    Re: New Members

    Hi everyone, I have followed the Western Bulldogs now for nearly 11 years. Im the only one in my family who supports them with my Mum supporting Melbourne, My Dad not following footy and my brother who supports Collingwood. I grew up and live in the Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne and for the first time attended the East meets West Family Day in Glen Waverley a couple of weeks ago which was a great morning meeting the players. Go Dogs.

      Welcome VSB.

      It must have been hard for those of you in the Eastern suburbs attending school as the only Doggies supporter.

      Character building I'd suggest.

        Yep too true. And I'm still doing it, working at a school in the SE suburbs! Not many Dogs fans here!

          I was just wondering if I could change my username from VSBulldogs to eastdog.

            Not to much different than when we grew up in the West all of those years back TCD.

              I changed schools in Grade 3, went from a school in Heathmont with maybe 1 or 2 Bulldogs in total, to a school in Blackburn with a Bulldogs supporter as the principal!! She worked pretty hard to convert as many students as possible, and on 'Footy Day' got us all together to sing the song. It was great!

                Thats sounds great. At my school in Wantirna I used to see a few Bulldogs supporters around on like a footy day. There were a few in my year level as well.

                  It's quite amazing the difference now...I have a 12 year old brother who has 2 close mates who are Doggies supporters, and there are always kids with Bulldogs stuff around the school on their footy days.

                    Quite true. You are always bound to see somewhere wearing Doggies gear. I finished school in 2007 now I'm at Uni.

                      Good to see 'Official Bulldogs' onboard.
