You decide to discuss the user, rather than the topic.

Your comments are extremely hypocritical considering how opinionated your views are.

if you think users shut down a conversation by the discussing it. than that's an interesting observation and one that makes little sense.

If anything its comments like you have littered this discussion with, that cause the discussion collapse.

A bit of self reflection would serve you well Wendog.
Is this serious?

You have a go at me for explanating why posters feel as tho they get shut down by Dinkum and Nat for expressing their views?

I was unaware that you were a spokesperson for all users on the kennel.

You have made this thread go off topic, that is fact . everything you said is irrelevant to this topic, ergo you are causing issues.

if you would like to discuss this further please take it offline, however the people you accuse of doing wrong in this thread, have done nothing of the sort.

Any further comments in this thread that are off topic will be deleted.

My 4 year old is hanging for the Footy season to start. I think I have created a monster. Everything he does he somehow refers back to the Bulldogs.
Love to hear that mate

Good on you mate. They should arrive this week. They’ll play their hearts out. Hopefully it’s enough to get us into the 8 and things will get much better from next year ;)

A top 8 won’t be easy with our young squad but definitely achievable
You know other teams are always cautious when they play us especially seeing how we finished season 2019
I’m personally confident that progress has been made and it will show on the footy field this year.
Let’s hope that Lewis & JMK kick on,they play big a massive role in us moving forward

The trouble with the current situation is, is that fans are frustrated and want to know more, because lets face it, weve had very lean years lately.

The problem is, if they divulge too much info about the goings on, it could be used against them, as we have seen in the past.

As a fan it sucks being left in the dark about the future (specifics), but I also understand the reasoning behind it.. double edge sword..

if we cant assemble a good solid roster for 2021 and performances to match, than I will be calling for blood

I think the problem is there's just a handful of decent player still on the market for 2021.

We'll have to look more to ESL like Canberra have and hope that some of our boys come good like Wakeham.

Other than that maybe players who are looking to move on from their clubs like DWZ did.

The year is young.. I reckon at least half a dozen decent players will try and break contract this year, if recent seasons are anything to go by...

Spot on. There will be opportunities to recruit we can't yet see.
Any coaching merry-go-round will also contribute to that assuming at least 1 or 2 coaches get punted this year.

That's about 60 or so, and what do we need 2, 3 maybe 4 NRL level players? Most of the above are IMHO not much better than what we have and probably wouldn't even be considered, but there are plenty enough to fill the spots that do need filling. I highlighted a few that I think might fit if our current younger players don't develop.

Pretty sure Wighton has re-signed with the Vikings

SuperCoach is talking up Molo as a big unit

Kahu was the one who picked up a dogs drop out that went 3m before it stopped to score a try, yeah? Doofus
