's 300th v Adelaide R1 this year. 3 goals by the champ in the last quarter seals it.
3. Libba's last game vs the Kangaroos Rnd 17 2002. The boys do it for Libba
Why not give Ayce no 1.
From 1976 thru 1994 no 1 was given to a ruckman
1976 Ian "bluey" Hamshire
1983 Andrew Purser
1991 Justin Charles
1994 Illija Grgic
the chain being broken when Simon Minton-Connell was given it 1997
Lets restart the tradition!!!!!!
I'll set the scene
Early 90's Footscray vs Fitzroy. It's blowing a gale straight down the ground towards the Geelong road end. It's also pelting with rain, but because of the wind the rain is coming in at right angles. There are only about 6,000 hardy souls in the crowd so you cant get any...
I distinctly remember Scarlett running through the centre giving off a handball, receiving it back and then having a shot a goal 1st quarter IIRC
Correct me if im wrong
Gee that must hurt, even with all the wins he had during the season.
He was betting $50k a week, but usually at long odds-on. I reckon he is down for the season
Suck sh*t pussies_07_flag
You are now the official knob of the year poster on big footy.
Now slink off back to the hole where you came from you arrogant tool!!!!
Hi everyone, i'm new to this section of BF but now i've found this thread I will keep an eye on it.
Hopefully we can beat Hull tonight in preparation for our clash with the Red Sh*te next sunday.
Go Toffees!!!!!!!
I was very proud of the boys efforts. They had a crack for 4 quarters and were only let down by some poor kicking for goal.
I've seen other posts saying Geelong didn't play well, looked flat etc...., but give the dogs some credit we probably won in the midfield, our defence played...
Are we all forgetting that this is the first time in quite a few years that the majority of the finals have been played in Melbourne.
I thought the attendance last night was reasonable considering this is the first time for a while both prelims have been played in Melbourne.
As someone...
Just anounced on SEN, apparently didn't attend the all-australian awards because of it.
The club is saying he will be alright to play on Friday night.
Sh*t we a need a fully fit coon-dog to have any chance of beating the cats
Melbourne Storm have just been knocked off by the New Zealand Warriors, 8th versus 1st, so to all bullies fans, take heart from that result.
The AFL and NRL have an eerie way of mirroring each other with finals results, one that comes to mind is the NRL grand final was drawn in 1977 as was...
I would hardly call a 9 point loss to the Crows at AAMI when they were fighting to finish top 4 as a poor game/loss by the dogs.
And Mustard why don't you slink off back to your hole and watch highlights of your teams round 22 game? Oh thats right, there weren't any.
In 2006 me and 2 of the guys I went with, we sat in a mixed bay dogs & pies supporters. We cheered so loud 2 old pies a middle aged woman and her mum went and stood up the back for a quarter and a half.
They asked us to to be quiet as we were hurting their ears. My mates classic comeback was...
My list with a bulldog flavour
1. Carey
2. Ablett Snr
3. Voss
4. Hird
5. Grant, Chris
6. Koutafides
7. Lockett
8 Hawkins, Doug
9. Judd
10 Matera, Peter
Not really in any real order. As for the doggies players, Granty would have been more widely acknowledged as a champ had the dogs...
Good win by the Dogs, one of those workmanlike wins expected of a top side that's eyeing off bigger prizes later in the year.
Corpuscles does Ted Richards do things liek that everyweek? "by that I mean his poster from 2 metres out" What a frustrating player!!!!!!:eek::eek:
