    It's a bit confusing as it said donations will be matched up to one million.

    When I put my donation in, it doubled (so got matched) and the counter reflected that.

    So the target should have been 2 million.

    Unless that figure was the unmatched, but I dont think it was.

    Which ever way they did it they got the target I guess . But it is spin doctored if it’s that way , so we actually only raised 500k but in affect 1 million.

    That's my feel. But I'm not 100 percent sure. My donation definitely doubled when it went into the ticker feed of new donations.

    Yes mine doubled too, so I guess members raised just over $500,000 in just over 12 hours or so. - still pretty good.

    Geelong did one, and it included the name of every Victorian taxpayer.

    Good response from members.

    Agree Comms were lacking.
    Decided to contribute some more and went for the jumper option as well.

    Good response from the Bulldog community.

    Agree also that the communication could have been better.

    Gott an email from the club today saying my original "Buy a Seat" in the old stand, will be reinstated in the new stand. Also received a second email, saying my latest donation on giving day will also give me a name in the new stand? May end up with two.

    That is pretty cool. I am glad the club is recognising the contributions of the past.
