Record profit of $ 18 million for Western Bulldogs

The Western Bulldogs have reported a total profit of more than $ 18 million for 2018, the vast majority of which comes from the value of the freehold lands attributed to the club as part of the redevelopment of the Whitten Oval area.

"This is an exceptional result that all our club staff should be proud of, given their individual contributions," said General Manager Ameet Bains.

"This result was achieved with a reduction in balance of payments financing under the competitive balance."

According to the club, the financial return "includes a profit of $ 2,207,274 before the redevelopment activities and a profit of $ 15,887,059 from the redevelopment activities", leaving the club with $ 45.8 million in badets and no bank debt.
