Not Worth A Thread - Random Bulldog Discussion - Part 2

[dogwatch]

Been a big few months for major fires in the West

Did all those people who were geared up to burn Whitten Oval to the ground after the Brisbane and Port games suddenly find they were at a loose end?

Loose end, is that a nod to the product Kinnears used to make

 

[Mr. Walker]

Just seen the old Kinnears factory is up in flames

Is Kinnears where they had a problem with squatters?

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Oh no, developers have been trying to get in there for ages, so sad.

For those who might not be aware, this is Donate Life Week.

It's also a cause that we advertise and support on the WB web site, as anyone who has watched a video on the club web site would know. Bont, Caleb, Astro and Liam all give it a plug.

It may not be for everybody - so no pressure - but if you've ever thought about registering why not do it this week?

It only takes a minute.

Fantastic post. Thanks dogwatch.

I've been registered for years.

Mrs GJ79 is still with us due to two altruistic kidney donors (unfortunately I wasn't a match).

I'm not religious (well, not any more, sorry Mum and Dad!), but there's a sticker used to do the rounds on cars years ago:

"Don't take your organs to heaven. Heaven knows we need them here."

Frayed knot!

I know I've already made my point above, but here's the link from the WB website, just as a reminder:

Interesting graphic. Bont coming with a rush. Had forgotten how strong Griff was in the tackle.

(minimum 50 games).

When he played, our winning strike rate was 65%, just ahead of Jason Akermanis and Matthew Dent.

There is a new leader. To date, Lachie McNeil is rolling at 66%.

It's always the ones you most suspect

Good for Matthew Dent to have won this many games at the 'Dogs after I think he only won 4 games out of 47 at Fitzroy.

We need to keep Lachie McNeil in the team for the rest of the season. What about VDM. What's his winning strke rate?

Bob returning from WA at the end of the season, finishing up at Fremantle.

 

[SPower]

I always thought Bob moving was a really odd move.
Life so far away from immediate family is not for everyone, although this maynot be the reason for coming home.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Is he going to another club?

Is he going to another club?

Wonder if he’s looking for a gig as a forwards coach?

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

No thanks. There’s an old saying: “You can’t go back - unless you’re Liam Jones.”

People seemed to be a bit over “quirky” Bob by the time he left. What did he actually do at Freo?

Just wondering out loud.

I don’t know if he’s any good. But I could say the same about Spangher.

 

[Mr. Walker]

Is there an official update on John Schulz’s condition?

 

[Smiley Boy]

Have just been told Treloar is a lock for his first AA jacket

Unreal season from him and good to see him get rewarded!

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Is there an official update on John Schulz’s condition?

Not so far. Bevo’s Brief was the only time I’ve heard it mentioned. Hopefully he’s on the improve

Apparently Danny McGinlay has been given the go ahead to do the banners for the finals
