    1000 Not Out!

    Well folks, this is my one thousandth posting!
    To celebrate the milestone I've gone for a change of avatar, kudos to the first person to pick the new one (not counting Coach and Exile 'cause you already know ) and what the relevance might be.
    Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this site throughout our short history and I look forward to many more people with a passion for the Western Force getting involved and putting their opinions forward.
    As with a few of you, this is the first online forum that I have been a regular member or even occasional poster of and, to be honest, I never thought I'd see the day that I would be part of a "forum". I thought that was the domain of people like Coach
    Speaking of Coach, a special thank you for getting the ball rolling for this fantastic forum and all that you have done along the way. We should all remember that a site such as this does not come without expense of one kind or another and in his own words Coach has carried most of that as his hobby.
    I think that the time is now right that a few of us spread that expense so that we can really see this site kick on to be a treasure for all Western Force and Western Australian Rugby supporters.
    For the cost of a couple of rounds at your local you can make a real difference and enhance the experience for all.
    Contributors are recognised as their donation helps to make this such a vibrant and informative site.
    Enough unsolicited begging for now, just look down the bottom of the page for the PayPal link if you find yourself using this site a lot and liking what you see.
    I look forward to many seasons of sharing the good and bad times of the Western Force with you all and helping to build the best supporters website on the net.


    GO THE FORCE!!!

    well the head-dress is a bit confusing but could it be ........"Cacofonix, the bard. Opinion is divided as to his musical gifts. Cacofonix thinks he's a genius. Everyone else thinks he's unspeakable. But so long as he doesn't speak, let alone sing, everybody likes him....."


    But seriously CONGRATS on post 1000, Burgs. You need to get out more.

    From someone who's posting to a forum - also his first if you don't count rec.sport.rugby.union- on a saturday night

    Congrats on the 1000th mate - who would of thought one guy could write that much cr*p.

    Burgs having met you and shared a drink or 10 with you I think you should have gone with Obelix not because you are both big blokes but after seeing your prowess in collecting that lovely lady's telephone number it reminded me a lot of Obelix penchance for Wild Boar.

    Obviously in the right field Shastix but a bit more obscure (and yet more obvious too!) than that

    Bloody Newsbot Larrix, plagerises more material than I do!!!

    Exilix, finally some semblance of the truth from that night starts to come forth!

    Megabitix, not far off the truth when when I'm in the city anyway mate
    They say it takes one to know one

    Thanks fellas, it's all been fun, here's to rugby

    Beefix....very amusing. I used to have every single book...sad but true. Unfortunately they are all back in Scotland although I do get the new ones when they come out. (Had to look it up though.)

    Happy 1000th

    Thanks Kiltix and well researched!
    I knew there had to be an Asterix nerd out there somewhere
    As a reader you possibly realise why I only went for the head shot, not all that flattering from there down
    I reckon in a way they are the original Simpsons with their double stories aimed at innocent kids and wordly adults.
    Big night for Scotland mate, suprised you have surfaced this early!?

    Congrats Burgs on your 1000, I'm sure it won't be long before we're celebrating your 2000.

    But going outside once in a while can be fun too.
