    Bulldog's History Book

    Unleashed was treleased ten years ago and so much has happened since. Is it time for a new updated club history?


    What would be the topics covered/chapter headings?

    For me it would be:



    The Smorgon chairmanship
    The Wallace years
    Leaving the Whitten Oval
    The Rose Administration
    The Redevelopment
    Success and failure on the field
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite

    Maybe a "Where are they now" feature on the Hyde St School Band and the rotund gentleman who used to sell peanuts out of a big sack.

    I know exactly where he is and what he's doing. He's feeding worms six foot under.

    Using my imagination, would have to add the Chris Grant Brownlow fiasco - monumental.

    For me no more History Book updates or dvd highlight packages until we win a Grand Final.

    I used to watch the doggies on the Saturday and Port on a Sunday and he would frequently turn up at Port games also. I reckon it was the mid 70's when I first saw him. 20 cents for a bag of peanuts. No one in the crowd ever gave him any stick either. It was all about respect. Just a battler trying to earn a little extra cash. RIP Mr Peanut.

    Yeah, what a ripping book, I still haven't put it down. Let's hope there is an update.
