Re: Bulldog legend - John Schultz passing
Gentleman John Schulz’s playing record confirms him as one of our all time greats.
I feel privileged to have met him, albeit briefly, a few times.
A club legend. Lovely bloke, old school charm and RWB through and through. Condolences to friends and family.

Gentleman John, a sad day for the club, was just awesome seeing him on stage for the 2016 Premiership and then walking back down when the team all got up there, then standing in front giving the team a clap for what they just achieved for the club looking so damn proud of the boys.

Re: Bulldog legend - John Schultz passing
Very sad news.
The way he was embraced as part of the club in his later years was very nice to see.
Hopefully we make his family proud with a performance fitting to a great man on Friday night.

Re: Bulldog legend - John Schultz passing
Sad news indeed. A great man, a Bulldog champion who will never be forgotten. It was wonderful to see him centre stage in 2016. He was a hero of mine when I first started following the Bulldogs. Condolences to family and friends. Vale John. You have left your mark on those who come after you.

Re: Bulldog legend - John Schultz passing
One of the absolute top shelf legends of our club, both on and off the field.
I've always felt that guys like John personified the very best of what may me identify with the Bulldog narrative.

Vale John … such a great bloke.
Thank you for making my son feel so welcome in 2018 in the club rooms after the loss to Hawthorn. He was distraught and you took him under your wing and introduced him to every player. You made his whole trip to Melbourne worth while.
Condolences to family and friends xx

His funeral will be on the 17th at 2 pm and televised for those interested.
Hopefully he has some influence up there and get us another flag, I am sure he will be trying.
Bring back the biff
