    Opinion Reed Mahoney

    Outstanding today and has been brilliant all season, always leads from the front regardless of how big he is. He epitomises what a bulldog is, attitude and effort spot on, absolutely love him.

    Opinion Patolo

    I seen Willie Mason say this guys a future of our forwards, is it just me not seeing it? Had 3 runs last week and came off injured, 2 runs tonight, injured again possibly? Never been overly impressed by him, hes never fit and hasnt been from day 1.

    Opinion Skelton

    I just seen this bloke ran 300 metres in NSW cup, every time i see the cup, hes huge for us on a wing, is his defence that bad he doesnt deserve a shot? I know we are stacked currently for wingers but this guy is damaging, feels wrong him still being in cup

    Opinion Referees

    We are 4 weeks in and im losing my patience with the refs, we havent had a 50/50 call go our way for years, some of these calls we arent getting arent even that, more 80/20 or 90/10. Now im not blaming everything on these decisions, we have so much to work on, I can completely see that but if...

    Opinion Blake Taffee

    I think he played well today but i still have huge concerns of him under the high ball, hes managed to drop one every week so far, thinking of him competing vs Mitchell for a high one next week makes me feel nervous. For me, id be bringing Fox in, Tracey to fullback, he on the other hand looked...

    Opinion Sam Hughes

    Ive watched all the podcasts in the off season, ones with curran, burto, kiraz, preston and Edwards, all raving about Sam Hughes, is this guy gonna be our next big thing? Didnt impress me that much last year, but apparently had an injury.

    Opinion Kiraz not a centre

    I love Kiraz but lets be honest , hes a winger, doesnt look anywhere near as effective at centre. Whats concerning is his defence, that croker try today, he didnt even jump. When he was on a wing, he was so safe under a high ball

    Opinion Crichton and Xerri not enough

    If we dont manage to bring some forwards in for next season, dont expect too dissimilar to this one, yes there may be some odd games we get up for it and our backs win us some games vs teams like tigers, dragons, titans etc but realistically our forwards will get battered vs better teams and...

    Opinion Back 5 for next year

    1. Taafe 2. Kiraz 3. Critta 4. Xerri 5. Fox This must rank among one of the best back 5s in the comp? Obviously forwards are a must also!

    Lets not put it all on the coach…

    I cant defend CC at all today but im sick of people just blaming him, how about them absolute losers on the pitch take some blame. Okunbor, Perham, TPJ, RFM, Rajab, not good enough, King, really in terrible form. Kiraz, burto, mahoney, fox, literally every single one of them. The first few ive...

    That Nelson call

    Storm always get every decision, thats one of the worst ive seen, clear knock on and double movement, refs have their favourites, we d never get that call

    Opinion Chris Patolo

    Does anyone rate this guy, been around for a few years now and all I can recall of him is HIAs, hes never had a stand out performance to my memory but now hes starting for us. Hope im wrong and he kicks on but cant say im too made up with him starting.

    Opinion Shambles

    A home game versus rivals in front of 40,000 supporters and we put that performance up? Some absolutely disgraceful efforts in defence, should have known after last week when we managed to lose an unloseable game vs the roosters who are currently at rock bottom. Its simple defenzive individual...

    Hard to lose

    Never behind that game til the end, we start 12-0 up, then some extremely average defence especially the first try which was just a simple dummy and we let them back in it. We go ahead again, then waddell in particular completely switches off, unforgivable and honestly not a standard of an nrl...

    Opinion Morrin

    Didnt the game change today when this guy came on. With the speed he runs for his size hes bound to get smashed a few times but hes fast and has good footwork at the line. Felt like when he came on today the momentum in the forwards swung in our favour, real good sub on by Ciro.

    Opinion Fraud watch- RFM

    Not been too impressed by him this year but yesterday I thought he was really average. At 6-6, we got a penalty, went upfield and first tackle he has the ball stolen from him and they then go and score up our end of the field. Real momentum changer in the game, we didnt have the ball after that...

    Oloapu, is he ready?

    Obviously this is the name everyones talking about at the minute, ive seen people say hes ready and people say hes not. The media all say hes a star and is ready and its a matter of time, if CC believes he is ready, I trust him. I havent watched toms of him in our NSW cup but the stats seem to...

    Opinion James Graham

    Just seen this old video on youtube of James Graham in his days at the dogs, brings back such good memories, what a player he was, epitomised what it means to be a Bulldog. Best prop in the world at one point in my opinion, one of the best english imports ever. Love him, what a freak, would love...

