Thompson will be let go before TPJ.TPJ talks about Gus in his interviews far more than he talks about Baz
I don’t see him leaving but if he does then make a play for Haas

What I got from NRL360 is that Ciraldo doesn't want the Bulldogs. I'm fine with that. I only want one coach and it' ain't him.Qld courier mail back page says gus wants Cameron ciraldo
Dont these kuntz know what a contract is??Trent Barrett’s departure could have huge ramifications for the Bulldogs roster, with a number of high-profile players having signed with the club to play under the former Panthers and Sea Eagles boss.
Playmaker Matt Burton’s future at the club is reportedly uncertain and the premiership winner is able to negotiate with rival clubs come November 1.
Now Tevita Pangai Junior is being linked with a move to the NRL’s newest franchise, the Dolphins, having spent three year under Wayne Bennett at the Broncos.
“This is going to have seismic ramifications in terms of the Bulldogs roster because as much as Trent Barrett hadn’t got on field wins, Matt Burton signed to play under him, Josh Addo-Carr, Brent Naden, Tevita Pangai Junior, next year it is Kikau and it’s Reed Mahoney,” Fox League’s James Hooper said on NRL360.
“So there is already mail that for a player like Tevita Pangai Junior he might look to try and get out and go and join Wayne Bennett at the Dolphins.
“Burton was the big signing for them, and he was also really close to Barrett.
“Another bloke who I know for a fact went there because he wanted to play under Trent was Tevita Pangai Junior.
“There has been strong suggestions today and Wayne Bennett has publicly spoken about the fact that he has a high opinion of Tevita, Tevita may now try and seek a release to go up and join the Dolphins for next season.”
Only a month ago Bennett revealed he would sign the controversial backrower “in a heartbeat”.
Pangai Junior signed a three-year deal with the Bulldogs and would have to seek a release to move north.
The 26-year-old has had his fair share of off-field issues, having been stood down by the Broncos in 2020 for breaching Covid restrictions, as well as serving multiple suspensions.
But Bennett believes he would be able to get the best out of him.
Now uncertainty has permeated through the Bulldogs camp, something these marquee signings were sure had faded away with Barrett at the helm.
The Bulldogs also have two more high-profile recruits joining in 2024, Reed Mahoney and Viliame Kikau, and the NRL360 panel believed they would now be nervous to leave their current sides.
“They would have made their decision clearly thinking Trent Barrett was their coach,” Braith Anasta said.
“Not only that, also thinking there is finally some stability at the club and that the club is going the right direction,” Kent said.
He posts almost every single negative article on here.What about the guy posting all this fucking repetitive bullshit.
What actually is your agenda djdeep....?? Are you a mole or just a p.i.t.a posting everything that gets written FFS!
If anything it’s an opportunity for some cap relief / roster re-shaping. But thanks Cueball, great article .Won't happen.
Gus will keep who he wants to keep.
Be a long thread, would cause RSI .I reckon we needs a thread called "media bullshit" and just post all their crap in there.
If they had Barrett clauses, and they've "contributed" for him towards a 2/10 win record...thats all the effort they could find for their beloved coach, then they can go.They are so committed to Mr 15 percent they’ve been putting exactly that much effort in on recent weeks. Honestly, anyone who wants to walk over a dud coach no longer being here can fuck off. JAC is the only new recruit who gives me genuine I love the club vibes.
The only reason Haas would come to the dogs is to play with TPJ they are best mates. They could both end up at the Dolphins.Ooooooo good call, forgot about Haas. If pangai wants to fuck off to dolphins then we should go all out for him
The Bulldogs don’t want Ciraldo, feeling is mutual… we’re going for proven talent both on the field and at a coaching capacity - our taking a chance on a rookie rubbish is over, thank f###!What I got from NRL360 is that Ciraldo doesn't want the Bulldogs. I'm fine with that. I only want one coach and it' ain't him.
Shane Flanagan ? Cause that’s my pickWhat I got from NRL360 is that Ciraldo doesn't want the Bulldogs. I'm fine with that. I only want one coach and it' ain't him.
Ado carr a king and Vaughn are bulldog type players . Dufty.. so many decisions in defence that are below parThe Bulldogs don’t want Ciraldo, feeling is mutual… we’re going for proven talent both on the field and at a coaching capacity - our taking a chance on a rookie rubbish is over, thank f###!
Interestingly on Braith’s comments last night on recruitment, I agree with him…why have we steered away from a proven formula? Signing “Bulldogs” type players… there’s specific players that fit that mould, that player who values doing those 1%s and extra reps at training, the never say die and play for 80 mins type. Leaders, Winners.
We should have made a play for guys like Finucane, he’s that Bulldog type, in fact, we made him. Him and JJ ripping it up doing 20 hit ups and 40 tackles each would have led the way, set the tone on the field, demanded those to follow them through their actions.
Anasta stated the club literally broke you on arrival to see what your made of…are you made of the tough stuff? Are you prepared to spew your guts out for your mates under adversity- that’s The Bulldogs way, tackle harder, run harder, play harder, start as strong as you finished - we’ll get there! In Gus we trust!!
They make up stuff to fit their narrative. I suspect no one will leave, but some may be forced out of the club if they don't fit into the style the new coach wants.why would pangai have signed to play under baz? didnt he sign because he wanted to move back to sydney? wasnt gus the one that got him here? dont belive this crap
