I thought RFM by a mile best forward on the field

i think it is jus a selection issue either Tualua or Ogden would have made a difference one more big body

He can sit next to me he has served the club it isn’t like he got paid for his role. He tried I understand people disagree with his style but he will always be a bulldogs man and we stick together.

I haven't seen a post with potential teams next year that has Jayden Okunbor in the list I have watched him play in the juniors and he has the potential to be another Sonny Bill or Idris a young, big kid with speed and strength. I think if he can crack first grade he could be a revelation.

Well said I am a bit sick of the anti Reynolds stuff too he his a local junior one of our elite players and I have had a few dealings with him as the coach of a local Junior team. He has come to our training taken heaps of time to talk to all our boys given tshirts and even played a small game...

I love that this young guy is being trained up by Graham if he could get some of his skill and hardness in the next few years watch out.

Would love to see Beale in the Blue and White followed his career since his schoolboy days for Joeys. Even as a teenager was a step ahead of everyone else on the field under a coach like Des would be a magician in League with the bigger gap in the defence and two less defenders on the field.

Hey I just wanted to gauge people's opinion on the Souths Tactics of playing their fans cheering through the speakers at the ground it is borderline cheating. The good news is when the Dogs got on a roll yesterday we drowned it our anyway but for me I think it is poor form and the NRL should put...

I think you are so off the mark about Ennis and Reynolds I think they are best of mates but both outspoken and super competitive I'm sure they have heated discussions who hasnt had a heated discussion with a mate you are still mates tomorrow. I have seen them down at training laughing mucking...

What a bunch of sexist crap. I never saw one post about what Greenberg looked like. Who cares what she looks like can she do the job thats the question. And from the looks of things she has signed one of the hottest properties on the market so she must be doing something right.

I think it is an OK team I think there are a few guys that are quicker than you think like Lachlan Burr I know you will be laughing but I saw him at Training and he was quick. Also Low is not playing Halfback because he is Number 7 it is nines all the positions are different.

I went down and watched training the other day and for full back they rotated between Perret, Drury Lowe, and Tyrone Phillips all of them played pretty good. But Inu was not there. The thing that I saw as interesting was Mitch Brown was on the wing with Morris, Lowe was at wing with Chase...

You need to get off the drugs!

So now the rumour mill starts for a replacement. I think someone like Paul Dunn would be good on the board committed to the club good business credentials. Any other nominations?

Did anyone notice one of the Kennel's favourite sons has been named to play in NSW Cup for the Illawarra Cutters. That is right the one and only Jarrod Hickey not sure if this is someone else but really there can be only one Hicksta. Go Big Fella

I know this is left field but Keating to Fullback and Hodkinson to Half. Keating offers more ball playing and is a good runner and Hodkinson better at steering around the Park.

What a nob!

If anyone needs some tickets I have a grandstand family pass but cant go will be in NZ that weekend they are for sale $80 but will take reasonable offers. email me @ evo@theembassy.com.au if you are interested.

What a way to talk about our club captain you should ashamed of yourself. If you support the club then support them.

I thought he was good too. When he said to that Dragons fan "aren't you scared." I thought it was classic.

1. Barba 2. Turner 3. Brown 4. Morris 5. Lett 6. Reynolds 7. Hodkinson 8. Tolman 9. Ennis 10. Kasiano 11. Eastwood 12. Halatau 13. Stagg 14. Romelo 15. Graham 16. Payne 17. Tapau That would be my team if Pritchard is out. Also Lett was on fire in reserve grade two tries and...

I think some people on this thread have been smoking crack. Barba is probably one of the best attacking players we have and these comments about his passing and stuff is rubbish. Did you see his try the other night he was so fast he made two wingers look like they were standing still...

With the First Trial on Saturday when do you think they are going to announce the Team? It will be interesting with No Barba, Pritchard, probably no Ennis or Hodkinson. What team will Des put on the park? I am chaffing at the bit to see what he does I would like to see Jackson and...