    Opinion Just a joke isnt it

    https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMNqvp5Yu/ Watching that, its actually crazy the bias towards the Storm, sad that refs and the Nrl are mad scared of the Storm and Bellamy, NAS charge list without a ban is insane, same with the King gouge, I dont think it was worse than Waddells but theres certainly not 5...

    Loving this guy more and more every single week, he has (touch wood) reigned in his discipline and when hes on, genuinely one of the most damaging forwards in the comp, him saying he believes we ll be a powerhouse club again in 3 seasons and hes gonna be a big part of that. Isnt it nice aswell...

    Listen , Im certainly not getting ahead of myself but how nice is it to feel excited watching us again, to have hope going into next season.

    Opinion It hurts now but

    That one really stings but isnt it nice to see us giving it to the good sides instead of getting battered. Our form has been good generally of late, we are heading in the right direction for sure, just havent learned how to play in situations like that, we should have won, had the lead twice and...

    Opinion How bad a coach is fitler

    This bloke may be worse than Baz, had a much better side on paper vs QLD and managed to get smoked. Dropped the best winger in the game, didnt even tell his side good morals in sticking up for your mate if a fight starts, its one in all in. Keep this bloke extremely far away from our club, hes a...

    Opinion Tino and Gagai

    Im pissed off, 2 scumbags ganging up on a 22 year old, Gagai is 31, Tino a big forward. If our lads arent chomping at the bit to rip into these cowards ill be extremely dissapointed. Felt for Burto, but fair fucks to him, started swinging and didnt stop and stuck up for himself, hes clearly not...

    Opinion Please no Okunbor

    Allan out for a few weeks, Casey probably wont play after last week, please dont play Okunbor, bloke is getting terrorised in reserve grade. I like Kiraz at centre also so would pain me to have him on a wing, probably have to bring burns onto the wing?

    Opinion RFM

    Another weekend, another loss, been disappointment for 5 years and counting. I am super jealous of teams who win even 10 games a year at this point. When will this shit end?

    I said it last year....

    Today was a downright disgrace, I feel sick to my stomach, some players in that side Waddell, Dufty, Stimson, Tevita tonight, Okunbor, Naden were an absolute disgrace to the jersey, I said it last year and got given grief on here but after games like that, Id be booing them off, this club is...

Feel like if we lose all the hope from last week...

    Im sick of Barrett saying “80 minute performance”

    Im sick of Baz saying we arent playing an 80 minute performance, not every team in league plays for 80 minutes but when they arent playing well, they do have some resolve. Look at brisbane today, we had probably the best of the first 50 minutes, did they ship about 30 points and concede one...

We then get...

    Opinion Bias in the NRL

    Id say its pretty obvious that in the NRL , specific clubs get favouritism, (cough cough Melbourne, Panthers, Manly in particular) , it makes me laugh though how specific players get so much favouritism also, Cheese and Munster both did drugs over the offseason, Ive just watched NRL 360 and they...

    Knockonbur vs Feldt

    Genuinely, Im concerned about these two matching up, Okunbor even tho hes huge got out jumped by Mulitalo with ease vs Sharks, Feldt is one of the best at attacking the high ball in the Nrl, surely the Cowboys will be looking to bomb Okunbor to death. This isnt even considering the fact Okunbor...

    Opinion A 7 could take us to a new level

    After all our signings now, I feel a 7 could take us to the next level , like a real quality side, I dont know who but a controlling 7 to take pressure off Burto would be so good for us. 9 im unsure on im hoping cooks the goods, if he is, a 7 could be the missing piece to push us well into the 8

    Opinion Where do we play Cotric next year?

    Cotric will obviously be in the side next year, pisses me off all these predicted teams putting Katoa in when he wont be. I like Cotric but where does he play? Wing or Centre? Id prefer him on a wing but then we have the issue of, we are playing 600k for a winger. It ll either be Schoup centre...
  57. M

    Opinion Anyone else slightly concerned about who we play 7?

    I dont know who will be our 7 next year, I really think an experienced 7 like Johnson would have been a perfect fit to take the pressure off Burton. Averillo isnt a controlling 7, Flannagan is really struggling and BBO doesnt look like a controlling 7 anyway but id like to see him have a crack...

