Been a fan since the late 1980's, never seen the club like this, it started to unravel mid 2016 IMO and we have never recovered. Playing horrible football most games, at times scoreless in halfs like never before, when we can play ok and score points, we can not defend. I used to see players...

You just get that Belmore feeling of nower days don't ya... :frowning:

I know our forward pack is not great but with the amount of guys Brisbane has out and Reynolds in ordinary form, I think we are still in with a decent chance... even if the game is at Belmore lol

The whole culture at the club is soft we are a shadow of what we used to be and stood up for... feels like it will never change atm, dunno how we have gone to such a poor club, good players come and become duds, we hear the same shit every pre season about everything and get pumped. We used to...

How much more can we regress and yet all we hear from the club is about the friken effort and how training is so good... when will these delusional bastards wake up and just say it how it is. Our training standards are probably ridicoulosly low given what we dish out every week and for the last...

Nope, other way around

Officiating has been the codes biggest problem each year of late, one focus point after another and over zelous referees looking to sin bin anything, super harsh penalties against teams like ours are a norm too, head of referees should really be looked at, at how the referess of today is been...

Edwards

Worst referee out there, very by the book to the point he sees things that never happened, all his games are penealtithons, very hard to watch

As long as Dimitriou keeps playing Koloamatangi in the middle & not second row we have a chance, Souths have been so poor since this move

Must win game given Cowboys players out & our next few weeks of games. Burton needs to show up and Pele needs more game time. As for Flano, even Reynolds at 34 is an improvement so I want him on sooner rather than later

Sadly, very true

Good player but wana see him be quicker in line breaks - early days

I think its been 9 years since we won in Auckland, we used to go there and look ok until the recent ugly years were we just haven't shown up. As you said @Alan79 since Potter we have looked different, so given we beat our terrible runs at Belmore & Melbourne maybe we can do it in Auckland too...

Kind of ironic the club talks about our culture so much but we have not had a dominant forward pack for how many years now? Out muscled nearly every game, something aint right at our club

After all the recruitment and talk about our pre-season and Ciraldo we deliver the worst Round 1 performance ever? 8th season of utter crap? Are we really a club to be appointing unproven first grade coaches? That was abismal yesterday! Put Potter on stand by cause we can't see more of that...

This!!!! We compete for 30-50 mins that’s it, after that we are rubbish and gassed, this has gotten worse this year incredibly… Hoping Gus can sort this crap out, this is torture every week

Wow - sign him up

This is not happening, this is not happening, this is not happening... Good god it is :weary:

Ohhh a BBQ during lockdown! With people he was with all day :sob: Send him to the lions! Get a grip people.

Let's see what he does next week and week after etc... needs to perform like that every week does JMK

I hope you're right Malla

The most annoying commentator by far, always something to complain about

46-6 Panthers

I don’t think there has been any real leadership at this club since Ennis left, don’t get me started on the board

A whole off season to produce this... I want to give him the benefit of the doubt as it’s so early on BUT I just can’t see this mess fixed, give it a few more games of misery, can’t play the worst football in the competition in the last 21 years for too long before a change is needed

I guess in 3 weeks time we can dig further into it but after two games of no points and showing nothing in attack and defence we are in bigger trouble than last year... didn’t think that was possible...

A new low yesterday... first time our club has gone 2 games without 1 single point :coldsweat:

If he is not dropped next week, front office needs to show some passion and ask why when this just adds to our shit attack and defence

He simply has to, as a club today surley needs to mean something, we can not accept this anymore

You would have thought so but yet we continue to get worse..

Start him there vs Tigers, he will do better than JMK who gets ragged dolled around by the opposition. Holland would also score tries plus you have a great kicker

We have been totally noncompetitive for 4-5 years now... we are now getting smashed rather easily by the better teams and our roster is crap. On top of that almost every player we have let go of, or brought in, have gotten better under better management and coaching, whilst those that come to...

Pay is not a coach to take us forward, simple as that, the amount of mistakes made is ridiculous, he must go ASAP, as well as our conditioning team

Just another indication of how we have fallen as a club... the amount of talent that have gone onto look like studs since leaving us... we are rubbish in almost every department, players come to us and become powder puffs, players leave us and how incredible form... we are the modern day Western...

