That's right, I'm taking a huge leap of faith and changing clubs before even completing a season with the Bulldogs.

Some of you will question why. This is where you stop reading if you don't enjoy being bored to death with words...........*Commence wankfest* Basically I see this as a great opportunity, for myself and the site. When I was first on the lookout for a team in this game, I would have preferred a team like the Hawks over the Dogs - to start over pretty much completely, rather than have some of the work done for me with guns such as O'Keefe, Stevens, Scotland, Bowden and a few others who are better than the best player at the Hawks, at my disposal. To start off from this position is an even greater challenge, and I love a challenge, there is nothing better in FF for me.

I also must say I enjoy the process of running a team, trading etc. more than ultimately playing matches during a season. In this respect, without sounding like I have achieved success or anything which I haven't, I believe the Bulldogs have it made for them as the list only needs tinkering now rather than being rebuilt completely.

I'm also big on the ultimate success of this site, this is the best site of this type I have come across, and I have seen first hand sites like this ultimately fail because of a minority of teams being poorly run, and the domino effect this can have on the entire comp. JM taking the leap convinced me a 2nd person should to, its just a great opportunity to have 16 good clubs in this comp. So if taking on this challenge and giving up what is an established young side for someone else is a good thing for the site, then its a good thing for me, too.

*Wankfest concludes*

If the Dogs go onto great things I'm taking credit though ;)

The entire Hawks list will be up for trade and we'll be as aggressive as ever. Bring it on.
