    Re: Preseason Training - 2019

    Wonder if anything can be gleened from what colour top a player is wearing from a best 22 perspective?

    Oh yeah on a side note I really really like the new training tops.

    Interesting. From the photos I can identify the following:

    Black: Bont, Dunkley, Cordy, Gowers, Lipinski, Naughton, Daniel, Hunter, Macrae

    White: Williams, Sweet, B Smith, Vandermeer, R Smith, Lynch, Roberts, Jong, Cavarra, Richards, Hayes, Libba

    Most of the Black team in the photos are likely best 22 and most of the white are not. A couple of surprises though, particularly Ed Richards & Bailey Williams who most would have playing round 1, also Libba to a lesser extent. Lipinski must be having a good pre-season.

    I think it's the classic Possible's vs Probable's match simulation. You might have missed Crozier and one or two others.

    Like you, I think Williams and Richards are in the wrong jumpers although it might be to balance things out.

    I have been sitting here eating lunch and thinking "I can't think of a player we have who's surname is White. Maybe I missed a player we drafted?" God I can be an idiot sometimes. Oh well it filled in a bit of my day I guess!
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?

    Its probably a good for their development for those two to be thrown central roles and told to basically lead a midfield against the senior players

    Heath Black, obviously! He'd gotten a tattoo and being 10% tougher now he turned up looking for Shaggy and in the confusion somebody handed him a training jumper.

    Open Training this Saturday!


    Head to VU Whitten Oval this Saturday to see the Western Bulldogs hit the training track!

    There’s less than a month to go until our two JLT Community Series matches against the Gold Coast Suns (Mackay) and St Kilda (Ballarat), and six weeks until our AFL campaign gets underway against Sydney at Marvel Stadium on March 23.

    Saturday’s session will run from 8.45am to 10.30am and is FREE to attend.
    You will be able to get autographs from your favourite players, while there will be activities for kids to be involved in.

    Barkers Café will be open from 8.30am, and the Bulldogs Shop is stocked full of the new 2019 official ASICS range – with members receiving a 10 per cent discount.

    And if you’re not onboard as a member already for 2019, you can renew or join on the day.

    Wests is a small but powerful player. He and Lipinski were paired up in a kicking drill