    Dogs fans petition club to keep Lewis

    What the hell, the fact there are fans like this concern me , we need to get rid of him, get rid of all this deadwood thats made us shit for years, theres a reason Lewis hasnt been in the side, hes simply not good enough!
  59. M

    Opinion Paul Alamoti

    Anyone got highlights of this guy? Got a huge rap from everyone at the club, glad we didnt try bring him in this year to play with this shower of shite, dont think him getting passes down by his knees from Lewis would help him. Hope he gets game time alongside the fox next year.
  60. M

    Forwards, forwards, forwards

    Only position in backline that worries me now is 7, Averillo isnt a controlling 7 for me and Burto is better as a 6. Id like that to be addressed, however christ we need forwards, our pack is so shit, minus Thompson, people moaning about TPJ but id take him every day, hes aggressive and...
  61. M

    This only highlights how shit we are

    Think we all knew we d of lost today but 66-0 is an absolute disgrace, this team are so so bad even the current signings next year are going to barely make a difference as it stands we need atleast 4-5 quality players to be competitive again. Today showed firstly that Averillo isnt a halfback...

    Opinion Cade Cust?

    A bloke who seems to be on the outer at Manly, a real spark , I know Manly fans who really rate him, could deffo play 9. Being linked to the Warriors currently, why not us?
  63. M

    Opinion Thoughts on Connor Watson?

    Watson can play a number of positions, including 9 and provides a real spark when he does play, should we consider going for him obviously if B Smith doesnt happen? Id be pretty happy if we did get him.
  64. M

    Opinion Possible backline 2022

    1. Averillo 2. Cotric 3. Schoup 4. Naden 5.JAC 6.Burto 7.Johnson With rumours SJ is nearly done, that backline on paper can match it with anyone, I pray the club gets some forwards and a 9 so they are able to perform at their best on the back of it.
  65. M

    Rumour Has anyone got any news on a 9 or forwards?

    These are two positions we massively need to strengthen next year, I know there is time still but the lack of quality forwards available and Smith seemingly unlikely, does anyone have any good transfer rumours to share?!
  66. M

    Averillo position

    I know he had a brilliant game today at 7 but did anyone hear what Baz said about where he can play? He said, 6,7 or fullback, makes me think if we get Johnson next year to partner Burto, Averillo at 1 with players like JAC, Naden and Cotric could be absolutely lethal. Averillo would be...

    Rumour Mikaele?

    Seen rumours going around about DWZ for Mikaele, thoughts on this? He weighs 109kg and is 23, surely adds abit of size and go forward to our team, It d really hurt me to see Dwz get 880k or whatever it is next year when hes nowhere near worth that, even though I think hes done okay this year and...

    Rumour Mitch Kenny

  69. M

    If no Cheese, who the hell do we sign at 9?

    I cant see another year of JMK or Katoa, both wont find any other club in the Nrl when they leave us, and theres good reason for that, they are terrible. If we dont buy a 9 next year and some forwards, there will be a slight improvement but we stikl finish bottom 4.
  70. M

    Opinion How good is Schoupp?

    ive never seen him play properly, can anyone tell me how good Shoup is? How old is he? Should I be worried that with the curren state of our centres, its taken him this long to get a shot? Is he a star or just an average junior?
  71. M

    Number 9

    Im genuinely concerned the club isnt going to bring in a solution to our biggest issue for the past 5 years, a number 9. If Smith does stay at Storm, we have to throw money at and even maybe overpay for a quality 9. Our 9s currently are the worst in the comp, we ll never make big progression...
  72. M

    Opinion Flannagan needed a break however...

    I have no issue with Flanagan having a week or two out, hes not been good enough, I stand by him however as minus Thompson hes behind a shocking pack. However why are players like Katoa, Napa and Waddell still in the side?? These blokes are a disgrace to the jersey and are on contracts...

    Who do we think our fullback will be for next year?

Meaney is a decent fullback but in my opinion just lacks star quality, hes a...

    How good is Luke Thompson

    I love Thommo!

    Remember when people said dont get Marshall?

    I remember idiots on here saying Benji would be a terrible signing, the facts are he has more creativity than most of our players combined. Putting him as experience next to a you g Flannagan for a year then at 14 when Burton comes would of been a great move, especially on a cheap contract...

    Worst pack in the comp?

    It really concerns me I still have not seen us linked ti any 9s, honestly our biggest issue, id even take Danny Levi who is leaving Manly at the end of the season at this rate, hes better than JMK. JMK has been there for years and we have always looked clueless at 9, we need to spend big money...

    Is this the worst Nrl side ever?
