Barry's partner has had their baby. Named Miller. Sounds like it was a girl.

Oh well at least we have 18 years to get the Girls team up and running.

Good luck to them! I watched that jungle show they were in and just didn't see it coming!!!

Barry Hall will probably want his son to be a bulldog.

Yes, he's seen the umpiring decision differentials......why wouldn't he?

Have we forgiven Bazza for his comments regarding seeing himself as a Bulldog after he left us? Maybe it is time.

That's a bit of bad luck. Under today's rules, we're the only club eligible to take his son under the father/son rule (though the Dogs got Dunks Jr I guess) ... though I guess by then the AFL will have changed the criteria to 38 games allows a father son nomination

Given his comments before the GF last year, I think we can

"Hall said he has mixed emotions about his two former clubs facing off in the season decider.

?It would be a great story if the Bulldogs win and I?ve barracked for them when I was a kid but I am a Swans man,? Hall said."

A lot of unwarranted optimism about the future of the world here. Maybe we should merge this with the Positives thread or perhaps just have one Sci Fi thread.

I can't speak for "we", but I pretty sure the club has. The hall of fame moment I think came as a real surprise to him and he was very touched.
