Big mistake imo, soon we'll need to replace Jac and I don't understand the fascination with Wilson, personally I think Skelton is the much better player

He's too good to be playing reserves every week

The game went pretty much how I expected, it was a close low scoring game in wet conditions, we created some opportunities but just couldn't convert them into points, we made too many mistakes but were still able to stay in the game and that's the most pleasing aspect for me. Every loss is a...

It's true mate, Time to pop the champagne and start getting carried away. Actually you should probably be the first to jump on twitter and thank Gus.

Only turns 18 this month. O'Neill should be the first half promoted.

Unless Presto is moving to lock it ain't happening.

Do I expect to win, no .... but I do expect us to frustrate the hell out of them and give them a fight.

It either Hynes or Burton, drinkwater won't get a look in for the halves, the ladyboy has failed multiple times already and Walker lol

Kid had some skill but was never able to take his game to the next level, other kids came through and overtook him. Hes only real choice was to leave if he wants to continue his career in rugby league, I wish him well.

It's a bullsh#t fine but we need to move on, we've got more important things to do, not to mention Gus will find that kinda money in his glovebox.

Souths suck, only the refs are keeping them in it and Penrith are still a good side but no longer what they were the last couple years.

Lol and here comes the weak generation looking for an easy path in life.

Because we are no longer irresponsible with our cap, 650k for a guy who's yet to establish himself as a first grader is ridiculous. He may one day be worth 650k but that day isn't today and it's a sure fire way to piss off current bulldogs like Preston and Curran who bust their guts week in week...

Ilias is rubbish, we're a team on the up we don't need more passengers

Disappointing end to what was another strong season forthe dogs, credit to the Dragons though, their forwards were far too strong today.

Buzz getting desperate now the dogs are winning.

I think he only mentioned 14 as that's the most logical position he'll debut in.

I can definitely see the panthers chasing one of our young halves now Jett clearly has reportedly signed with the Warriors

Ahh Jackson going for one last cash grab knowing he won't get another Nrl gig again.

Why would we for give up anything Sezer when O'Neill will be a better optitnext year.

I think he's that giant that plays for the Dragons

Such a weapon, it's now or never to try him in the forwards imo.

Oloapu if he comes back might have to evolve into a kurt Mann type forward, I've always thought O'neill and Woods would be our future halves combo, Burton may also need to convert into a centre or Lock at some stage if they all warrant selection.

Attitude is everything

Probably in the toilet stall with pinga.

Gotta earn it first, there's other forwards busting their arse week in week out in cup who deserve the chance to pull on the jersey in first grade before this guy imo.

Imo if everyone stays fit Burton may be the only one picked from the dogs, Crichton and jac are the only others in contention but I'd have To'o, lomax, best and turbo ahead at this stage.

Unlucky for Patolo, but his misfortune might be someone else's opportunity ... our nsw cup forwards had really strong games today. Liam Knight, 201m Lipoi Hopoi, 176m Jack Todd, 186m Poasa Faamausili, 155m

Beast

What a flog

Proud of the boys for the season they've had but a Disappointing way to end, just wasn't our day unfortunately, as for the wahs, their Matts and Ball sides are gonna be really strong every year going forward, they should be able to keep most of their good juniors now that they have a proper pathway.

What's with the white tape on the fins jerseys

Inconsistency has always been the wahs problem, every year these kinda performances are like clockwork.

Couldn't agree more, I haven't been invested in the first grade side for Several years now due to poor performances and ongoing disappointment but I'm starting to enjoy watching first grade again, even when we lose I'm walking away feeling proud to be a doggies fan.

Good luck to him, it's a shame he didn't stay with us, kid had potential.

Gus freeing up another spot

Hull FC is building quite the roster

Gov needs to put a massive pause on immigration until the housing and infrastructure are ready to accommodate them.

No way they let go of the only established prop they have left and we don't need anymore backs.

I'm hoping over the next year or 2 Booth can convert his frame into muscle, until them I don't think he'll be first grade ready.

Last 2 tries were in his first game for the dogs last year before he got injured.

Curran is definitely playing some minutes at prop this week

I'm ok with this, never thought we'd retain him after this year anyway and didn't really see where he'd fit in moving forward with Mann and Morrin in first grade and Damon Marshall most likely moving up to take the 13 in cup next year.

Has Joel heard this rumour yet.

The Tetevano signing was definitely a panic buy. Thank God it's only for this year.

Let's face it, whoever they go with if SC doesn't get picked it's only a good thing for us, might even put a chip on his shoulders over that period to prove them wrong.

To be honest, on current form I wouldn't even be picking SC for origin 1, I'm not saying he's playing poorly by any means but my origin centres would be Best and Turbo.

