Are you still using the 'beard' scarf?

[choconmientay]

Guys,

I love my WOOF 'beard' scarf. I always wear it with pride and joy. Specially now the weather is cold outside, I tend to wear it a lot.

However, does anyone else feel weird like me wearing the beard scarf... since the 'beard' has moved on to other 'bigger' things.

I would have liked if he stayed retired, so that I can still proudly wearing my beard scarf.

Now, every time I use the scarf, I turned the beard inside to hide it but it is not always convenient. :o

Could we get another production run for the WOOF scarf with a new theme? "wink wink wink .... to ... ThePieMan" ;) He did such a good job with the beard scarf.

Maybe we could do something with Dahl? Does every one think Dahl dread lock already reach cult status within the WOOF community and deserve to be on some kind of merchandise?!

Cheers.

[The Pie Man]

I started a new job during last year's finals so haven't badgered people with the back story of the scarfe....until last Friday.

I brought the scarfe into work and trawled through the old threads to create a Beard Scarfe gallery to amaze/bore my new colleagues. Good times. Amongst questions such as 'who is Ben Hudson' was 'what cult figure can you focus on next?'

I thought about Dahlhaus (in the middle of our street) and his dreads, though he's committed to trimming them by year's end for charity....

So I wore the scarfe for the first time in quite a while to the game Friday - WOOF side up.

Anyone else?

[LostDoggy]

Would love to wear my beard scarf again, although it seems a little strange now that the "beard" has moved to sunnier weather and is still on the park! Mine is a treasured article, as I have had most of the players sign it!

I'm in for a Dahlhous scarf if we do a run - so, would we have a different theme to "appreciation society", or can that cross all boundaries? What does everyone call him - I have heard Bob Murphy call him "the grommet", which is slang for an inexperienced or junior surfer (I think - happy to be corrected).

Another reason to have Dahl dreads scarf before he trimming it off :)

I like the idea of a “Grommet” scarf. Wasn't it Murph who dubbed the People's Beard? If so, “Grommet” would have some consistency.

Back to the topic guys :). Seem like reasonable interest for a new scarf. We need someone 'skillful' like BornAScragger to do the design and 'ThePieMan' to play his connection with the production company and voilÃ* ... we should end up with a new, warm, uniq WOOF scarf ;)

[chef]

I happily still use my Beard one, it's a part of our history now the 'BHBAS'.

[LostDoggy]

My WOOF/Beard scarf has been retired and isn't coming out of retirement (unlike Ben Hudson). I have so many scarves, there's plenty to choose from. :)

Perhaps we should get a quick expression of interest from everybody so that we know if sufficient interest exists to justify getting them made (like last time).

Im all for a new scarf as I also have retired my BHBAS scarf to the back window of my Commodore (Geez how Western Suburbs am I).

Love the idea of another scarf dedicated to another one of our player's talent/facial features. Dalhaus is a good target, all I thought of was "He got Dreaaaaaaaads. And knows how to use them" So that covers any songs, will need to think of something more scarf suited.

[SonofScray]

Maybe a nod to our older nicknames? Such as Saltwater Lads, men from the Land of Boulders, Tricolours etc, Imps ....

[Maddog37]

I want one with pics of Jarrod grants head plastered all over it. It simply makes me laugh to myself every time I see it. He has so many great nicknames too. Merlin, Avatar, mr Spock, praying mantis, the list goes on.

[I'm Not Bitter Anymore!]

Arriba!

[The Pie Man]

I'm sure something will happen eventually - the Beard movement felt ...organic (?).....what I'm trying to say is that the feeling around it wasn't manufactured. It evolved quite naturally, and a new WOOF / cult hero / whatever else should rise the same.

In my view anyway.

I think it's worth revisiting the Liam Jones nickname abbreviation on the scarf. It looks a bit … questionable to me.

[LostDoggy]

L Jizz is what Liam calls himself , true is does look a bit odd on a scarf ( I don,t mean in a Presidential way ) , I don,t know what to change it too maybe Lil Jo or Lee Jay , I don,t mind Lee Jay its easy to say and bit " cooler " than just LJ , I,ll make a design with Lee Jay then will I if people are happy with that ?

.

[AndrewP6]

If that's his nickname, thats the one to go with IMO. Don't try to clean it up too much.

My input probably doesn't matter as I'd be unlikely to get one anyway as it feels a bit forced (I'm with The Pie Man on that), but if I was I'd be extremely reluctant to wear a scarf with the word Jizz written on it.

I,m just going with the flow , you have an idea I,ll post a design , slightly stuck on the template as I need a space to put writing , I have got 4 or 5 I havn,t tried , fire away

as far as people to make a scarf for Bob is pretty high up the list , I heard ages ago that someone was calling him Alice , well he was conceived in Alice Springs but other than that I havn,t a clue , there was someone else who commented on one of his games when he first started ( slightly horizontally challenged and rakish ) , he said young Robert has committed several " Cardinal thins " as in caught in the wrong position and pushed off the ball , asked what that meant he said " His father was a Priest and his mother was a Nun " laughing till we all fall down , thinking back on that now that is a hell of a nickname for Bob - Cardinal Thins

Ok, time to bump this thread, my poor old peoples beard scarf is looking like the 6.04am service from broadmeadows. old, tired and smelling like stale beer.

Now that we have a new breed of bulldogs, I think its time to come up with something new.

If we wanted to actually make something like this I'd obviously put more time and effort into the reaper dog. I was thinking a flag pole instead of a gun, with the VFL 2014 premiers flag replacing the blade. A sherrin with an anarchist symbol on it.

Thoughts?
