First the NRL doesn't promote the development of the game internationally and now they do but in the wrong parts of the world? Interested in hearing your qualifications to make such a remark.

Congrats Souths. The benchmark we should be aiming for.

Yes the game is ready for expansion. Definitely have enough talent to spread another two sides that pool is only going to get bigger with the games developments over the next few years (even more so if the competition expands to the correct places). What area? WA is a must and either...

Unfortunate for Birdy once you what happened. Should of thought more before acting but we are all guilty of that (& I'm sure the majority of people have urinated in public before as well). He's matured into a good guy as well. He'll bounce back.

Won't happen.

Didnt they do that this year when they allowed the players to pick their scoring play music. At the end of the day, I dont give a shit what plays after points are scored. As long as points are scored and the theme song plays at the end of the game.

All jerseys are crap apart from the great home jersey. Will be saving myself some money im the next few years. Very pissed off at the incorporation of black into our 9s jersey (with that ****ed dog head), let alone our AWAY jersey which we'll wear during NRL GAMES!!!

Only as often as they get injured during training.

Probably like the idea of Hokko being captain more than the sometimes hot tempered Graham.

All those who say $160 a jersey is too much can save themselves some money next year. The club has missed the mark on 3/4 of the jerseys. Terribly disappointing.

Dave Smith is doing a great job and has got the NRL organisation headed in the right direction for the first time I can remember ... perhaps ever. The recent reports coming out of the telecrap by the recently banned Phil Rothfield that Smith and Grant are on the nose seems nothing more than a...

A few calls to bring back to the Magpies in here. I'm interested to know what will be different if they did take over. There would still be a struggling club in control of that license. Oh and btw, a relocation to Perth won't work with the amount of work put into the game in that area and...

Some people need to grow up. The two products that were used were cleared by the NRL who were in tight communication with ASADA at the time. Whether or not they were complimentary is the only real story here, no question over South Sydney's brilliant performance. It's a extremely weak story...

Interesting

I wonder if this will have any effect over the proposed upgrades to ANZ Stadium. You would have to think it definitely would. Enough to make the redevelopment plans turn into a permanent rectangle? I doubt it, but how great would be it if they did.

G'day

An absolute disgrace to allow somebody on the sex offenders register to play in our great game and competition. Pathetic leadership by the NRL and outdoes all the great work the NRL, Women in League and many other various organisations have done to make our great game greater and boosting all...

On a Friday night, they show the games live and show short ad breaks during natural breaks in play, i.e. before or after an attempt at goal, if there is a serious injury, after a penalty kick at goal etc etc. What they lose by showing it live is blocks of 8-9 back to back ads, on delay they can...

Forever a reserve grader. .... really ....

Nope. I brought two 2014 jerseys this year. I wouldn't be buying outdated merchandise, even for less. Fair call. I think they are appropriately priced for quality and wear when they are in date. But that could just be me. What's this about?

Sharks aren't even a feeder to the Storm anymore.

So we'll limit our grand final to a crowd of 60,000? This is only one proposed idea for an upgrade of ANZ Stadium. There are other ideas as well which are being put forward and the logicitics being worked out.

What have the Sharks got to do with the East Tigers?

Great idea

Awww. We don't get cheap outdated merchandise.

This is a thread?

I think Hoffman to the GC is a really good fit.

Foran wont stay at Manly any longer than he has to.

G'day

Bahahaha. Thanks for the laugh. Really needed it. Good to see some on here have great humour.

Stupid stupid proposed structure there. Cap here to stay. Its in all sports now as well.

Interesting to see how this pans out. Not too happy Danny Wicks is allowed back.

Boyd isn't a Bulldogs player.

Hala to GCT.

We wore the black alternative jersey as our WIL jersey with pink numbers. The 2014 alternate jersey was the blue jersey with the black V.

To be honest, I never rated him.

I wouldn't be trusting that.

Commentators were asking if a sponsorship deal had been done when Sione amd Chanel swapped numbers all of a sudden after playing a few games together.

Josh McGuire shouldn't be allowed to change allegiance. Sick of this stupid rule that allows allegiance change at the drop of a hat.

Sorry I missed it guys.

Steve Folkes to coach Kangaroos next? I wish But then he would have to leave Jillaroos though

He played out of position though. Will be interesting to see if Samoa keep the same halves pairing for this week or if it'll change to be Maitua at 6 & Roberts at 7.

Gonna be an awesome weekend. Hopefully we pick a more competitive team this year around.

More people in here need to adopt the thoughts of the club and CEO regarding Barba. Hope he finds a home and gets back some form.

Haha at the possibility of Finucane playing Origin level.

We should sign Luke Kelly as a halves back up. The kids got talent and is underrated by most.

He'll be right. He'll come back from this and be continue in his pre-origin form.

I can guarantee you're all wrong. Because this is the NRL, we don't know what will happen.

