Just heard David passed away . A huge part of the club over the years who had a lot of health issues recently .
A good bloke who everyone knew through game highlights in the 80s and 90s waving his flag and running the cheer squad. He was 63 RIP David I will miss the small chats we had over the years .

RIP. Was the face of the cheer squad for so long. Recall that the day after a game in Adelaide in the late 1990s (we won) I went on a bus tour of the Barossa Valley and Dave was also on it. Great to chat all things Bulldogs!

Oh very sad, RIP.
I was actually in the cheer squad in the mid 80s and some of those bus trips out to Waverly with Gary? his wife and the crew were eye opening for a young fella.

David was as passionate supporter for the Dogs as anyone. RIP David

It's a huge loss to the club. I used to go to games with Dave back in the late '70s. Him and I in his old Kingswood sedan. I remember one game we won out at VFL park Dave said "hold this out of your window" it was a speaker that was attached to his car's tape player and we did laps of the car park playing the theme song.

I was the person who talked Dave into joining the cheer squad.

RIP old mate.

RIP.

Those that attended games in the 80s probably all remember him and have stories to tell.

RIP Dave. He was a Bulldog through and through. I remember being in the cheer squad when I was a kid and he was passionate back then and we would get flogged every week. I'm so glad people like him and my mum got to see a flag before they passed. He will be sadly missed.
