Better get your passport sorted out to watch Western play home games in another country!

Oh well we might be able to substitute that awful- doggie doggie doggie, woof woof woof

with a kiwi haka.

What would those big strong menacing looking warrior like New Zealanders make of that-appropriate for kindergarten children- doggie doggie doggie, woof woof woof?

Bitterly disappointed that this is still on the agenda. What happened to winding down the sale of home games away from Vic?

I take it the stadium we will play our home games in New Zealand, happens to be located in the western suburbs of Auckland? Well we assume the games are in Auckland, so if not Auckland then the Western Suburbs of Wellington?

As long as it is in the western suburbs so we can appeal to the 'westie' side of Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin, Palmerston North, etc and remain the Western Bulldogs.

If not- and the ground is in the eastern suburbs of Wellington or the northern suburbs of Auckland etc then what do we market ourselves as then? -

the Australasian Bulldogs
the Trans Tasman Bulldogs
the Anzac Bulldogs
the Anzus Treaty Bulldogs
the Former Anzus Treaty Bulldogs
the Chappell- Hadlee Bulldogs
the Two Nations Bulldogs
the Phar Lap/Split Enz/Russell Crowe Bulldogs

then there will be all the sheep jokes-

one will be something along the lines of

Q: Since they haven't won the Premiership since 1954 what else do the Western Bulldogs have in their trophy cabinet with that retrospectively awarded cup?

Yes it is a beauty isn't it- what is the go now with the bulldoze the debt campaign? I relented and coughed up my $200 a few months ago. So we are paying our membership, then paying the Bulldoze the 'Historical Debt' to watch us play designated HOME games on TELEVISION from another country?

We should never entertain playing home games in New Zealand. This should be completely ruled out.

[John Gent Stand]

The $ 200 you paid caveman for the bulldoze the debt campaign will be used to pay for the limosine to take Smorgon from the Auckland Airport to the Auckland Hilton. Other money donated will pay for the limosine between the ground and the Auckland Hilton.

Bulldoze the 'historical' debt- ha ha ha

Footscray fans conned again.
