Official Round 3 - Bulldogs vs Sea Eagles - Discussion Thread

[Cosmo24]

My excitement for rugby league this year has dissipated thanks to Covid. This team announcement changes nothing.
Some of the team changes are mind boggling. I’ll still support them on Sunday but won’t be investing too much energy. I hope we can get a lot out of this season but the 2021 season can’t come soon enough

It’s a handicap

At least he gets a good car park

 

[Novdoggie]

Here is a prediction. DCE puts up a mid field kick/bomb and Tommy Turbo out jumps DWZ to score, but it won't be enough.

Dogs by 2

I've worked it out... Pay is trying to beat Des at his own game by playing with his head. He knows how tactical and analytical Des is so hes trying to unsettle his preparations then do a Des special involving a plethora of last minute changes. Surely this is the only reason for the dismal attempt of a FG team list.

 

[EXPLORER]

That’s what Pay said..

Haha,
I'm not bagging out Pay. Lol
The team list is rubbish,
But that's because the squad is rubbish.
2021 can't come quick enough.
Be great to hear some positive news regarding signings for next year.

My barber in Brisbane is relayed to wakeham, from what I have been told he is a big drinker and party animal . That’s What I heard and that he’s competitive. From what I saw from
Him this year he hasn’t looked interested . I’d give him 7 and Lewis or Cogger 6. Cogger is safe and really fired end of last year he scored a ripper try against panthers or eels from about 20 out

It you build it, they will come

 

[DoggyStyla]

I dunno mate. Remember Dan Mortimer? He faded after an initial flash in the pan despite his pedigree. Unless Lewis really clicks into gear he’s headed to be a squad player only (yes, depending on who we recruit and what happens with Foran too).

Foran is about cooked and ready to be served!

From how Britt played in round one and two (as well as preseason) he deserves it over RFM. Are we even re-signing RFM? If we're it's low priority (lower than Elliott). The only reason I can see starting RFM over Britt is to add more attacking threat on the edge to compliment Jackson but RFM hasn't been good for us in recent times.

I don’t think RFM should be re-signed. He’s had plenty of opportunities and just hasn’t clicked for my liking. His spot should go to somebody younger now

Agree he's showed plenty of promise at times but I wouldn't be offering him big bucks at all... He's great to have off the bench but I think he will want to start somewhere

I'm just watching a classic match on nrl.com. Dogs vs Warriors 2003. Dogs down 16-4, but they just had so many points in them to fight their way back. They played so much faster!!!! Mark O'Meley sprinted towards the collision and Shifty would do something different in attack every set of 6. Front row: Ogre, Price and big Willie.
I'm going to go cry in the corner now as this current team list is just mud.

 

[TalDog]

Let’s just hope we see foz and wakeham paired up, and Averillo in there too.

very excited to finally see our boys play again, can’t wait..!!

Armadillo and foz need to be halves pay won’t do it until the last round

 

[Donkey Slayer]

Cogger will play well, Lewis will just make his tackles and do absolutely nothing in every other area ... Then when Foran is fit Cogger will get dropped... Lewis is a fucking cockroach surviving of his uncle's name.

Lol

 

[Dogtime]

Are you fucking kidding me Pay has no fucking clue. Arrrrgh.

Great to see Lewis and Cogger paired. Great move as gives them both another chance. Absolutely the right thing to do. Treat our coach with respect please.

 

[Dogtime]

Now you can say it for real.

Disgusting. Wasn't looking forward to Sunday, now I'm dreading it.

Get a life. Your either a supporter or not. Your not the fucken coach. True doggies support and respect our coach and whatever team we run out. Go Dogs

 

[Dogtime]

Wow. Sue hasn't played in 8 months and somehow leapfrogs Renouf, Ogden and RFM to start??

Lewis and Cogger ahead of Wakeham? Why did they re-sign him if they see him as 4th string? Pay continues to amaze.

Wakeham will get his chance. With 18 straight weeks of footy we will be rotating our roster. Wakeham and Foran saved for a game we can realistically win...next week.

 

[Dogtime]

The only shining light that i see is that Pay wont be keeping his job!
#payout

Pay set to sign 2 year extension. I support this move by the Club to secure his services for another 2 years when he gets to use his own roster. We are with you Deano.

Back of last season RFM was finding his feet as an impacting middle forward. His resigning should be a priority. What games have you dog haters been watching?
