Thanks Anchorman, hopefully I can fulfil the promise.
George let the cat out of the bag a little early, but I can honestly say its been a positive response. It will be a shame to see FG go though...

There is literally heaps of ideas that can be incorporated into a new site/forum, but only as I learn how to, and its certainly not something that can be done over a couple of weekends.

The site is pretty basic at the moment, but we are working on a look that is more footy specific.

I'm open to ideas, and will try my best - software and time permitting.

Anyway, welcome to OzFooty.

Been watching the site since George 'let the cat out of the bad' and it's coming along quite nicely. Even if FG doesn't fold, I think a few from there will gravitate here. From my perspective, I hope you don't screw the conversation down too much. Sure, there's some tools that take it too far on FG and should be censured. But I like the spit/spat and the cleverer and harmless insults that go on there. I think we all have a laugh, but if you stop all the spats, then you'll end up with a sterile site like the WAFL chat site. It's boring and they have their little "purple circle". Anyway, only my thoughts....looking forward to what develops here.

No plans to screw it down... I think thats half the fun of FG.

Looks good so far, I would suggest adding a Facebook 'Like' button on the home page. This will be an easy that I can send out a message to my mates to join.

Looks great.. Was lurking on FG and throwing in the occassional comment..
Went away from the site as I wasn't in the market for hand bags, shoes or mens erectile medicine.. And the fact the Hawks and Sharks both lost their GF's..

Still trying to find my way round it here.

Best and quickest way is to email me at oldtorana at gmail (dot) com
Otherwise George can be contacted on george at ozfooty (dot) net

Its not always wise to use your email addresses on forums, so appologies for the cryptic answer.

Email will come throught to my mobile. I am on NSW time, and George WA time though...

Great job Mike,love the forum setup,will recommend to my mates who love WAFL footy also.Keep up the good work mate.

Have just signed up and this being my first posting. The site looks great. Was never a great fan of FG I need to admit. Hopefully can keep up with all the larest Wafl news.

I have sent the WAAFL's twitter account this website. Hopefully they will publish it on their twitter feed and/or website.

Be good to have a forum 'clean' of spam again!

So far so good. Its on minimal spam protection at the moment, but can be ramped up quite quickly if need be.

Mike.
