If we sign him ill forget about football until he (Luai) is gone, i cant stand the grub.

Looking at the draw I think we have a chance of 7 wins so that’s roughly 14th?

Comparing players in the same number I don’t think from 1-17 we have a single better player. It will be a race to 80, either panther points or the clock who knows who wins.

Sivo is killing me

Well could trade off to Moses no loss in trade so meh.

He is listed as Captain……..

Anyone know if Cleary is playing, I’ve got Hynes (C) but so does other guy and I’m behind can swap them pre sharks game but running out of time.

3-Sexton 2-Burton 1-Avo

TBH I pinched it from Sexton thread but rather hijack that thread, I had to dig up this old thread.

This is what is means to have bulldogs DNA. Many haters on this site and I say go fuck yourself. If any of the current 17 had half the passion this guy has in his big toe than we don’t ever get beat by 66 points. If I ever run into Josh I’ll buy you a beer and toast to being one of the last true...

I honestly don’t see a downside, if he doesn’t work out it’s only a cheap (I assume) deal allowing the other young halves to learn their craft in Reggie’s. Or he takes it by the balls and becomes a really solid half and plays for years to come. At least he is a true half and hopefully he starts...

He said if he doesn’t perform Gus could sack him. Think it’s time for the door to be shown and sack him, not transfer and pay part salary a good old get out we ain’t paying you anymore princess.

What I would like is to see the C removed from next to Reeds name for the rest of the year. First graders not performing removed to reserve grade. One year contracts and earn to play every year. If we lose games with reserve graders playing and the 1st graders sitting down a grade it would do a...

Sorry but I watched the same game Rajab was singled out all first half because his inside man was a good 3m away and Alamonti was a good 4 away. Seriously I am pissed off too but there was no chance any half in the competition could have stopped those tries with the help he got. He needs like...

One year contracts for next 10 years and turn over duds including coaching staff, this is a joke pick 13 drunks from a bar would do better.

If he comes cheap he can be a decent 14. Max 300k on a year contract though until he proves himself.

Reed better be looking over his shoulder Flanagan is a good 9, should be no where near a 7 though

And Flanagan over Rajab for the start. When will we learn assistant coaches of a team that doesn’t need coaching is not going to work.

Sign him up for a snickers and a can of coke. Article said looking for a big pay day, we suck at paying overs for underperforming or injured players. I’ll put $10 on we sign him on 600k because we are shit at cap management

Herham

Same fucking line up as last week but let’s take out Wilson for poor performance. Heads need to roll, the definition of stupid is doing the same thing and expect a different solution.

The soft cocks needs to legs tackle we lost to much in post meter tackles. If they are worried about head knocks tough luck stop the other forwards no matter the cost.

My hopes would be Boyle or Bullemor

To be a player swap without loading surely it would be an out of contract player this year the same as Flanagan so my thoughts Boyle or Bullemor. I definitely would death ride Schuster if we signed him can’t stand him.

Swap for a forward that’s not too 17 I don’t see why we give him over we already paid him for the year use him as a tackle bag but don’t just give him over without something in return. FU Manly.

Ive seen Jelly harder than our forwards (Exception to Preston)

TPJ version 2 never missed a Panthers game

Don’t disagree he was woeful but for some reason he wasn’t mentioned and it was triple J btw. Since I know you aren’t him I feel no need to apologise. I truly do feel for the actual guy and I wonder if he didn’t have his father where he would of ended up because I doubt it would of been football.

I was listening to the weekend review this morning and they highlight Flanagan is a third rate half for any other team and needs to craft in England. I feel for the guy he is a turtle on a post.

Stop being these salary cap thieves friends and start kicking chairs and screaming at them fucking sooks. They need the worlds best rev up because they have no consequences. Boot them all to NSW cup apart from the few having a go and leave them there. The NSW cup team would have dominated our...

Mahoney Hooker 3 Mahoney HB 2 Mahoney 5/8 1

Reed Mahoney best buy in 10 years

Burton can fuck right off to Cup.

To Reynolds haters at least he can kick.

OMG this is not good, lucky quick play the ball opened up for the try. Looks like we lack the mongrel in any forward pack. Hope the boys get some ball.

Kayo is advertising NSW Cup - Begins Today 12:30, so im thinking should be on both Kayo and Fox.

You honestly think the guy that elbowed a player in the head whilst he was on the ground would play more than 5 games a year here, we don't have the luxury of the storm's don't get penalised for dirty play. He will see more time suspended than Hetherington did.

Fingers crossed Kiks stays on the field longer than 5 minutes and our left edge should be a problem for Manly. Need Burton to fire with Mahoney if and if they get Flanagan to work on the right it should be a good game to watch or its 2022 all over again :(

Sorry for him but you think he will be on a plane home soon and yes we should get compensation surely same as medically retired is he doesn’t play NRL again. or he will do a Foran and play for Manly next year uninjired.

