Ciraldo has no idea . I get we have some inexperience but working with what we have got he has made some poor positional choices. Drop Perhem move averillo back Slot kiraz back to Centre and bring up Declan Casey. Move Burton back to six and bring Kyle back in to half with Reynolds at 14...

I think we need to change our motto. Proud To Be A Bulldog is too hard to live up to

We were a much better team last year when Potter took over and he wasn’t working with the “talent” we signed since then . #bringbackpotter

Why the hell do we play the souffs song after every try they score when it’s our home game. Wtf

Don’t understand why Okunbor is picked on the bench. Last week at Belmore he wasn’t used. Week prior he got five minutes when the game was over. He can really only cover wing or Centre. If we had Topine on the bench instead maybe we could have done a better job rotating our middles at Belmore...

[emoji817] agree. One of the toughest and emotional games I’ve ever been to. I wish fox would replay this game.

There are so many things the dogs need to improve but even Barrett should be able to make these three simple things happen and maybe we could jag a few extra wins here and there. 1. Flanagan should take all shots at goal. Pretty much anyone else in the side could kick goals better than Burton...

100% shocking

100% I see it every week I’ve he comes on and play dummy half. He’s good at running through the markers but 95% of your game in that position is passing the ball.

Can’t tackle. Too many infringements every week Passes to the wrong person on the last week in week out. Passes rarely hit the mark. Either hit the ground or are behind the runner . How is this guy a first grader.

Agree with on Waddel.. terrible too many six agains against him. So glad we didn’t offer Hoppa and Napa new contracts. We keep hearing about how he’s an attacking coach but I haven’t seen a single set play all season. I get the game has changed but at the very least a scrum based play that...

It’s not just Okunnor. Our edges on both sides have been terrible. On the other side it’s hoppa making bad reads and forcing Allen In off his wing. I’m pretty certain it’s a coaching thing. He was never a bad defender ( hoppa).

Your profile pic is sensational. One of my favorite moments in the GF.

This would be great but unfortunately I think he’s just using us to squeeze more out of other deals. I hope I’m wrong

Agree [emoji817] Basically catches the ball and falls over the line

Matty Johns likes to promote other people’s ideas as if they were his own. As soon as Gus said this about us he was suddenly pushing the same story . I would say Mary is somewhat right... I would also say that it recent weeks Georgalis has shown that the team also need a different game plan (...

It seems everyone can see it except the coaches we’ve had this year. Hopefully there is no new contract for him at the dogs.

[emoji23] fml every week this guy. The selections this guy makes? And poor Ogden can’t crack the team this week . He’s been outstanding in the 8. Been showing Tollman how it’s done: footwork, speed, fast play the balls and most importantly not killing our momentum when there’s an attacking...

100% every game he’s played.

[emoji23]

3 restarts , a sin bin , we get tackled on the 3rd . Canberra injury . 2 plays left. .........play resumes We pass to Tollman for a hit up and slow play the ball them JMK passes to RFM instead of Foran on the last. Say no more

Not sure why everyone in the media rate Tollman. Big minutes yeah and plenty of tackles. Literally passed the ball about 12 times in last three seasons and 9 of those didn’t hit the mark. Always gets dominated leading to slow ruck speed for the rest of the set. Absolute momentum killer.

Agree , Some of the selection changes each week are are beyond crazy . Doorey at 19? This kid is doing well for his first few games and going to be solid Averello? No where to be seen ? Give him some game time . Montoya over Laffai ???? Ogden starting is actually a good move.

That was My thoughts too

Pretty sure we have 10 players off contract and need to fill at least 8 positions to make up the minimum squad numbers. So I would think u sign 6-7 players on $1.3m (average about 200 each)and Cotric on 600k leaves $1.1m for two others . Off contract Jack Cogger, Adam Elliott, Raymond...

Ponga going to tear him apart

Agree [emoji817]. Definitely played better than both of them . Didn’t drop a pass either!

Someone tell me why Lafai has been left out of the side for this week??? Finally got some experience but we select holland the flop. Pearce and Ponga are going to tear him apart

I bet if we were carving it up this year he wouldn’t be wanting to leave. What bullshit CHN Got your feelings hurt. Suck it up you little bitch

Remember when they told us they weren’t going to let klemmer go unless they could replace him with another enforcer? [emoji23]

Your right on Tollman . Throw Nappa in their too. I’ve been jumping up and down about these two for a long time. Even the fox commentators commented on our lack of post contact meters. Both of them are slow to play the ball too. Tollmans drop ball early was a disaster for any momentum we were...

Absolutely cannot resign Tollman.

All the talk is about our halves. Give them a pack they can play behind and sign a bloody hooker ffs . 5 years now without a decent hooker. . .

Yuck

Think we are just a pawn so his manager can squeeze more out of raiders.

[emoji23]

I like Cotric and Johnson. Both their clubs can’t afford to pay them under the cap what we could pay them too. And you’re right don’t want to go over value on them .

Either , I guess when you’re going after contracted players you need to give them some incentive to push for release in terms of dollars unless it’s someone who is pissed they can’t get a start behind someone .

