If folks can't join the club and enjoy it now, I dare say they never will. It's almost unnatural to have so much good news, so consistently and for so long!

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
IMO this is great news.
We needed a car sponsor and bagged a premium one, not a shit box Chinese or Korean one. Or American crap like Jeep.
Next target: a top 4 bank.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Going to be hard as we just signed up People's Choice Credit Union!
An airline or insurance company would be a good get. I'd love News Corp, or even the Blue, White & 'Red Bull' Dogs.

Re: Mercedes Benz new sponsor
FWIW I have owned a very fancy old Merc, so I'm amused at this news.
Owned it for 1 hour and never drove it. Sold it to a mate.
I inherited it - all because of the Western Bulldogs, who killed my Swans supporting dad on grand final day in 2016.
Heart attack, sometime between the second and third quarters I'm told.
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Western Bulldogs partner with Mercedes-Benz Vans Australia
Link
In a major off-field coup, the Western Bulldogs have announced a ground-breaking three-year partnership with global automotive manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz Vans Australia.
It is the first time the Bulldogs have aligned with an automotive manufacturer, and the first partnership with a major sporting club for Mercedes-Benz Vans Australia.
As principal partner for the 2018 season and beyond, the Mercedes Benz-Vans logo will feature on the back of the Bulldogs’ AFL guernsey, with Mission Foods remaining on the front of the guernsey as the major partner of the Club.
The Mercedes-Benz Vans logo will also be prominent on the Club’s apparel and official media backdrop from next season.
Western Bulldogs President Peter Gordon said the new partnership was a great outcome for both Mercedes-Benz Vans and the Club.
“We are thrilled to welcome Mercedes-Benz Vans into the Western Bulldogs family,” said Bulldogs’ President Peter Gordon.
“This partnership breaks new ground for the club as our first automotive partner, and we are excited to work closely with such a high calibre global brand which shares similar values and ambitions to the Bulldogs.”
Managing Director Mercedes-Benz Vans Australia and New Zealand, Diane Tarr, said this partnership was the perfect fit for the Mercedes-Benz Vans brand.
“The Bulldogs are a nationally admired sporting team, and the values of the Club are very much aligned with our values at Mercedes-Benz Vans,” she said.
“Our products and people are known for their reliability, resilience and capability to get the job done. We support people in their business operations and have an unrelenting passion to be the best.
“I can’t think of a better club to align with than the Western Bulldogs. We will be so proud to have our Mercedes-Benz Vans logo on the back of every Bulldogs AFL guernsey.”
As part of the partnership, renowned chef Shane Delia, owner of Maha restaurant and Biggie Smalls, and an ambassador for the Bulldogs and Mercedes-Benz Vans, will work with both brands on some exclusive inner sanctum experiences.
And much like the Western Bulldogs’ recent on-field success, the stature of Mercedes-Benz Vans Australia is also set to strengthen.
The existing range, including the industry renowned Sprinter and Vito, will expand next year with the highly-anticipated introduction of the new Mercedes-Benz X-Class Ute.
“The X-Class will be a Ute that knows no compromise. Much like what the Western Bulldogs demonstrated last year, the X-Class will set new standards in a highly competitive and established field,” Tarr said.

Notwithstanding Mercedes supporting the 'Dogs, I still hope "Danny Ric" whips their arse in F1.

What if it was a Mercedes van ripping around the F1 tracks with a bulldog sticker on the rear window?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

That is about as likely as Donald Trump replacing Peter Gordon as Bulldog President Twodogs.

We've gone from a P 76 or a Datsun 180 B a few years ago to Mercedes .
