A bulldog for me,
A bulldog for me,
If your not a bulldog your no good to me,

When the toughest will fall,

Mascot/Nickname: BulldogsPlympton Football Club was playing as early as 1921 in the Mid-Southern League but the current club was formed in 1937 by a local resident Robert McGhee, a former Victorian and Essendon supporter; hence the club colours. However, the chosen emblem was the Bulldog which still applies. Up until the 1970s, McGhee’s wife May made all the club’s lace-up guernseys. The clubrooms were renovated in 1979, when the on-field performances were also smartened up by the appointment of ex-Port Adelaide star Wayne Broadbridge as coach who took Plympton to a premiership. This success was followed by the appointment of ex-West Adelaide Reserves coach Trevor Potts, who led the team to the Grand Final every year he coached before the club joined the S.A.F.A. in 1990 In S.A.F.A. it proved extremely competitive, playing in Grand Finals in 1990 and 1992, then when S.A.F.A. folded it joined the amateurs in Division 2 and since then has spent most of its time in Division 3. The record holder for games played is club stalwart John Williams who played 435 games and then became the club’s chief administrator.

Clearly the Bulldog's day as they got out of the blocks in fine running style in the first quarter and continued on in the second to lead by 8 kicks at the main break, although it could have been 9 if the quarter had been a couple of seconds longer and perhaps more given their points tally. The Hawks would have been somewhat shell shocked by the scoreline on their home ground at half time and a le
