Footy Fever - Bulldogs Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Bunjil: I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:

             - Cache Owner unable to maintain cache 
             - No response from the cache owner.
             - No cache to find or log to sign.
             - It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
             - Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

 Footscray - Western Bulldogs

 

The Footscray Football Club, currently known as the Western Bulldogs, is an Australian Rules football club that plays in the Australian Football League (AFL). Founded in 1877, the club won nine premierships in the Victorian Football Association (VFA) between 1898 and 1924, and has won one premiership in 1954 since joining the Victorian Football League (VFL), the predecessor to the AFL, in 1925.

The Western Bulldogs home Guernsey features two thick horizontal "hoops"—one red and one white—on a royal blue background. The club's traditional rivals include St Kilda and geographical rivals Essendon.

The club has its headquarters and practices at the Whitten Oval in Footscray, an inner-western suburb of Melbourne, Australia. The club draws its supporter base from this traditionally working class area and plays its home matches at Docklands Stadium in the Melbourne Docklands area, also in the city's inner-west. In October 1996, the Club began to play under its current name of the "Western Bulldogs", changing from its original name of the "Footscray Football Club". The Whitten Oval underwent a A$20 million redevelopment starting in 2005 to improve the Club's headquarters and training facilities.

 

Western Bulldogs Club Song is sung to "Sons of the Sea".

Sons of the west,

Red, white and blue,

We come out snarling, Bulldogs through and through.

Bulldogs bite and Bulldogs roar, we give our very best.

But you can't beat the boys of the Bulldog breed,

We're the team of the mighty West!

Before the Footscray Football Club became the Western Bulldogs, the song used different lyrics;

Sons of the 'scray,

Red, white and blue,

We will come out smiling, if we win or lose.

Others build their teams my lad, and think they know the game,

But you can't beat the boys of the Bulldog breed, that make ol' Footscray's name!
