An apparently genuine Fitzroy Bulldogs jumper has found its way on to ebay. If anyone has a spare 2k. Personally if it could be confirmed geniune, I think it belongs in the Fitzroy museum.

It looks fake imo. There is nothing on the jumper that represents the bulldogs, it looks more like a deformed Fitzroy Jumper.

Same as every other merger story.

Home ground was to be Western Oval, team.to be Fitzroy Bulldogs, Footscray weren't too happy and neither were the members.

I mean, let's face it. Nothing on that jumper represents the Bulldogs. Could even be a candidate for a modern Fitzroy jumper if they were still in the AFL.
 
I'd consider buying it just to burn it.

What a takeover that was.

Home ground was to be Western Oval, team..

Only a training ground and even then training was to be shared with Optus Oval
 
Often wonder had the deal not been so lop-sided towards Fitzroy, whether they might have gotten away with it...

I was there in '89 for the fightback campaign albeit only 12 at the time. Still remember the passion, I think Footscray would've resisted regardless.