So we have all heard we have $3m to spend on players for next year right? Sounds like a lot, but when u consider we have 11 players off contract and so need to sign 9-11 players to make up the minimum squad numbers there’s not a lot of money really. Would you spend 600k on three name players...

How many times I’m the opposition 20 do these muppets get in the way and do a hit up?

[emoji23]

[emoji817]

Agree Napa And Tollman both. Before anyone jumps up and down- yes Tollman has been great for us in the past . But just like Napa. - Too slow , - zero post contact meters - no footwork - gets in the way for a hit up on tackle 3,4,5 when we are in an attacking position. - not willing to...

Good call. I had forgotten about Katoa. Was just thinking Lewis can defend in the forwards and might steer the attack around. It’s been so long since we played an actual 9.

I would hope this is a joke. Do we really think a Ruby coach is the answer

My heart tells me “be patient , we will rebuild , the squad we had can’t be helped, good things to come” . Then I see a lack of game plan , players playing all over the place, cogger as utility ? Zero attack with the exception of the Foran show and slow - which some defense still fall for...

Spot on. Not to mention we are broke and can’t afford to pay for a new coach and pay out Dean!

Let’s be honest here- no coach is going to have a great winning percentage with the group Pay has to work with . What’s the point of bringing in another coach that won’t succeed??? On top of that we can’t afford to sack a coach and pay [emoji383] him out. We are broke. No leagues club no...

The ridiculous thing is Foran refuses to retire but will have no choice- NO ONE WILL SIGN HIM beyond his current contract to so effectively it will be a forced retirement. Very delusional and selfish on Foran’s part.

We should not get involved with anyone allowing involved with MUNDINE. He’s trouble all over.

I’m glad we haven’t signed any of these “big names” and the huge salaries they are expecting. We don’t want to slip back into the days where Des Hasler messes our salary cap to the point where it has taken several seasons to get over and still a few to come. I know someone reading will straight...

Love it

Would be a nice change- other clubs paying us to play their players .

Overall he had a great debut game.. little concerned though. Saw Harper pass three times to the right and each time the pass was too high or behind the player and impacted the timing on the play. Needs to work on it over the off season.

We are the desperate club now. Going to pay more than that for Radradra. What a joke. Save our money Lynne!

Adam Elliot is all heart.

I know the club wrote off Reynolds returning but that was in the halves . Put him at hooker for two seasons , pay him peanuts and let the tigers pay the bulk of his contract! We would still have enough to snag a good young hooker next year if something pops up.

100% agree. His post contact meters are terrible and his play the balls kill any chance of momentum. Add to it all the praise he gets from commentators about how tough he is to play 80 up front- u know what if you are too rooted to tackle in the last twenty you shouldn’t be out there. Don’t...

2001.

Yep . Should’ve been one of our greatest victories. From memory that result robbed us of the minor premiership that year . Would’ve been the first team in history to finish with it after getting the spoon the previous year!

Derrick Zoolander can’t turn left. Micheal Lichaa can’t pass to the right.

Yeah he did play with the sharks after the dogs did everything they could to push him out. He wanted to stay at the club and finish his career as a dog he was willing to take a pay cut to stay.

Yeah not wrong. A lot of emotion in that game. Ur right too. That tackle was unbelievable

The game u are thinking of is the final game of the 2002 season at the show ground at Home bush. We defended our lead for the entire second half on our line.. We were under enormous pressure and had a number of calls go against us. It was one of the greatest matches I’ve ever seen When the...

You would think Cronulla wouldn’t take woods for over 500 which means we pay the balance of 500 for the next few years, Mbye was on 800 and I couldn’t imagine the tigers paying more than 500 so we are forking our 300 there for the next few years . Graham was on about 850 and I bet we are...

Agree he had three good games for us last season and unfortunately we offered him s new contract based on that. Been rubbish since. Only looks to run when he can get his own numbers up. Never looks around to create an opportunity for someone else to slice through

It really not that hard. It’s a very basic equation. Unfortunately Manly is still suffering from The Des days and he left them 2011. Once our cap is cleared it will only be the beginning, we will then struggle to attract quality/star players as we will be viewed as a club where careers go to die.

The whole off season I’ve heard this bullshit about bulldogs DNA... from dib and dean to Anderson. Haven’t seen any aggressive defense in two rounds of footy.

Bring back Des. At least we were known for our defense

Agree with a lot of what you are saying. And I’m not saying I’m a fan of Ray. I think it’s important to question who will represent our club- and that it is easy to write-off the current board. My comments were based around the alternate and that when given their chance to put forward their...

I think you are right some young blood with a lot of potential but probably still 12 months off being the type off forwards that give you real impact off the bench. For me a big concern is how slow some of our guys are at getting up to play the ball. In the last few seasons we have been...

I agree, I think Steve is just the pin up boy for their campaign and they should’ve given him a bit more support but when im voting for a board I want to hear specific actions and policy. Not simply the feel good stuff. It’s easy to say you would make things better... great ... how??? What’s...

Love it bob barker.

Good point.

Like most I was pretty disappointed with our performance this year. And I have to say some of the changes to our roster would not have been choices I would have made. But with the coach gone along with his entourage, captain gone too. Raylene resigned/sacked. Is this the time to change the board...