Curious to see if our attack, which improved very much so towards the end of last season can start this way, a lot of work to do but for the most part when we spread we made good meters

I bloody hope you are right! Bring on next week

Add the Okumbor factor and I am very worried

Nothing wrong with that

What on earth does Pay see in Chris Smith?? How does one put Meany on the wing... How many missed tackles and knock on’s does Montoya need to make? Hard ask to see our best 13 out there...

Qld win game 1 but NSW win series 2-1

Yep

Elliot at lock :coldsweat::mask:

I used to go to all Dogs games but haven’t been to one this season. Going to a game is about supporting your team and expecting a good performance that can lead to a win. It’s pretty hard to go there and watch the worst Bulldogs team ever get beaten once again by a rival like the Dragons

This is beyond a joke... week in week out we wait for Pays ridiculous selections... our best players not in the 13 and mediocrity continuously getting rewarded... what’s it gona take for this once great club to wake up?? Massive protest outside the Leagues club perhaps?? We can’t continue like...

Hmmm so where is our creativity coming from tonight.... Foran?

So we get to see Cogger put up one useless bomb after another on the 5th, and Jacko have a shocker out wide again + witness the worst lock at lock in the NRL for yet another week!

Just hard to watch... opposition scores tries on us so so easy

Ogden! A Bulldog that runs hard!! Good to see for a change

Game over... this is just horrible

Needs to work on defence but golly, he looked good in attack vs Melbourne, was very impressed

I take him onboard without doubt. Many people give it to Gus but truth be told, he’s one of the best rugby league brains out there. He’s also proven it first hand as a coach.

Thank you for posting this

Veolia Australia lol

Gotta be kidding me... we just can't win!

Guys got great talent and we saw a display for the ages yesterday. Like others have said though, I feel it’s a matter of time before he gets injured and out for a few weeks and that will hurt us big time right now so really hope he can stay healthy

I was outraged when I saw this but I guess a decent performance clause in there and it’s not such a bad play

And offloading... god we suck

That's also true... we find out soon enough lads!

Good points, I hope you're right

Really? As in you're surprised? For Dogs to win tonight it would be our biggest win in some time

So it goes from bad to worse... what a complete mess our club is right now... It won't be long before Canterbury is connected with re-location and merging over time I thinks, we will be the worst Sydney team, and NRL team, let's face it for the next 2-3 seasons at least - thanks Des and Dib

Mate, surely there is someone in the club can play lock with some form of effective offload? A lock needs to be dominate and off load well, we have not had that for how long now? Just an example of the frustration I and many feel. Montoya and Hoppa side to be dominated again... How much worse...

Tell me about it... most they guys have been crap last season too... so much for the bulldogs culture, the only culture I see now is a 30% winning rate and being soft as... it's just do depleting knowing we're in for another crap game and have our asses handed to us again :persevere::rage:

Exactly, they can come good or get a few wins, we look very very bleak

:tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

If Hoppa and Montoya are still a pair in 2019 we ain't going far people, these two will be monstered by every team every game, not for NRL level

100% worst squad, besides Mbye no X factor and very little speed, in fact, the Montoya-Hopoate side has to be the smallest, slowest and nonthreatening side in the NRL... To top it off we have no real 6 and our forwards are powder puffs for yet another season... We got nothing but a wooden...

Absolutely, we need to shake it up and big time. I see many have Fualalo in their squads... I don't think he offers anything to what a poor Klemmer and Woods already do, not needed. We need a serious shake up, now and not in 10 rounds time or towards the end

We don't currently have the troops

Klemmer’s same runs game after game and not 1 offload. Many prob disagree but his runs are super predictable now, he makes 5 meter runs and gets monstered, the Woods does the same with less heart... then our bench does the same 5 meter runs of slowest play the balls in NRL... Don’t think...

I am not confident, Dogs have shown about 10 different faces in just 3 rounds! lol Souths looked good last week... Come on you Dogs!

