    Official Lachlan Galvin Discussion

    Is Sexton the first player to ever get dropped? Why are all these journos getting bent out of shape on his behalf? It’s elite sport, not ‘everyone gets a ribbon’.

    Galvin often looked out of sync with the team against the Broncs at 5/8. Hopefully his creativity works at half cause he's pretty impulsive and I'm not sure he can contain it. Couldn't get a much better draw to try it for a few weeks I guess.

    62 miss tackles - we missed the record by one!!

    Same producer as MAFs I think. Bailey was way better at first receiver tonight.

    The bench looks better. Good Team First lesson for LG won’t hurt. Hope our halves kill it. Dogs by 14

    Bulldogs throw shark a lifeline

    My ACL snapped and withered - scans show two dangly bits that don't meet in the middle. Knee is fine in a straight line but doesn't like going sideways. Being able to play top sport with it does happen but is pretty super-human.

    Send Galvin to NSW cup.

    We've had our first origin-affected season for ages and a lot of injuries and suspensions through the last couple of months. Galvin's signing added to the disruption but it's not the only thing affecting our form. We either got him now or Parra did. It's better for us long term IMO and we...

    Sexton to quit Bulldogs

    I like all our spine players but overall it's mid range IMO. Toby's the most mid for me and we just need something different. We succeed on the back of strong defence and great players like Kiks, Kiraz, King and Critta outside the spine. Burto's long kicking's a great asset and Tracey goes all...

    Florimo said they wanted Preston in an interview I saw.

    Dean Ritchie psycho-analysing the tweet and getting all bent out of shape like a 12 year old was pretty weird. Though Tallis made a good point that what Luai and Teruva did was no worse.

    I watched him a bit at centre and wing and I rate him as genuine FG, back then at least. Better suited to centre IMO. Not express but decent pace. Saw him in a NSW cup game recently and he was pretty ordinary, but I reckon he'll become decent FG backup at least.

    Kiraz 18th man Blues

    Kiraz would be there as cover for To'o who hurt his knee again. Doubt he would be 18th man, but could play.

    Official Bulldogs sign Finau Latu

    Ennis knew how to use Tolman as a decoy but he was a magnet for Lichaa every time. Lichaa cruelled him and the team and is still our worst buy ever IMO. Agree about Tracey. He'll never be a Walsh or Ponga but he does a pretty good job at a cut-price Teddy. Takes so much pressure off the...

    OFFICIAL | PRE-GAME Rnd 17 vs Panthers @ CommBank Thu 26th June 7.50pm

    We've done it before. Beat Dragon's in the 67 finals to end 11 straight, beat the roosters in '76 finals to end their run and beat Parra in the 84 Gf after their 3 in a row. Also knocked Raiders and Broncs out in the '95 finals to end their period of dominance. It's been a while but time to go...

    Great loss

    There's never a great loss but at least then 2004 final loss to NQ put us on a path to win the GF.
