Bulldogs Army to Invade Vegas! Gould Calls on Aussie Fans to Paint the Strip Blue & White

Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs General Manager Phil Gould has issued a rallying cry to Aussie fans: descend upon Las Vegas and show the world what it means to be a Bulldog! As the club expands its global footprint, Gould is hoping to see the Las Vegas Strip awash in blue and white as the team participates in the NRL’s historic third season in North America.
The Bulldogs are one of four NRL teams announced on Wednesday to be taking part in the upcoming season, marking a significant step in the league's ambition to build a strong presence in the United States. This expansion isn’t just about playing games; it’s about building a fanbase and showcasing the excitement of rugby league to a new audience. Gould believes that the passionate Bulldogs supporters are key to making this a success.
“We want to see a sea of blue and white in Vegas,” Gould stated. “Our fans are the heart and soul of this club, and we need them to represent us proudly in the US. It’s a chance to show the world the passion and commitment of the Bulldogs family.”
The NRL’s expansion into North America has been a long time coming, and this season promises to be a landmark moment for the sport. Beyond the on-field action, the league is investing heavily in grassroots development and community engagement to ensure the long-term sustainability of rugby league in the US.
For Bulldogs fans planning to make the trip, Gould’s message is clear: come prepared to support the team and embrace the Vegas experience. The club is working on organizing fan events and activities throughout the week leading up to the games, providing opportunities for supporters to connect and celebrate the club’s presence in the US. Expect merchandise and opportunities to show your colours throughout the city.
This isn't just a game; it's a statement. It's a chance for the Bulldogs to cement their place as a global powerhouse and for Aussie fans to demonstrate the unwavering loyalty that defines the club. So, pack your bags, don your blue and white, and get ready to take Vegas by storm!
The Bulldogs’ participation in the US competition represents a new chapter in the club’s history, and Gould is confident that with the support of their fans, they can achieve great things. This is more than just an expansion; it’s a chance to build a legacy.
