With their stellar performance, the Bulldogs have cultivated a reputation that’s hard to beat. Everyone is talking about their breathtaking defense, unmatched teamwork, and what seems like an unshakable spirit.

A Record Like No Other

Let’s break it down: the Bulldogs hold an impressive cumulative conference record of 65 wins, 6 losses, and 11 draws. That’s a whopping average of less than one conference loss each season! It’s almost like they’ve found the secret sauce to success. And if that’s not enough, the team has conceded just 67 goals over their 82 conference matches in the same timeframe.

Shutouts Galore!

Over the last seven years, 61 out of their 109 wins (around 55.9%) have come from shutout victories. In more recent times, that number has jumped even higher: 43 out of 65 wins in the last four seasons (approximately 66.2%) were achieved without letting a single goal slip by. Clearly, when you face the Bulldogs, you’re in for a tough game!

Star Players Shine Bright
