Ernie Welcomes Akermanis To Bulldogs
One of the Western Bulldogs' most famous supporters is Ernie Sigley. He is very happy with the addition of Akermanis.
Sigley said on his show, "I'm glad he came to the Doggies". But he did have a small problem, fitting all of the stars for the Bulldogs in the forward line. He wanted Akermanis around half forward, with Luke Darcy at full forward. He was saying that Johnson could play forward with Akermanis but changed that when he remembered that Murphy would be playing next season too. So he put Johnson on a wing.
As long as the Bulldogs win, and they have their best chance for many decades, Sigley said, "I don't care what he says". He looked forward to Akermanis and some of his comments by pointing out they "don't want 18 robots" and need "a bit of individuality".