I find it interesting that everyone picked Tolman in their starting team, when I believe he is too small to play that position. If he is going to get away with being a small prop he needs to be getting much faster play the balls but hasnt been able to because he is getting owned all the time...

For sure it was the last round 2002 against the Broncos after being kicked out of the comp and having an amazing winning streak stopped. That game was our Grand Final that year and they were a real good side but we beat em and the celebration just went off we all ran on the field at the Show...

I heard it was Tolman

1. Barba 2. Lafai 3. Morris 4. Mac Dougall 5. Turner 6. Reynolds 7. Hodkinson 8. Graham 9. Ennis 10. Kasiano 11. Pritchard 12. Tolman 13. Halatau 14. Eastwood 15. Finucane 16. Stagg 17. Tapau Good Blend of Youth and Experience. I also think Romelo has deserved being...

Sandy Campbell

I would like to see Reynolds given a go at 6 I think he shows the Bulldogs attitude backs himself in defence and rips into the team when they are slacking. I am hoping Joey can turn him into a top class No6. I like Romelo as well did you see the hit he put on Moi Moi last year? Evan

I'd like to see Finucane and Jackson get a run they are both long term future stars for the club

Actually this might be hard to believe but Kingsgrove are aligned to the Roosters.

I heard a rumour that Bankstown Sports is not going to be our feeder club next year but Auburn is that true?

It will be so much better though going to watch training back at belmore than that crappy park at Silverwater

This whole discussion is ridiculous. I think it is great he is given a chance people are talking as though Dessy is already signed which I think will never happen if Manly let him go they have rocks in their head. I think Dymock was a breath of fresh air a coach loved the style we played...

1. Barba 2. Turner 3. Lafai 4. Morris 5. Wright 6. Reynolds 7. Hodkinson 8. Kasiano 9. Ennis (C) 10. James 11. Pritchard 12. Tolman 13. Halatau 14. Romelo 15. Eastwood 16. Stagg 17. Finucane/Jackson

I think even though we lost we played with heart and were in it right up to our necks to the final whistle. a Couple crap calls and some rubbish finishing lost it for us. For mine Dymock for president.

I hope they are serious about giving him a chance to impress. Because this is how we do things we dont need a big name coach we need a Dogs coach. One that understands our style and Dymock gets it. We bash teams that is how we play I thought we were starting that way at the begininng of the...

1. Barba 2. Turner 3. Roberts 4. Morris (last chance next week in Reggies) 5. Lett 6. Reynolds 7 Hodkinson (Last Chance) 8. Browne 9. Romelo 10. Kasiano 11. Tolman 12. Pritchard 13. Halatau (Captain) 14. Ryan 15. Paea 16. Eastwood 17. Idris What about that for a side?

With the way we are playing at the moment I would bring back Anasta because at least he has a go and looks shattered when he loses. We could do with a leader like that.

1 Barba 2 Idris 3 Lafai 4 Morris 5 Turner 6 Roberts 7 Keating 8 Tolman 9 Ennis 10 Kasiano 11 Pritchard 12 Eastwood 13 Halatau 14 Stagg 15 Ryan 16 Browne 17 Payne

I think if we are going to get a new coach we should get one of our own. I would not want someone like Brown or Meninga who doesnt know our club or culture. We have had a few coaches in other clubs that are Canterbury people like Andrew Farrar, Mick Hagan, or Mick Potter or even just keeping...

I am with ya I have a good feeling

I think we need to keep the team we have and they need to just step up. I think the Loss on the weekend was the motivation we need. NSW history should teach us there is no gain in constantly chopping and changing your team we need to back them and challenge them to lift. The only changes...

I am stoked that we only need to cover for one position and that is a position where we have a few able replacements. My allegiance is to the Dogs before NSW. Go Ennis and I think Reynolds deserves a shot he had great from in the trials and was unlucky I thought. I like Romelo too he is a...

