    Daily Telegraph/Rothfield Tino testing open market..

    We need playmakers. Tino is a great player but not the difference for us.

    2025 Final 4 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

    One thing I find really odd is the whole end of a dynasty line that keeps getting pushed. Dynasty’s aren’t built on streaks, it’s about competing every year and winning 4-5 premierships over an 8-10 year window or longer. The storm with Smith, Slater and Cronk were a dynasty, but didn’t win...

    Dogs sign Dolphins halfback O'Sullivan - Brent Read (Code Sports)

    What’s with the outrage? We need an experienced half who is happy to sit in reserves most of the year but has the ability to not fall apart in first grade if there is a crisis. We have a 20 year old halfback, and his backup is a 19 year old with no NRL experience and issues with staying fit...

    Does Woods start at seven in round one?

    He needs another 7-10 games in reserves first. His body is still growing, and you can see that he is starting to piece things together, but there’s no way you can throw him in round 1 unless he has a crazy pre season and puts on 5kg of lean muscle. I’m not too concerned about his recurring...

    Does Stephen Critchon make our greatest team?

    On ability he is easily the greatest centre we’ve ever had. On accomplishments he isn’t.

    Next Wave of Talent

    Spinks could be a nice Kikau replacement eventually. Woods is obviously one of the premier talents going around. I fully expect Latu to be in the top 17 come round 1 next year.

    Opinion Needs for 2026

    I have big faith in Latu, he is a top talent, so hopefully with his size, we can focus more on Fullback/Hooker.
  8. Bulldog_4_Life

    Opinion Needs for 2026

    I think next year will be more transitional then anything else. Too many questions: 1. Can Rinakima or Sua make a big leap or do we need to look for a Monty replacement externally. 2. Can Woods make a step up and start to challenge Burton/Galvin towards the end of next year? 3. Can Todd/Latu...

    Who needs to be culled

    I wouldn’t mind him on the bench as a utility, but I just hope he isn’t the full time hooker.
  10. Bulldog_4_Life

    Who needs to be culled

    With no hooker, then next year is a right off. I think next year Burton and Galvin will start in the halves but Woods should be able to take over at the backend of the year. I really hope Tracey, Salmon, Hayward and Curran are gone too. We need to get some size into the team. We get out...

    Official Semi Final vs Penrith @ Accor Sunday 4pm

    If we can play with controlled aggression in the fast 20 mins, and get the fans going, then it has the potential to be one of the great nights for this club

    ‘Killer’ and the jaw-breaker: Meet the bench enforcers of Belmore

    Mann, Sitili and Hayes are fantastic off the bench, now just imagine if we had another big body off the bench instead of wasting it on a utility. Hopefully Latu makes the bench next year and brings just as much impact as these guys.

    News NRL world erupts over staggering news about Stephen Crichton ahead of Panthers showdown

    Its the latter two. Dogs knew it was a sprain pretty early on but let the media believe it was a syndesmosis because that was a bigger story right after the game compared to the result itself. It’s pretty reckless to let him play on it, no injury gets better by playing on it, and he will just...

    Need holiday suggestions

    You can break it down into three sections: Cheap and super fun - Thailand - Vietnam You would live like a king for a few days on a small budget. The money goes really far and you can stay in the best villas/hotels for next to nothing. A meal and a drink would probably set you back $5-$7 AUD...

    Official Semi Final vs Penrith @ Accor Sunday 4pm

    Critta looked like he was in a bad state even yesterday, so I would be surprised if he starts. But I would not be surprised if he is on the bench as 17th man.

    Official Dogs sign Leo Thompson (2026)

    Not massive but not small either. He is explosive though so that’s what matters, it’s not size but aggression we need.

    Official Injury updates

    Winning next week is going to be so massive for us moving forward because even though we probably get bounced in the preliminary final, we really need to get that first finals win under Ciraldo and not get bounced in straight sets

    Official Dogs sign Leo Thompson (2026)

    Thompson is going to be so big for us next year. If both he and Latu work out then we really could change our pack over night.

    Jason Taylor

    We under utilize Xerri, Kikau, Preston. We rely so heavily on Critta and Kiraz. Anytime Xerri has a big game for us, we see just how balanced we look because teams can’t collapse on Critta and Kiraz.

    Official Sam Hughes contract extension

    There will be a big difference if Latu comes in as well. Another year of Hayes development will help as well. Todd not kicking on (due to injuries) after he got his chance this year did hurt us. Because that’s another big body we could’ve used.

    Bulldogs upper hand! (Hughes + Papi out)

    We need to stay focused because Melbourne will be a tough side regardless. It definitely does help though without Hughes and Paps. Win this one and the boys will get a prelim infront of 80,000 people.

    I just had a look and it looks like he was initially extended until the end of next season, and how has been given an additional two years.

    Opinion Are the’Bulldogs’ bad at playing in Wet Weather?

    Our whole style is built on being quick in defence. It’s quick first contact and then the second and third man come in to make the tackle. The wet weather slows that down and it’s hard for our players to adjust.

    Burton upstages $6m man after NSW snub; ‘ludicrous’ call sums up Bunnies’ woes — Crawls

    Burtons boot is the biggest weapon, or get out of jail card in the NRL. I’ve seen numerous opposition fans sit at games and feel disheartened when their team muscles up and keeps us pinned in our own 30m, and then Burtons boot just gets us out of trouble and we suddenly have the field advantage.

    Connor Tracey discussion

    Best case scenario is to secure top 4 and win the first week of the finals. Would give him about 7 weeks before a prelim. If we are already out by then, then someone must’ve gone really wrong.

    Connor Tracey discussion

    Kiraz will be okay at FB, but we really are going to miss him on the wing
  36. Bulldog_4_Life

    Connor Tracey discussion

    I think Kiraz is the least disruptive option, with Rinakama coming in to the side. But I also don’t have a lot of confidence in going into the finals with an inexperienced Jethro and Tuala on the wings.
