WOOF Catch Up Friday Night

[The Coon Dog]

Anyone interested in catching up before the game on Friday night?

I reckon many will get there early Friday so if you want, perhaps meet up in the Victory Room & catch up.

I think it's about Aisle 18 on level 1.

Might be a good idea to wear Ben Hudson T-Shirts.

[aker39]

I'm up for it Baz, but do you mean Victory Room - Social Club or Victory Room - plebs bar

[The Coon Dog]

I'm up for it Baz, but do you mean Victory Room - Social Club or Victory Room - plebs bar

Didn't know there were 2 of them.

[LostDoggy]

Im up for it, I should be recieving my shirt in the mail sometime this week!

[aker39]

The big room that runs form about Aisle 11 to Aisle 16 is the Victory Room.

They then split it up in to seperate rooms. From about Aisle 11 to 13 is now exclusive for AFL Members.

Then about Aisle 14, there is now a public bar/food area.

Aisle 15 to 16 is Bulldogs Social Club.

If most people on here are social club members, we can just make it the social club room.

[LostDoggy]

Oh...wish we could, but can't make it to the game this week. Bummer - maybe next time ;) !

Sounds good to me, see anyone who wants there then Friday night.

[ledge]

i wanna catch up but not a social member

[LostDoggy]

i wanna catch up but not a social member

Im a social club member I'll be there..maybe we can wave to you at the door ledge? ;) j/k

[ledge]

i lied my way in last time using the kids as excuse, no kids this time, make it a public bar, what time and exact area?

[G-Mo77]

I probably could get there. I did upgrade my membership to Social Club but have nothing to show for it other than -$95 from my Bank Account. Last year I got a key ring? What did you guys get to show you're a Social Club member.

[The Coon Dog]

What did you guys get to show you're a Social Club member.
A key ring.

I got a key ring this year, a small plastic rubber type its not very good and I think I lost it. You can gain entry by showing your membership card that says Social Club Member on it..

Yeah, a little key ring in the shape of a guernsey...but that won't get you into the Victory Room. I got a new membership card with "Socal Club Adult" printed on the back... that gets you in. (Note the impressive spelling of "Social"! The club offered to replace these, but I couldn't be bothered)

[AndrewP6]

I'll be there for dinner in the Social Club...don't have a BHBAS t-shirt...but I am sort of recognisable!

[Throughandthrough]

Can i ask for early nominations for the week after when I will be there?


(with the t-shirt, natch)

Bit hard that week as its an 'away' game.

[Mantis]

Tough choice.... Drinking free grog up in the box or catching up with all you unwashed folk in a public area.

I'll get back to you. :D

[LostDoggy]

Sounds good, what time? We were in there last week after the game, when Morris, Shaggy and Ward came in to say a few words. I think we sang the club song 4 or 5 times:D

What, you have two heads or something?

[BornInDroopSt'54]

Not that out of this world - wheelchair.

[AndrewP6]

????

HAHAHAHAHAHA!Sorry, that was a bit cryptic... no, I only have one head (insert Tasmanian joke here) but I'm in a wheelchair...so that kind of makes me stick out when someone is searching!

[bornadog]

A key ring.

They won't accept a Key ring, your membership will indicate you have social club access, something like Gold Member on it.

Just checked mine & on the back it says 'Premiership Gold'. Thanks bornadog.

Hopefully I will drop in.

My bad.

You do get to sit in the best seats at Docklands, but.

:)

[The Underdog]

I'll try but going with a few of the enemy as well as a recent convert (got one!) so might be rude to duck out on them.

**** 'em! If they don't know you're rude by now, time for them to learn. See you there! :D

[comrade]

Two heads AND a wheelchair would've been really impressive :D

[AndrewP6]

Yeah, it does have some perks... although at times I wish I was eight again, and someone could carry me down to the front row seats!...

[AndrewP6]

Hey, don't joke, I know some people like that...

OK, so that was a little lie... :)

[AndrewP6]

Two heads AND a wheelchair would've been really impressive :D

And easy to find in a crowd!

[Desipura]

I'll be there, sadly I only recognise TCD & SS's scones :D

You've hit the jackpot there. Two fairly attractive scones to look at, it must be said.

Unfortunately I'll be stuck at home watching on delay and trying to avoid ES's text messages looking after the little bloke while the bride is at work.

[LostDoggy]

Are little old ladies invited too? :D

[aker39]

I probably could get there. I did upgrade my membership to Social Club but have nothing to show for it other than -$95 from my Bank Account. Last year I got a key ring? What did you guys get to show you're a Social Club member.

Did they send you a new membership ticket.

If not, I'd follow that up, because you will have a new bar code number and you will need that come Grand Final week.:)

[aker39]

Sounds good, what time?


As I don't have a reserved seat and am not guaranteed entry, I will be getting there early to make sure I get in.

[The Coon Dog]

Sure are Larry6.

Sounds like my Saturday night last week (except ES's text's).

[Axe Man]

It's my second year as a social club member and I've never been near the place. Might try to pop in after the game and see what my money is paying for.