Can't believe so many snowflakes on the kennel were suicidal over losing Avo, give me Xerri any day of the week.

Massive game next week in SG ball, I believe we play the undefeated roosters .... to be the best you've gotta beat the best, rise to the challenge doggies.

1265 before updates for Roger this week

Anyone know why lipoi Hopoi didn't play, is he injured?

So long parra scum, thanks for the warm up

We may not have the quality of players to win the comp but geez CC has done an amazing job this year with getting all the players to buy in to what we're trying to create, really shows how toxic guys like Tpj and Rfm were to the side.

While I still believe we can make the finals, imo this was always a building year.

What do people think of the Sam Hughes incident, do we think he'll get suspended?

Surely he keeps his spot over Wilson going forward

I was Not 100% sold on him after last year but he's slowly changing my mind, we may not be winning every game yet but he's definitely got the team in every game.

This thread will be fun tonight

When I saw 1968 in the name it explained everything

Nsw cup will be interesting next year, we will have Hayes, Kautoga, Vale, Smith and Mataale and vying for spots, Lajuan Vito might age out of flegg too.

Well he's definitely not a winger for a start

It's been a long time for both the team and us fans but I truly believe in the next 2 years we will be in a really good place, having a roster littered with talented juniors will be a sight to see. Gone will be the constant mercenaries who were only here for a pay check and never had the pride...

Got a feeling there'll be a late inclusion or 2 this week, can't see Tracey playing with a calf strain risking further injury.

I have a hunch jac will finish his career with south Sydney. Wonder if there's anyone their we could trade him for.

Only forward I would want from parra is hopgood

Dangerous throw ... I think not, more like one charge for being a bad motherfu#ker .... keep up the aggression Sammy boy.

He's off contract this year, so if we don't give him a chance soon he will leave for an opportunity elsewhere

I like what I've seen from him so far, he and Mason Phillips are definitely ones to watch over the next couple years, good to have some youth coming through to put the pressure on our first grade players

I forgot about Sam Hughes bro, so Liam Knight would be the first one dropped from that side. I'll update the original team list so everyone can stop looking at his name lol

The Bulldogs and drama get the most clicks end of story .... fu@k the media.

I think Xerri has a big future with us, however I think CC will bring Jac and Wilson straight back in

Forget about him lol, drop liam knight

Assuming Kikau, King, Mann, Tracey and Taaffe are all out this week this is what I would go with. 1. Joash Papalii 2. Josh Addo-Carr 3. Stephen Crichton 4. Jacob Kiraz 5. Blake Wilson 6. Matt Burton 7. Toby Sexton 8. Samuel Hughes 9. Reed Mahoney 10. Poasa Faamausili 11. Josh Curran 12. Jaemon...

I think this week is the perfect time to give some of the kids a shot at first grade, we're playing Melbourne in Melbourne and we're decimated with injuries, tell the young guys to run hard, tackle hard, play what's in front of them and enjoy the experience with nothing to lose.

You've been looking at the wrong team list, try SG Ball

Or he could play with a chip on his shoulder and go out there to prove people like belly wrong. A short term contract might be worth the gamble.

Well that is good news, hopefully he can add muscle to his frame and unlock his potential. We could sure use some luck with finding some forwards.

Pretty sure Gus said recently he'll be back playing I May.

Hope someone smashes Napa for all the money he stole from us

Gus just said a number of flegg boys will be playing in this one so I expect quite a few changes to the side posted.

I got slightly better than Hoppa vibes from him at fullback

I see the jersey flegg game has been postponed also.

Good tackle imo, nothing in it.

Would be great if he can become our alpha over the next year or 2

Agreed, he may not end up our long term 5/8 but until some of those kids are ready, this Burton isn't a 5/8 talk needs to stop, everyone needs to realise he is the best option we have at the moment until someone else comes along or emerges.

Not the first time CC has under used the bench forwards, it's almost like Max King is the only one he trusts out there and I absolutely agree with Mann getting more minutes and Salmon getting less if not dropped all together, I don't think having both of them benefits our side.

Jeral Skelton would be a very handy 18th man

For Those saying the better team lost tonight, I disagree, yes we had a very poor second half but we earned that win from the football we played in the first half, we completely out played them and earned that half time lead.

Crichton doesn't have the speed to be a top fullback

Tracey should have been moved to fullback when Taaffe went off, critta offers more to the team in the centres imo ... I'd also like to add how many 6 again square ups did the ref give tonight.

Very happy to walk away with the 2 points but the Only way to describe that game is. First half - near perfect Second half - disgraceful

Never doubted you Isaac

Xavier Willison would be a good pick-up if the broncs can't keep them all.

I like the change but watch CC give him no more than 10 minutes.
