Yeah I slept in Will go to the family day at Whitten Oval in February if the weather is good like it was this year. They'll probably play an intra club match at the family day.

Great shot there from near the EJ Whitten Stand. Loved seating up there when I've been to the WO.

Thanks Choco, looking through your photos I noticed:

* Tommy Boyd is now officially a beast
* Jongy looking good
* bit worried about the gut on Adams or is it?
* Wood looks in ripping condition as does Libba
* Wally looks in top shape
* JJ's hair even funnier than before

He's in great nick. Just carrying more muscle mass than everyone else, though he may have to lean down a bit if injuries keep hampering him.

A few signatures I got last week at the East West Day in Glen Waverley on one of my Bulldog caps.

From left to right: Fletcher Roberts, Lukas Webb, Zaine Cordy and Jack Redpath

Had only a black pen with me but still came up reasonably well.

Thanks Ringer, appreciate it if we keep this thread to events rather than football being played such as practice matches. Maybe start a new thread, Practice Matches 2018.

Looks like lots of footy coming up.

[BulldogBelle]

Thanks. The point of my post was not practice matches but information about what Western Bulldogs events were coming up so that I could plan what I was going to do. This includes all doggies activities including football matches, family days, social club functions, open training sessions, AGM, membership cut-off dates, release date of new video or book or whatever. There is no calendar on the Western Bulldogs website to tell me this. I am not looking for discussion on these events.

I found data related to AFLX and have included that.

Looks like there will be 3 matches on Saturday 5 May that includes the first WVFL match for the Western Bulldogs. Will have to consider whether or not to travel to Ballarat for the AFL match or stay local and watch the first WVFL match.

Cheers Ringer.

A lot of matches coming up.

I'm guessing the WB family day at Whitten Oval will be held sometime in late February or even in the early parts of March close to my birthday.
