As if the money pouring in through their dog racing endeavours wasn't enough, the Fremantle Dockers have taken the ute down the bank and loaded it up with cash thanks to their new major sponsor - LG Electronics. LG have jumped on board for 3 years and tipped in an estimated three and a half million dollars, taking over from Bankwest who decided the Dockers were no longer campy enough to fit with the banks image.
Unfortunately, much like Bankwest refused to give out free samples of their product LG have not yet indicated whether members will receive free DVD recorder thingos. An announcement is expected within the next few days so make sure you've signed up for membership just in case.
There will also be an added bonus for Fremantle. Like the Dockers anchor, the LG smiley face has become one of the most easily recognised corporate logos in the world, but, as part of the deal, they are now expected to release two new revised logos to represent two of the leaders at Fremantle, Peter Bell and Matthew Pavlich.