Pop in before too & say hello!

I just rang the club and they said they would send me a Key Ring today but nothing is written on my card. She said on the phone that I shouldn't need another card?

[craigsahibee]

That's incorrect. The security duys on the door check the printing on the back of all the membership cards. Social Club keyrings mean diddly.

Hmm... curiouser and curiouser :). I thought all SC members had this printed on their cards...

G-Mo77 upgraded throughout the year, so his initial membership ticket just shows him as a "normal" member.

Yep that's correct. I'll try to get in with my Keyring, if I can't I'll have to give it a miss I'm afraid.

Sorry G-Mo77... not sure why we've been given different information... good luck!

[Sedat]

Enjoy the night guys. I'll be at home entertaining the in-laws and having to put up with their black & white blinkers.

[Axe Man]

Pop in before too & say hello!

Would love to but even after knocking off work over an hour early I wont get there until 6:30pm (after a 1.5 hour train ride), at which point I will be scrambling to find a seat in GA.

Membership lady is wrong. I upgraded last year and the club sent me a new card quite promptly. I'm pretty sure you need a new barcode number which is classified as social club - will be very important if we happen to make it to the grand final.

She asked me to read the barcode out to her and said that it was a Social Club Membership. I really can't remember if I got a new card last year or not. I'm pretty sure I got just a Key Ring.

Does your card say Premiership Gold? If so, that includes social club

[ledge]

Looks like the invite is only for social members.

[BornInDroopSt'54]

It's a pity being normal isn't enough. I may be anti-social as my default position but I'd like to meet you guys and I'll be at the game. I'm prepared to call the bluff of these officious doormen and see if they aren't generous after all. I may see you there yet.

If someone can point out a woof member trying to get in, I will be able to get them in.

[bornadog]

Have you read this thread from start to finish:confused:

Yes I have. If some one has upgraded they need a new membership card. If they ring the membership department and ask for the new card, and explain they need it for Social club, the club is obliged to print a new one.

It was just that when you asked the question: Does your card say premiership Gold?

This had been answered already.


PS - If you are a social club member without a reserved seat, your card will just say Social Club adult.

[LostDoggy]

Not sure what time I'll be there Alex, depends on when I leave & traffic, but hopefully early.

[Raw Toast]

Hope you all have a grand night - I'm married to the enemy, and we couldn't get a ticket for her in time so out of the goodness of my heart (and while she's carrying around what should be another dogs member), we'll drop the 3yo at the inlaws, have dinner and a movie and be back in time for the delayed broadcast.

[Ozza]

Have a good night there guys and girls. Missing tonights game due to a work function - but am having the game recorded - so hopefully I'll be watching a good win with a good hangover on Saturday morning.

[Desipura]

It was good to catch up with TCD, Bornadog, Mantis, Comrade, FDOTM & Andrew Purser (I may have missed someone?). All nice to put a face to a name allbeit for only a small chat.
It was even nice to meet bornadog, too bad the feeling was not mutual:D
PS Thanks for the cap TCD!

I said I might change my username, you've changed it for me! :)

The night finished badly, but started well meeting some WOOFers... and the caps are great. Might now have to get me one of those BHBAS t-shirts... peer pressure is a powerful thing. Nice to meet some of you guys...and it was amazing to buy my Footy Record off a former student!

[LostDoggy]

I wore my Huddo shirt but got to the game a bit later than expected...will try and catch up next home game everyone is in the social club.

The lady that sits behind me every game mentioned my shirt and how you could see them everywhere in the social club! Very noticeable shirts. Good Stuff.

Of course it was mutual, I enjoyed meeting all, not sure what you mean. Sorry if you thought I was unfriendly, I was nervous before the game.

[Desipura]

I actually stepped out to say a quick Hi to a mate than I was coming back to the Victory Room to contniue chatting, unfortunately I took too long and you guys had left. Admittedly it was 10 minutes before the bounce.

sorry bud, Purser was a favourite as he was for Micky Malthouse who rates him one of the best ruckman that he has ever coached.

[Sockeye Salmon]

sorry bud, Purser was a favourite as he was for Micky Malthouse who rates him one of the best ruckman that he has ever coached.

It's not saying much though, is it?

Some of the rucking superstars Malthouse has coached include Ryan Turnbull, Laurie Keane, Chris Bryan, Cameron Wood.

Josh Fraser is probably his next best and we saw how good a ruckman he is last night.

Perhaps not, Purser was not that tall for a ruckman and would finish a game all bruised and battered hence why he rated him so highly. Was punching way out of his division!
Malthouse also coached the ex WCE & Sydney ruckman who's name has escaped me, premiership ruckman at both clubs for memory.

[AndrewP6]

No worries, as a kid I watched Purser, and was rapt a player had the same initials as me!

Sockeye, we can confirm that AndrewP6 doesn't have 2 heads!

Don't thank me, thank GVGjr, I was just a messenger. From memory the 9 I had went to Desipura, AndrewP6, bornadog, firstdogonthemoon, nosebleed, The Dogs Bollocks, comrade, Ozza & Aker39.
