Having already signed Nick Cotric, the Bulldogs are now considering an approach to injury-prone Brisbane Broncos star Jack Bird to switch to Belmore next year.

I don't know whats happened to him but if we manage to bring out the best in him you're getting one of the best players in the comp. At a reasonable price he is worth the punt.

Yes that’s very true. And with Barrett coming in then it could very well pay off.!! Things are starting to sound positive already. And if there’s any truth to it, then it seems the coach is already doing a better job than pay Attracting players etc, before even arriving.!!

Nasheed here, I told you this ages ago. Dogs have long been after Bird but the sticking price is the money as he's on an absurd amount.

nark my words. If broncos pitch in enough he's a Belmore boy.

btw it wasn't just my mail that said this. Other kennelers heard the same

He's more fragile than Foran, that's what happened to him.

Fuck we knew this would happen hey... Alot of us called it a while back... Get rid of Foran and just waste his money on this injury prone **** haha
If we did get him id prefer he play lock and Thompson move to #10, but that means Jackson stays on the edge where he's ineffective.

Broncos would be desperate to offload him worth the gamble at the right place

Honestly prefer to take a punt on Albert Hopoate and his 3 ACLs than Bird

People lose their shit that Foran is always injured. I think this guy plays half the game Foran does :p

I wouldn’t even pick him up for free let alone paying for him. Guy is done unfortunately. And although I don’t doubt he will make it back to the nrl. I doubt he will ever be as good as he once was.

Hey now thats a great idea isn’t it? Bring another expensive as fuck player to the club who only plays 10 games a season, he will fit in well with Foran and a great way to take the club forward hey... not! I’ll pass thanks

Firstly, this is Buck Wobblefield reporting.
Secondly, only if Bonkos pay 80% of the freight.
Thirdly, keep in mind this is Bark Liverrot saying this, in between swigs of cheap vodka
Fourthly, maximum 2 year contract
Fifthly, Butt Rockfield is an idiot

No way..... No more injury prone players on big coin.... If the whole foran saga isn't a lesson learnt, I mean how many mistakes do you need to make before you learn your lesson.... Good player but not what we need to move forward...
