"We make semis. We play top four and we're knocking on the door of winning comps." These are the words of Andrew Bobcat Ryan as he reflects upon his arrival at Belmore in the early days of his career. He came to us from Parramatta where they hoped to play in finals, they hoped to play finals footy.......where we expected to play finals footy, we expected to be in the top four and winning Premierships was our goal. Not like this past season where we were happy enough just to evade the wooden spoon.
We look at clubs like the Roosters, the Storm, with envious eyes.....clubs that have a strong success record, but what we fail to realize is that, this is who we were. This is what they took from us, the belief that they can and will be successful. Somewhere along the line our club seems to have forgotten this simple mantra "We make semis. We play top four and we're knocking on the door of winning comps." Mediocre performances, accepting mediocrity has never and should never be apart of our Bulldog fabric.
With Trent Barrett and his team leading the way in 2021, I can only believe that as a whole..... club, team and fan base that we will make the semis, that we will play top four and that we will be once again be knocking on the door of winning comps. Let all our current and new recruits adopt this as their gospel truth and BELIEVE....that this is who we are.
