Was still not impressed he was bludging at work so he could be on the forums :P

I happily voted yes for gay marriages but I'm not supporting weirdo marriages for you two! :lol:

I was living in Melbourne and had just got an Internet connection (with One-Tel) and was browsing to find some way to keep tabs on Norwood in the SANFL and the SA teams in the AFL and thus found the site.

FootySA, although it appears I didn't sign up here straight away.

The match threads in those days were enormous. Good times.

The North Haven Footy club had a couple of 'shared' accounts back in the day.
I'm pretty sure they got banned so we had to each get a username ourselves.

I'm pretty sure most people from that have been banned as well :lol:

I was introduced to SAfooty after all the older blokes would talk about it at training back in my first year of senior footy in 2008- the infamous Cash Haven v Poorland days. Used to read those forums while at school, real funny times lol. Was just a guest for a couple of years reading the forums before joining in 2010.

The Roost. Was a 'longtime listener' here before taking the plunge a couple of years ago.

Saw a link on BigFooty. 8)

Then noticed someone dribbling some absolute shit about Mitchell Park and an on field incident.

Yeah, FootySA too, about 2003, although was it going for a year or two beforehand?

Didn't join this one immediately out of loyalty to FootySA until the arse fell out of it

Stumbled across Footy SA in about 2003. I was in my third year in Japan at the time and I desperately needed the internet to catch up on SANFL scores. I had discovered the SANFL website as soon as I had arrived in Japan, so I knew the scores and schedules, but it never occurred to me back then that people had bothered to establish a blog devoted to chatting about footy.
One day Footy SA went for a "new look", but it was sort of like when you girlfriend comes home with a bad haircut, and traffic died off, then it closed down as a blog, and everyone moved to the new site in the space of 24 hours or so.
