Quick Scoop: Western Bulldogs from which state?

If you’ve heard the chant “Sons of the West” and wondered where “the West” actually is, here’s the short version: it’s the western suburbs of Melbourne, in the state of Victoria.

  • The Western Bulldogs are based in Footscray, a suburb in Melbourne’s inner west, in Victoria.
  • The club’s official base is Whitten Oval (Mission Whitten Oval) in Footscray, Victoria.
  • They play in the Australian Football League (AFL), representing Melbourne’s western region rather than a whole state like Western Australia or South Australia.

So if you’re answering “Western Bulldogs from which state?” for a quiz, forum thread, or pub debate, the correct answer is: Victoria.

“Western” here means the western suburbs of Melbourne – not Western Australia.