Good, the amount of money needed on this was ridiculous, ANZ is not an old stadium, build in 1998/99 it's still a great stadium today, the money that was going to be wasted on this can be spend on our crap roads, infrastructure and hospitals

What horrible news :cry: RIP Folkes

Add to the large list of Des fails, never seen a coach killer like Des before... Even Hayne as a coach killer is not as bad lol

It's the Cinderella story, week from hell, new coach, media bashing the club all week - they come out and win the game to end the week on a high. Hopefully this does not happen but seen it happen all the time

GOLD!!!!!!! :tearsofjoy:

I actually feel sorry for Lichaa and I never thought I would but it's pretty clear, he is another amongst so many now that been left so much worse off under Des. Lichaa's last few games have been good and he is not playing his usual game, like everyone else they are held back by useless Des's...

They are a great combo, much more dangerous than Morris twins. Need to work on their defense, especially Lee's he seems very hesitant in 50-50's too, surely a a defensive coach can help with this?

I'm not used to this feeling...

Enough with the powder puffs, Graham going is not bad at all, he has clearly got very little engagement in winning IMO, he is shadow of the first season with us and it has been a steady decline since, I am happy we are letting him go, he's got no to very little mongrel left in him, besides we...

Our club has become a club whose word means nothing, from the Board, to coach to captain to players, they are all talk no action. I don't take anything they say seriously anymore and the last 12 months has vindicated this. From our ridiculous 5 year plan which I couldn't believe they made...

Should be an automatic reason why this useless board is overturned in Feb. The fact that this dud squad is over the cap vs what the Storm, Roosters, Sharks, Broncos etc... have is just murder

93-98?

It's all making sense now... fuck we need the current idiots running our club out big time!! Loved the Tolman part!! :joycat: So true!! Des has no idea what he's doing... it's evident enough each week

Yes!! This team is just pathetic like the coach who is trying to get sacked and get his payout. We're not the worst NRL team since 1998 for no reason, we're fucken pathetic!!!

Exactly!!

Yep, we have to be bit patient, the current set up has killed the club, all we can hope for, for now is that Des is gone ASAP and a new board voted in, in Feb, Dib has to go just as much as Des does

Agreed... he has fucked us off the field and his buddy Des has turned us into the worst NRL side since at least 1998... it does not get worse than this... oh wait, we will have to go through a few painful seasons just to recover from the mess these schmucks have put us in :confounded::astonished:

Was a member and season pass holder from 2001-2016, like many me and my mates saw what was coming this year and did not get season pass's and rightly so. We are so disappointed, going to the game was so much fun, going for dinner and drinks before hand and having a laugh, now it's just a couple...

Did this really happen?? Wholly shit, the amount of signs that our players are just not there anymore is mind blowing, this is a clear indication that the guys are just not engaged with their duties. Just another example of how our cluture is diminishing with so many incompetent people on...

My sentiments exactly, I can't stand looking at these duds. I feel it means nothing to them and we are idiots been put through this comedy show of a team every week only for dumb ass Des to take the piss through the week

He was dropped for his poor defense right... Did they even work with the kid to improve his defensive read?

Both are at fault. This is Des's squad, he let go of good players with speed and ability and has left us with all the powder puffs (but for a few), players don't know how to off load but for RFM and we are prob the slowest team in the comp. We got no halves, a snail for a fullback, no kicking...

What else are they gona do?

Deadset no point going to a game to be insulted by this team, coach & board. This is not NRL standard, what Des & this board have done to our club is a complete farce & disgrace. On top of that the fact that 95% of the supporter base is completely fed up with this bullshit , clearly means...

Just pathetic on and off the field... how this group of duds are over the cap is incredible Same 17 next week by mastercoach :mask::rage:

I seconds that's, Kirt had more creativity on one hand than half our squad combined

I agree mate, a couple of games back my mate & I were keeping tabs on them and 1 easy run without pressure inflated Grahams stats considerably after struggling to make more than 6 meters a run

It's one wonderful thing after another this season... worst first half performance in the NRL era brings on another new low but we will go with the same 17 this weekend... Des wants the sack and payout!!! Wake up you failed board!!!
