Golden Boogs are a bit of fun we have every year at the end of the nrl season where awards are given out related to the raiders season and also related to the forum this season and the forum..ers.. :)

I'd find last years thread for you but I don't remember which section it was in haha

Very, very prestigious awards which are nominated and then awarded toward the end of the year. We have categories such as Best New Poster, Poster of the Year, Best Call of the Year, Football Mind of the Year, Moderator of the Year etc plus awards like Try of the Year, Highlight of the Year, Lowlight of the Year, stuff like that..

Its all very fun and everyone should get involved this year. You will know about it when it comes, nominations and the catergories will established and be voted for then.

yeah, i'm not sure either (hence the post). Seems to be like an awards ceremony for the GH. Like 'best football brain', 'funniest forum member' etc.

But I've really got no idea - just guessing. Keen to find out.

Golden Boogs are like the Bronlow Medal or the Oscars, only bigger.

I remember DJ and Ed did their own awards thing once, what was that called?? I cleaned up from memory. Best day of my life for sure.

The Droids were superior. Boogs take themselves too seriously, people actually care if they get awards or not.

Droids were even more tongue in cheek than the boogs are, basically what we did was gave everyone an award, or multiple awards if the joke fit :D

however, droids were on another forum, which we dont speak of ;)

I also reckon Bay is a red hot favourite to get the hat trick in the obsession award, however with Elliott moving on Carney is the man to step into the breach :P

Dude I'm going for Personality of the Year this time around.

I would have been a dead set cert for Mod of the Year but you've got to be a mod to get that award :P

How about Forum Rivalry of the Year ... me and T_R could give that one a good shot :lol:

I was sure we had three years of Boogs Awards... but maybe the first year was over at LU...

I was proud winning Boogs Awards last year after having picked up minor consolation awards previously... :)

I felt like John Wood... the old guy who never wins anything that they finally give something to before he dies. :)

If I remember last year I was nommed and people voted for Most Under-rated poster, only to see that they eventually cut out the award. Ah, when you think about its quite ironic. Or "un"-ironic.

*Is it better to phrase it as not ironic or non ironic.. is there an "un", "in" for the opposite or ironic?

I guess there's no opposite of ironic. If something's not ironic, there's little reason to speak about it in reference to irony.

I look forward to coming to my first BOOGS award party.
After reading last years thread, it seem like the funniest night of the season.
I'd LOVE to win newbie of year but i don't think i can since i joined last year but only really started posting this year. But hey, if i get nominated i'd be more then happy but hey a night with free beer, i'm their!!!

Hopefuly if the BOOGS night is held at the same time as last year, we'll all still be getting over the grand final win!!!

BTW what does BOOGS mean
