I'm still bitter about not getting last years. I had every one since 1993 with "Bulldogs 96, More Savage" the highlight, then last season I blew it :(
 
Ive seen it awhile back when i went into the club shop to put my guernsey on layby it was only a4 size but of what i saw it looked pretty good they were only making a few changes i think it was only changing a few of the names that got mixed up.
 
Can u see that thing that Rob Murphy was meant to have on his arm about "No War" or sumthen?????
 
The posters were supposed to be ready for the Brisbane practice match apparently but weren't because I aksed :)
 
hey gridlocked im not sure if its still on his hand as i only hd a quick glance o the poster and it was on a4 so it was to small to see.

i thought they would have airbrushed it out.

good on him!

good on him for expressing his opinion or having the same opinion as you?

This is terribly dangerous territory and i think it is a pretty immature act.

If he had written "kill all arabs" on his arm would you be just as happy for him to express his opinion as a representative of the Western Bulldogs?
 
good on him for having the same opinion as me AND expressing it.:p

Immature is a word used to much! what's immature about what he did?

If he had kill all arabs he would be expressing that he condones killing.

Peace means he doesn't want people to die, and that should always be a good thing.

Its immature because he has failed to understand the enormity of the act. Hopefully nothing more comes of it, BUT... what if another player somewhere in the afl happens to be a member of say, the KKK.

The thing is, Murphy has made a political statement through the notoriety of his position at our club, he is wearing our uniform in our official team photo. It is more than Rob Murphy, it is the whole organisation being portrayed. What if another player happens to wish to promote the KKK the same way...the only argument you have to say one is ok and one is not ok is that in one case they agree with you and the other they don't.

By trying to promote peace this way, Murphy may have opened the door to others to use their position within the AFL to promote some less agreeable causes.

I agree entirely with Gemma for insert reason here.

Because of Murphy's action and the failure of the Western Bulldogs Football Club administration to keep politics out of footy by refusing to airbrush the political message from the official team photo, there will be one less Western Bulldog member and one less Pet member this year.

I wonder if Murphy realised that his actions would cause a member of the footy club for longer than he has been alive to decide NOT to renew his membership after 25 years? I doubt it. "For every action, there is a reaction." He must not have learned that in school.

My "protest" will be explained to the Western Bulldogs Football Club and has already been sent to a source that may wish to publicise just one small consequence of Murphy's actions. So I guess that something more HAS come of it..... though I doubt the club will care.

How do you know that?

Also, Chicago, i personally don't think it's a very good reason not to renew your membership becuase you differ with a player's opinions. There was a HUGE chance that alot of the bulldogs players don't want war and because one of them showed it you get offended?

Seriously, even if Murp had "KKK rules" on his arm i would still buy a membership.

So many people don't want a war...he's just another one and i don't think it's THAT serious.