TPJ grade three heart string injury. T-Rex 2.0

I don’t see a Crita being much better he sucked in the trial at full back for penny’s we are in trouble spine still needs a good adjustment. I’d say maybe 1 out of 4, 2 if Burton pulls his finger out. Mediocre and not having a go needs to be weeded out.

Thought Ciraldo was a great defensive coach. Perham is either having the worst day ever or is not a fullback. Avo I think has played well, no one has played well. Flano sorry but we need another option may aswell put another forward on the field.

Bulk up and ball playing lock, and for the people saying to small just say Rubin Cotter smashing front row with pure want.

Very sad if 3.5 over 4 years is correct, better off with Munster with that stupid money.

Still been the best coach in nearly 5 years, warriors also had best game in 6 years.

3. Jac 2. Burton and JMK 1. Shared Second

1. Watching the ball does not rule out obstruction. Placing yourself in the road and that player runs an arc to interfere. 2. Anytime the play is dead eg Tigers knock on you can challenge last play eg from last play the ball or kick off.

I must not know the rules properly but I think they got it 100% right he runs in an arc to keep the Cowboys off the ball constantly changing his line to keep in the road. Deadset escort every day of the week. I actually think for once they did make the right call. If he was running for the ball...

Stopped watching at half time in the Canberra Raiders match refuse to watch until something at club changes. Sucks to watch nearly every other game minus my own club because I would throw my shoe through the TV.

Baa Baa for me was the ultimate bulldog.

Averillo needs to be dropped into reserves for a bit for confidence, Schoup is a liability long term. Good defender if not giving away penalties. Has really shown little with the ball.

Schoup out penalty magnetic with little positives, Allen in.

No just no he is a fucking cheat. I’d rather be cellar dwellers than drug cheats. Can’t stand the thought of him anywhere near the team. I like what Potter has done week one give him a trial and don’t sign anyone until he has a crack Potter assistant Jimmy

No way he is over priced for what he can deliver. Upgrade Kiraz a bit keep some for half back recruit. Bye bye under performing players don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out.

I like the look of Ryles but we should only be signing for duration of the year. Would be stupid to make another Barrett call of no head coach numbers.

If Bourton wants to test the waters go for it I doubt he will increase his money off to play centre. Though taking a pay cut to be back in a winning culture is a real possibility. Hope the interim coach gets a few wins by years end.

I’d love to see what Burton can do with a superstar half. He is complete mediocre 5/8 now. Kinda looks like Cody Walker minus Adam Reynolds.

Sack anyone getting paid at the bulldogs, staff and players clean slate and give reserve grade first grade spots for the rest of the year. This is a joke these useless over paid pieces of crap don’t deserve a job.

Lol thinking the same thing. For the record I’m a huge Josh fan and what he has done for the club is in the legend category for being a one team player and taking pay cuts over the years to keep better players. Unfortunately King played a way better role and has better hands, moving forward a...

The open market might not reward him. A lot of work needs to be done for him to rate as a starting 5/8. Swap him out for nearly any other 5/8 in the comp and I don’t think we would be worse off or much.

He will be there new hooker next year. Need a half back and full back more with Reed coming.

I know this can’t happen but if the reffing is as bad as normal. Than come out at half time line up to the ref and have every player shake his hand saying congratulations on man of the match than run back off and hit the showers.

I know this won’t be popular but here it is; Not all doom and gloom currently we have played the top 8 teams 5 times with 1 win and bottom 8 once with a lose to bronco’s. I don’t care for last year we got new contenders this year. Hopefully some wins coming up. Dogs run Bronco’s 14th Roosters...

Next minute Barret puts a 7 on the back of Burton and Kyle is our 6

Exactly why I never rated him and was annoyed we signed him. Stop gap measure at the best hopefully a real fullback lined up in reserves somewhere. Vaughan was cheap before we signed a decent forward pack, milk this year out of him and bye bye.

I did try and warn you lot in the Tamworth thread before getting trolled. Barrett was no where to be seen in training, sat in the VIP box the whole time. Last time I checked most coaches were on the ground showing players how to execute the plan.

Bye bye Barrett, you have the cattle, assistant coach is all you should ever be.

To late

Everything we have sucked at to be up to standard. Eg. Defence dogs of war Some sort of attack At least 3 repeat sets from attacking kicks And a win. Might be too much to ask?

Yeah they had drones up and in use, well looked like the operator was being trained. TBaz was no where to be seen coaching from the executive boxes is not good.

I wasnt expecting them to go all out either i was expecting them to dominate the reserve grade side and maybe just maybe some attacking kicks. The lack of Fox involvement is certainly something i hope they address, he looks fit and quick so does Naden.

Hi Everyone, Firstly i want to thank the club for bringing the boys up here for the week or however long it will be, it was great to actually have time off, but damn you Covid for no signatures. The boys look fit and did the drills well, Thomo was present i was not sure if i saw Flanagan but...

I have to agree but he makes a great 14, put him anywhere. I’d like him to be given two or three games as starting hooker or half and see if he can make a stand.

As much as I don’t like him 2 year deal worth 500k a season I’d like just for the experience for Burton

Could very well be a stall tactic to gain an upgrade offer. Personally I think 700k a season for him is slightly over. He isn’t an origin forward and defensively can be very suspect. With Gus on board I think we will start to attract some decent players that can be similar to him on an average...

I have always said he has a go can be up and down. I think he will be picked up by another team might not be for halves but could be a centre unfortunately we can’t fit him in but if he goes flank and wakeham will have to follow. If they stay ima gunna be confused.

Welcome to the biggest dog act in the world. Just knocked the under arm bowl on last ball so opposition couldn’t hit a 6 to number 2 position

Yeah I’ve mentioned Connor Watson before I’d take him as an utility/2nd row.

I thought there was a Starling thread, from memory yet to be resigned played ok to good last night and when he scored did a call me gesture. Maybe not wanting to stay at raiders and can’t talk yet? Haven’t watched much of him looks a little grantish the way he moves could be an option for hooker.

I feel a little left out being a dogs supporter from the North Coast and now the New England area. I don’t get to go to live games so technically me being there is watching the game live. For me round 20 2002 when El Magic kicked from the sideline. 19 nil down at half time the goose bumps as you...

Pretty much looks like no Smith than, I like this for depth regardless.

Could be 1% of after tax would make more sense

It’s pretty simple they left the bubble knowing they shouldn’t have. Contracts terminated and players suspended indefinitely. This action could of easily stuffed the game for the rest of the year I personally think this is worse than chasing some school girls on an away trip.

Maybe not such a shit coach but just needed to retrain guys to what they should be doing. All I want is competitive and build second half of this competition I might get what I want.

To me I’d keep JMK Meaney Ava Okunbor If they haven’t played first grade I don’t know on the lesser guys but minimum wage for depth I assume they are now can’t really hurt.

As I said Ive watched him closely over the last 3 games and compared to JMK last game he isn’t a better option and would command more dollar so I see him as a backwards step. If JMK can keep that tempo up it’s a waste of cap for no increase. Would like to see him in a pack dominating and see...

Big pass, he is a pussy for a winger he would have no hope in forward pack worse than T-Rex on aggression.

To be honest I’ve watched Blake Brailey last three weekends and I’d put JMK ahead of him yet people on here are calling him an upgrade? Expectation versus reality hooker can only play off a forward pack ours has been rubbish for a while I’m happy to watch JMK over the next 5 games if he can show...

I have never seen why people hate him so much, if he can play like the dragons game over 90% of the time he ticks enough boxes for a contract. He is not a natural hooker and at this time I would have him too 20 atm so very handy as back up and a problem solver in halves if injuries pop up. I...

He might not ever be origin standard but bit of eyes up football today which is where he has been lacking. Everywhere else he is pretty strong so if he can keep eyes up going I like his development.

I really loved how he played today, let’s see if he can back that up three weeks straight before we get lock him in happy

Rebuild not suicide from here nearly the most overrated player to ever Grace the game.

+1 Except thought wakeham first half was ordinary

JMK is ridden into the ground here and I’ve always said I like him maybe a good 14, but he made Dufty his bitch with a dummy and walk over the line. This is why I have been anti Dufty one good game than 5 or 6 below our standard.

1.6kk for 2 years, tell him he’s dreaming 50% off minimum mate or hang those boots up for good.

I am grateful I watched both games, last one I was underwhelmed with his performance but team was shit too so was not a great indication. I was underwhelmed with his first half but out of the sheds he took the game on. He looked really good will be good to see him after a full preseason at...

I personally like JMK, don’t see why all the hate he isn’t the worst dummy half (Kenny). Diets and Topine should be bench players ffs. Maybe the coach should have his hands tied like previous coaches and told who to play as I’m lost as to why Topine especially is left out again.

If the wanker (Cleary) isn’t smoke and mirrors we get to see Burton in halves again this week with a decent hooker let’s hope better service gets him going. Also May should actually try this week or move over.

Nope Trent as coach, something went missing from our defence from last year as bad as we performed at least teams knew they were in for a fight. Might want to read my post again thought it was pretty clear.

Quite frankly bring back Dean Pay half a week and get him to work on our defence, give the other half of the week for Trent Barret to work out how to get our guys scoring points. I mean it’s not that stupid an idea NFL has been doing this since it started, yes I know they have two different...
