In terms of travel, the Bulldogs will meet Gold Coast at People First Stadium on Sunday 19 July and Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Friday 31 July.

At the Western Bulldogs, May is Member's Month: four huge weeks dedicated to celebrating those who show up in the red, white and blue unconditionally.

Each week in May, a brand-new, member-only prize is revealed, with all members automatically entered into the draw. We’ve already given away a corporate suite, while this week’s prize will see one lucky member take home $1000 worth of Bulldogs Shop vouchers.
