Re: Eight announcements in eight hours
I would have liked for it to be an army of Bulldogs legends leading the way...Grant, Johnson, Schulz, Hawkins, anyone else that wanted to be a part of it.
Wil and Fifi is purely for the media exposure, and trying to build up a real bulldogs army. Fifi has apparently spoken about buying a membership and things on air a fair bit recently, not what I would call a passionate Dog but it's positive exposure so still good news.Comment

Anti climax alright. Hope Fifi doesn't drive there and try to park in a disabled parking Bay.[B][COLOR="#0000CD"]Our club was born in blood and boots, not in AFL focus groups.[/COLOR][/B]Comment

Your second paragraph talks of a gimmick photo opportunity. Something which is devoid of tribalism.
But I guess the club knows best...Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Eight announcements in eight hours
Who the heck is Fifi-Box? What an anti-climax Dogs!! I'd rather we get Doris from Braybrook Aged Care in a Wheelchair, Cigarette in one hand, Bulldogs pom pom in the other.
Agree Mantis - Innes is number 1.
Actually Fifi-Box looks a lot like Wil Anderson in Drag and Peroxide.You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships every day. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity. ― EpicurusComment

In order of importance Inness is number 1.. His role is absolutely crucial to our continued improvement.Comment

Re: Eight announcements in eight hours
Absolutely agree. Just that at the moment, Inness is just a guy filling a job. No idea if he is going to be anything from awful to amazing.Comment

Re: Eight announcements in eight hours
I think the reaction to this announcement is a bit more downbeat than it should be.
A woofer has come up with a brilliant idea to enhance the clubs traditions and sense of togetherness.
Within a matter of days the club have embraced this and done what they can to promote it and instill excitement in it.
This isn't about Wil & Fifi, they only provide media attention. It's about the Doggies community sticking their chest out and being proud of our team, and of who we are as a club and community. It could be something great if people choose to get behind it.
What's with the underwhelmed response?Comment

Re: Eight announcements in eight hours
Wil wears his doggy heart on his sleeve loudly and proudly, at any half a chance. He's mentioned his love of the dogs on many American podcasts as well, which must confuse a few people. Great to see the banner man Danny McGinlay involved as well. If I lived in Melbourne I would proudly embrace and join the march. Hopefully we can do it again grand final dayComment

I reckon the last one was going to be something bigger but fell through at the last minute. That last release looks like it has been knocked together at a minutes notice.They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment
