THE Western Bulldogs leave today for a week-long training camp in Queenstown, New Zealand, that will include all senior players.

However Adam Cooney and Brian Lake will be among a handful of Dogs on a modified program.

Lake had a hip arthroscope last month after having clean-up surgery on his knee after the Dogs' season ended.

In all serousness I didnt think that Australians needed a passport to get into NZ? I went there when I was a kid and I've never had a passport.

Forget where you are going...you need a passport to exit Australia! If you are boarding an international flight, you need a passport.

You need a passport to enter New Zealand. You just don't need a visa if you're an Australian citizen. The same goes for Kiwis coming this way.

For a history nut, you're not much on geography.
The Tasman Sea seperates Australia and New Zealand.
Bass Strait is between us and Tasmania.
At least that's the way I understand it. Odd really.
BTW I suck at history and mostly geography too. But I'm awesome at both compared to maths.

Blame Mrs Mathias the geography teacher at Footscray High back in the '70s. She made geography the dullest topic ever.
