    The Bulldog Heritage book

    This excellent production was launched at the Hall of Fame event. You can purchase your copy at Etihad on Sunday at the Bulldog Shop located at gate 7. This full colour, high quality book presents the history of the Footscray/ Western Bulldogs Football Club in the words of 90 former players. Read about the people, events and milestones that make up our club's history, as told by the players who experienced them all first-hand.
    Available in both hard back or a prestigious leather bound collector's edition.
    This is the first book in a series, produced under the guidance of former Club Brownlow Medallist and 5 times best and fairest winner, John Schultz.
    Consisting of 370 pages this is a truly great publication. Also available from Bulldog Central at the Club.

    Love the cover but as much as I thought Stevie Power was a ripper, he's in some pretty decent company there with EJ, Charlie, Hawk, Allan Hopkins and Jack Collins.

    Who's the guy in the top left hand corner?

    What does make this book different is that it is not at all focussed on the greats but as much on the lesser lights which makes it all the more interesting. Based on this the representation of greats on the front cover is a little misleading if you get my drift i.e. could easily have had say a Stuey Magee's shot on the front.

    It really is a worthwhile read. I got as much if not more out of the stories from those players I barely knew of than those of the higher profile players although I did enjoy Rick Kennedy's story.

    Marty McDonnell?


    Actually I'm pretty sure that I'm thinking of somebody else that I always get confused with Marty Mcdonell, Johnny Hoiles maybe? Or John Jillard.

    I dont think it's Arthur Olliver though.
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite
