Please find below a statement from the Western Bulldogs Football Club:

As was publically announced by the Western Bulldogs at the Club's Season Launch in March, Slater and Gordon will once again be one of the Clubs’ platinum partners in season 2016.
 
In January, the Club agreed on a new three-year agreement which will once again see the law firm be one of the Club’s most important corporate supporters.
 
Slater and Gordon provided its Footscray offices free of charge for the three weeks of the campaign in 1989 to save the Footscray Football Club. 

Since that time, it has contributed millions of dollars in sponsorship to the Club and it remains a vital cog in the Club’s resurgence on and off the field.
 
Most of the law firm’s support has been in the area of the Club’s community services ranging from the Care for Kids campaign of the early 1990s right through to the Robert Rose Cup and #disabilityinclusion games between the Bulldogs and Collingwood over the last three years and extending to the next three.
 
The Bulldogs regret the inaccurate reporting of this matter yesterday.