It's not just to bring players back to the game. It's to bring players into the competition that will have an overall positive effect on the game in Australia. This can I clude players from the Super League, Bringing back marquee players who have left or bringing players in from other sports...

Good strong move by the GC. Had to be done and perhaps the first sign that the Titans management are getting serious.

What has that got to do anything to do with "Bulldogs Player Movements | Re-Signings | Rumour Mill | 2014 edition"?

Heard somewhere the NFL rules doesn't allow him to play this season.

A lot of people assume a lot on here.

People have the right to say to say they think players from other clubs are better than players at our club without being harassed over it. Jeez.

Tries tally dont tell the full story.

Spot on mate.

Good luck to Jarryd Hayne. Quality player and athlete. Everyone wins here. NRL & Rugby League getting great exposure in the USA due to this. Hopefully he does well. Parramatta are worse off but ah well.

Wow. A lot of huge accusations and assumptions based on snippets the media (of all things) are reporting from people who have no idea what's actually happening. A very dangerous mix.

Every premiership given since 1908 is credible. Cant label some premierships "not credible" purely because of the current set-up being different to previous set ups.

Cheers

What's the point of this? At the end of the day South Sydney have won 21 premierships. They are the most successful club in history* no matter how they won, when they won. Can only beat whats in front of you and can only play by the rules that are/were in place. * most successful when...

20 week ban.

When has the NRL used that punch as advertisement? Ive seen TV networks use it to promote the game without input from the NRL. The NRL has a strict no violence rule when the NRL themselves promote the game. Happy to proven wrong if shown when the NRL organisation has broken thier rule.

NRL should ban 'letters of intent' or our club should stop doing them. Stupidest thing in league at the moment in thus country.

Both had terrible seasons. Been keeping an eye on Brennan though. Some potential there.

3. NRL is much larger than the SL. That's the reason for this. 4. The NRL does not control the commentary. 5. Punches were a terrible look. The first was terrible and the second the worst scene of thuggery perhaps ever. Unacceptable for the code no matter where its played. 6. The NRL...

That was TV?

Was a really odd low quality grand final. Wigan looked the better of the two even with 12 players but was interesting watching what was basically a side with 12 players against a side without halves.

No. It was 1995-1996.

I don't remember St George winning one lately.

How quickly the opinion changes of many. And may again.

Being staying up for it. Can't wait. Not long now.

I wouldn't know.

All 23 games were at Centre.

Ah the NRL is an easy target isnt it?

Cant believe people are okay with Ferguson playing again.

Love how people just want to throw Loko into the side and on the wing!!! A position of which he is untested at NRL level as well as being average with his time at centre in the NRL.

People read Peter Fitzsimmons articles about League? Wow. That's really something.

Seconded

Its not a full series. Its 3 one-off matches over one weekend. Unless something has changed without me knowing.

How is it a gift? They won the premiership. They've earned the right to play the Super League champion. Just as previous premiers have.

Sorry if there's already a thread about this. But what the hell is rep points and what do they mean?

Nightingale is as much of a dick as Soward is for mine.

Slater - 178cm 89 kg Thompson - 179cm 92 kg.

I love how some posters position their post as to have this or this outcome without the possibility of anything else as if they're some authority on the issue lol.

Awesome!

I was referring to things alomg these lines

Quality post

The NRL hasn't stated they want to expand or not. There is a meeting coming up where they'll look at the possibility of expanding. The expansion bids are ramping up again though.

Question 1 - what world cup is everyone talking about? Thr next world cup is 2017. I hopr we dont announce any signing for next season that late. Are you talking about the Four Nations? Question 2 - Why is everyone so keen on Brett Stewart? He is past his best and has slowed down due to a...

The NRL have issued South Sydney a please explain over Sam Burgess head injury during the Grand Final.

What a legend in the making. He deserves to remain a bulldog for the length of his career.

I'd love to see the Bears back, I'm not sure the game needs a team on the Central Coast though. WA & another QLD team are needed next. Then we gotta look to NZ/Pacific I think.

Great to see some friendly people on here.

I'm an average guy. Been a supporter my entire life. The dogs are pretty much my life lol. Thanks for the post. Spot on

If its bringing a former player back, a majority of the time utll be the club he had played for before. This can happen with or without clubs being involved. Clubs can also go to the NRL with a target in mind from another sport to get this exception.

The NRL hasnt stated they want to expand. But the expansion bids are getting ready to push again. I think the NRL said it would look into the possibility of expansion at the end of this season though.

Oh I'm sorry, the correct answer is a person with severely limited vocabulary. Thanks for playing.

Re-read it. All ive asked is for referencable information. I know what happen, how and when. I dont need some d*ckhead with a godcomplex attitude on a supporters forum to tell me anything. All I was wondering is if there was an article on it somewhere online.
