      Been really good seeing quite a few Bulldog premiers stickers on cars when I've been out and about.

        You must be spotting a lot more stickers and stuff lately Easty?
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              I didn't know there were so many bulldog supporters.

                  Mate of mine makes balloon toys at local pubs and kids parties. He is a Tigers man and said to me the other day he has been blown away by the amount of kids that have said they are Bulldogs supporters in the last 4 to 5 weeks.

                    I think after 62 years of trauma we are allowed to leave everything out as long as we bloody well like

                      If we parlay this premiership properly and connect the success of club with the Western area in particular and Melbourne in general it could set our club up for a huge boost in support and membership. Kids saying they are bulldog supporters is encouraging but we want mum and dads membership money as well.

                      It's always been a bit hard trying to appeal to people when you've had no success but I've always thought if we can offer the chance at a premiership and it's not just empty words then people will get aboard. We could be a really big club with if people in the outer west really involved. If we could convert areas like Werribee and Melton and St Abans to being bulldog towns.

                      All those people at the parade and the premiership celebration couldn't all have been members.

                        Don't forget the Ballarat and Western Victoria regions, the timing couldn't be better regarding our push into his area.

                          Here's an indicator of how powerful the premiership has been

                          The Best Thing-Boom Crash Opera

                          I absolutely hated this song. Like hated it. With a passion. It's as though Gillon and Channel 7 receive royalties every time it's played. And it's not just the repetitiveness of hearing it any time something football related is occurring, it's also just a terrible song.

                          HOWEVER, i think it was the first song played after the cup ceremony, and upon hearing it, with a euphoric sense of elation, relief and achievement, it just seemed fitting. So now i look at the song differently.

                          So now that time has passed i can say these songs remind me of that day the most:
