speaking of pubs, the Lord of Isles was a good place to have a drink before the game. Even managed to speak to Ted Whitten jnr who happened to be in the Pivotonians with yours truly along with Merv Hughes. Ian Cover hosted the function. Other than the result, a good day was had!

A big welcome to all our new members, if you have any questions or queries feel free to send a PM.
Thanks for the invite.
Fantastic looking site, well done to all involved.
I have been in footy hibernation since the GF, but the draft has awaken me from my slumber.
Looks like we have gone very tall in the draft, just waiting for the headline in the next few years when hopefully Grant, Cordy, Roughhead and Jones are all playing,"Bulldog talls provide a challenging match up and monster their opposition!" wouldn't that make a nice change.
Thanks for the reports guys, they are oustanding. It's great to know the team has such supporters with excellent knowledge and perception. I'm an old dog, now in Frankston and unlikely to make it to pre-season training, but am straining at the bit at the prospect of us improving on 08 with improvements out of Griffen, Williams, Higgins, Johnno, Hill and others.
I'll be happy if the only reports I get are off this forum, because it'll mean no injuries.
Yes born in Droop St, Used to kick a plastic footy with Ricky Spargo, brother of Bob. when he and I were about 6 or 7. They lived in the Fire Brigade Flats. Both of them played for the Dogs. We would wander down to the Western oval, and had the occasional kick on the ground with Ted Whitten Jnr in 1960.
