This was at the bottom of article in the Telegraph about the new sponsor thought it deserved its own thread.
On the recruitment front, the Bulldogs have all but settled on their roster for next season.
Boom forward Corey Harawira-Naera will be one of seven new faces at Belmore after salary cap constraints forced Pay to rebuild his roster.
Hill says the club is not actively shopping for any more players but have “some wriggle room in the cap” to add the right signing. He says a resolution in the different coaching sagas currently hanging over clubs like Penrith and the Tigers will have a ripple effect on the player market.
“We’re not actively pursuing anyone at the moment. There appears to be some movements in coming weeks and months once all the coaching drama is sorted out. If the right opportunity presents itself then, we’ll look at it,” he said.
He also shut down rumours the club was looking to offload Michael Lichaa to bring in off-contract hooker James Segeyaro.
“There’s been speculation around Lichaa for time but we’ve had no formal discussions with his management so I’m not sure where that has come from,” he said.
Hill also indicated the club would be looking to take their home games to the new Western Sydney Stadium in 2020 once the refurbishment of ANZ Stadium commences in late 2019. Canterbury are also in a position to take home games interstate and to the bush.
Their efforts to lock down an interim home ground have been stifled by the uncertainty surrounding the start date of the redevelopment.