Warburton is 18th man for first grade

The Timani Player for the Waratahs is not the same guy that played for us last year in NYC. Sitaleki Timani plays for the Tahs Lopeti Timani played for us but I dont know what happened to him Also Barba Turner Morris Idris Goodwin Keating Hodkinson Tolman Ennis Kasiano...

I think this thread is Crazy . We have lost a heap of Experience with Kimmorley and Patten Going Ryan is important for us. I think it is fine to play Ryan a little tighter. Ryan did have a hard time last year because our front row was getting owned every week. I think Ryan playing a...

I have scoured the net trying to find some video of the trial. Does any have anything they could post I would love to see those Barba Breaks.

Gary Warburton

Gavin Hill Dallas McIlwain

Possibles probables is a trial format where the likely team plays those trialling for a spot. Also Chris is a complete Tool

I went down to training and they seemed to be training in a possible probables format and the Probables looked like this. 1. Turner 2. Lett 3. Idris 4. Morris 5. Goodwin 6. Roberts 7. Hodkinson 8. Tolman 9. Ennis 10. Armit 11. Ryan 12. Foster 13. Halatau 14. Paea 15...

Hey I just wanted to ask if anyone else thinks Josh Reynolds deserves a chance in first grade. I doubt he will get it now that they have signed Hodkinson and Keating but I think that he has paid his dues had a great season in NSW Cup leading the team to a premiership. I have thought he...

This is my team but I would like to see some guys like Lett and Millington get a go. I will be interested to see the NSW Cup team because some of those guys from last year should be knocking on the door. Like that second rower I cant rememeber his name but had a game or two in first grade and...

Hate to say it but Dogs are a disgrace That was some of the worst defence I have ever seen. What do some of the players need to do to get dropped. Sorry but Ryan and Patten are legends of the club but they are playing like a busted. Bring up some young talent because there is no way we...

I reckon Poore would be a good signing he played origin last year had a great season obviously something hasn't worked at Parra. If they end up paying part of his salary to come to us that would be awesome.

Does anyone know what happened there it looked to me like Andrew Fifita was having a go. And what is up with Robbie Farah sledging our support staff boot off idiot.

I am not sure if you are talking about the same guy. He is big but not a second rower no way in the world.

Unfortunately I think they way the comp is going now with two refs it is really hard to arrest momentum from a team. On monday one dumb mistake let them into the match and they got on a roll. I thought some ref decisions went against us. The luck was on their side I think this was summed up...

The Only Changes I would make would be Conrad for Browne he has earned his shot and hits hard reminds me a little of Dean Pay. And Roberts for Harrison, Roberts is a little out of form but can cover most backline positions as well as hooker if we have injuries I have never liked all forwards...

Good to see we are culturally sensitive on here. Maybe Armit will be back this weekend if not Browne is good Big bloke and fairly fit I saw him play NSW cup in a trial he didn't set the world on fire. I would try Benson Tupou he has been in the lower grades for us. Runs hard not super big but...

I reckon that guy Crabtree from the UK would be good. Do you remember him from the England Test team he is a massive unit mobile and hits like a truck he also has a pony tail so you can make comments about his hairstyle.

I did think to myself has Brandy been smokin weed again. What on earth was he thinking putting the Doggies and Parra out of the top four but Penrith in. Give yourself an upper cut The Panthers will be lucky to make the eight. Good team on paper but way too inconsistent.

I think it is a good move it gives you a ball player early and if you need impact in the second row you can use Paea. I think it is a very good move. I am looking for a big year from Barba I think we might not want to sign Mortimer Barba is our next half back.

Sam ends up with the chick in the end if anything Frodo is the gay guy.

Like this team I would swap Warburton into the starting team but that is it.

At the games I am the Hickey Fan Club. Go tha Hicksta All the people sitting around me have a go and usually when they do he scores a try. The Hicksta is the Doggies version of Samwise Gamge.

Go you good thing

What about the teams anyone know who's playing for NSW Cup and NYC?

I know now I asked that three days ago

I think he is a good player plays hard every week. I think he looked the fittest I have ever seen him at the trial last week. I reckon he would make more tackles and play harder than half of you whingers on this site. Go Tha Hickster for Dally M

Thanks for the help. Maybe if some of the Nif Nuffs on here spent less time swearing at each other and putting soft porn pictures you might know what is going on.

Who knows where and when the NSW Cup and NYC trials are this weekend?

Player of the year: Ben Hannant Highest Tryscorer: Josh Morris Rep Players: Josh Morris, Jamal Idris, Michael Ennis, Ben Hannant, David Stagg Team will finish this position:3 Wooden spooners: Knights Rising star: Ben Barba First Grade Debut: Paki Afu

Paki Afu for sure and Arthur Brown looks good in NYC big unit for a centre and silky skills for a big guy.

What about Sandy Campbell? Or Jason Hethrington?

1. Greg Brentnall 2. Peter Mortimer 3. Chris Mortimer 4.Nigel Vagana 5. Hazem El Masri 6. Terry Lamb 7. Steve Mortimer 8. Peter Kelly 9. George Peponis 10. Paul Dunn 11. Simon Gillies 12. Steve Folkes 13. Jim Dymock 14. Jason Hethrington 15. Willie mason 16. Roy Asotasi 17...

I think Ennis because his i sthe position where we have the least back up. If he were to go down I think all of the people we have to play hooker have very limited experience and Dene Halatau even though he has played Hooker I don't think it is his best position.

I disagree abou Paki it isnt his size that is his asset it is his mind he is a very clever footballer very often in the right place at the right time. Good line runner I think he will go down in the line of great second rowers the Doggies have produced over the years. And Barba doesnt have...

Has anyone got the etails for this weeks NYC trial I think it is in Newcastle?

And so was Johnathon Thurston and he goes alright. The problem is it is a big jump from NYC to First Grade. They want to rush people through instead of giving them time to develop their game. We have had a few players coming through the ranks who you could see would be good. SBW, Nate Myles...

Paki Afu will not play alot of firstgrade. He will get sorted out quick smart. You have got to be kidding he is one of the best forwards in NYC last year of any club. he will play a lot of fg. You watch

I think the 2002 team was pretty special if not for the salary cap thing would have gone down as one of the all time great sides. I also think Nigel Vagana played really good for us for a while. Also Willie Tonga had a great year 2004 for us. Agree that Patten has ben the most consistent for...

He is a tank he is in the Israel Folau category for size I think with a bit of work he could be a star good hand skills for a big man. Maybe needs to learn to use his size better but that will come.

Loved it What about Hannants first hit on him in the semi that was a cracker as well.

Also we held our own for the first 30 mins I think we were even leading and then that team that played the first 30 didn't come back on. I thought Arthur Brown looked to be a talent as well as Timani I think his name is he was the guy with the tied up afro he looks to be a hard man as well.

You have been smoking Crack mate Millard is a solid performer for us I don't think any tries were scored down his side last week. You have issues mate

I agree with Sailor totally he is a freak

Reminds me a lot of Steve Reardon I remember him when he first came into grade not that special but in the end a legend. Keep it up Gary

Has anyone got Big League yet the team should be in there if the Dogs wont post it

Newspapers should be ashamed of themselves. The guys is still a teenager leave him alone. Write about how he plays not how he looks. And you guys help by buying in and calling him names as well

Wake up to yourself and speak with respect when you are speaking about a legend. Highest point scorer in the history of rugby league.

Props

You can only play what i in front of you. All Teams have players out every week. It is like you are questioning our form. What about against Souths they were close to full strength. Also it is not like Parra were winning with Hindmarsh or Cronulla were winning with Barrett. This week we will be...

3Ennis 2Stagg 1Morris

I watched the game again and I tell you what Utai's D was terrible but his runs were inspiring. Give him a chance this could be a master stroke.

Why not just pick both of them both can play second receiver both are a threat and as we have seen with teams like souths this year with the speed of the game late in the half having two dummy half threats could be a killer. For mine pick them both
