      Moz. Does coaching count?

        Your classification of a Bulldogs Person must be quite different to mine. To me it's if a player can only pick one club from his career that he most closely identifies with, it's the Bulldogs.

        I'm not sure about the players on your list from before my time but Hogg, Koster and Harbrow all played far more games for their second teams and Hogg and Koster are premiership players. I don't see how they can be classified as Bulldogs people.

          Surely Simon Atkins belongs on the list.

          Only left because Alan Joyce didn't like him but still managed a Footscray reserves premiership in his last game in our colours.

            Everyone but Adam Cooney thinks Adam Cooney will always be a Bulldog.
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              Jimmy Edmond, Magic McLean and Brad Hardie will always be Bulldogs.

                He appears to changing his tune just a bit.

                  With his son looking likely he's going to have to hey.

                    I've left a lot off the list.
                    Why? The club was a shambles at the time!

                      I’m not aware that Ray Walker left the Bulldogs for any other VFL club.

                        I believe you are right.

                        Walker moved to Tasmania as coach of Burnie.

                          Two B&Fs for Magic and induction into their HoF I think suggests otherwise.
                          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                            Where do we fit Bevo in this ?
                            He played and coached us to success,do you think he sees himself as a bulldog and do we ?
                            I have this strange feeling he is a saints man, probably due to him playing there and his dad’s history there .
                            I get the feeling he will go back there in some capacity at one stage.

                              He's our only living premiership coach - hes our games record holder coach

                              Hes spent more time at the Dogs than any other AFL club

                              He has family ties to the Saints but he also currently coaches our senior AFL team - Id say he's a bulldog and will always see himself as such

                                Was he just sucking up the Bombres to set up his media career?
