If someone was going to outshine the Western Bulldogs win on the internet, it may as well be Chris Hemsworth.

The Bulldogs won in a nail biting clash against Greater Western Sydney on Saturday night sending them through to the grand final for the first time since 1961.

Hemsworth, a big fan of the team, posted a photo to Instagram celebrating the win but it's his muscles in the picture that are getting all the attention.

The photo has been liked over 400,000 and appeared all across the internet, giving the Bulldogs some international media coverage they probably weren't expecting.

Bulldogs yesssssss!!!!!!!!! #westernbulldogs @westernbulldogs #grandfinal #letsdothis
