With the Trade Period officially open, the Western Bulldogs have wasted no time making a name for themselves, with several players being linked to and from the club. With Free Agents (both restricted and unrestricted), Draft Points, Future Picks and Academy prospects all muddying the waters, it's up to Matt and Nick to make sense of all the madness and paint a clear picture of how the Bulldogs seek to navigate their way through the off season.

The season may have ended with the Western Bulldogs falling at the very last hurdle in the Grand Final, but Matt and Nick enter the studio this week in a mood to celebrate what has been a highly successful season. In addition to reminiscing over some of the more memorable moments of the year, the focus quickly turns to the off-season, as the pair address the key names being mooted to and from the club during the upcoming Trade and Free Agency Period.

One final hurdle remains for the Western Bulldogs this season - the Grand Final clash against Melbourne. Settle in with Matt and Nick as they undertake a thorough preview of the biggest match of the season.

The Western Bulldogs are in the Grand Final! As you'd expect, Matt and Nick are pretty pleased with how things sit following the Bulldogs remarkable Preliminary Final performance and have plenty of time to single out the heroics of some of the lesser-known headline-makers, as yet another team performance helped the Bulldogs to progress to the last week of September. 

Matt and Nick return to the studio to bask in the glories of one of the Bulldogs most famous September victories. As the race for the Premiership narrows to four, the two look at some of the themes that they see emerging from this year's finals campaign, and discuss the keys to what is set to be a massive Preliminary Final encounter

For the first time since The Salty Bulldog started up, Matt and Nick gather to celebrate a Bulldogs final's victory. An air of confidence sweeps through the studio after a run of defeats, with special praise being reserved for a dreadlocked small forward, while several unheralded lesser lights redeemed themselves from previous finals showings with strong games in difficult cirmcumstances

Another defeat for the Bulldogs sees them drop out of the Top 4, and must now face Essendon in a do-or-die Elimination Final encounter. Matt and Nick assess the situation in a massive finals preview, as they look at how to restructure the team in the hopes of getting back into winning form at the business end of the season.

The Western Bulldogs continued to stumble their way into the finals, putting in arguably their worst performance of the season at the weekend. Suddenly, their place in the top 4 is in real danger, and as Matt and Nick attempt to piece the performance together, more uncertainty lay ahead in the coming days, as the Bulldogs approach a battle to decide the top 4. 

Complications galore pursued the Western Bulldogs this week, as they not only relinquished top spot after a defeat at the weekend but have also lost one of their star players for the rest of the season. Matt and Nick sit down to try and piece together where we go from here, and how to restructure the side for the remainder of the year. 

After several years toiling away in several different studios, study rooms, teachers desks and from the comfort of their own home, The Salty Bulldog has finally reached Episode No. 100. Join Matt and Nick as they celebrate this achievement by recounting some of their favourite memories of the podcast, while they also celebrate the Bulldogs yet again finishing the round on top of the AFL ladder, while the VFL side enjoy another thrilling comeback.
