A bit confused about your lineup....the thread is about 2009, its in the title. Why then have you left out.... Morris, Ennis, Hannant and kimmorley? You think they should be sidelined so some kids can play? Waste of a lot of money then. Please explain.

If the club complains about depth next year, that will do me. The squad is looking very good but we need one more Prop like Cashmere.

 

[dogsrareligion]

Kite will be playing FG next year for sure

 

[DOGGOD]

Kite is a great player. Runs for 200 metres a game. Thats good in my books

 

[SaMi..]

200metres in toyota cup, playing against his age group..

so IMO, ill convert that to playing FG against different age and sizes...

atleast 100metres per game..still good enough for me

 

[Belmorebro]

200metres in toyota cup, playing against his age group..

so IMO, ill convert that to playing FG against different age and sizes...

atleast 100metres per game..still good enough for me

I'd like to see Armit, Cleal, D. Williams, Leaeno or Ma'afu run 200 metres in a Toyota Cup game. None of them could, but all have tasted 1st grade NRL this year.

Kite to partner Hannant and Ennis in the Bulldogs front row in 2009.

 

[aarooni]

good side but i think kites gonna be a bench option by next year.his dominance got him resigned and im sure the dogs are impressed with him.if vicelich comes back from injure and gets a run you will see another big bloke that can play.a lot can change before 2009 but we are def buliding a strong 2009 player roster.

they cant play NYC because they are over 20

Kite will be top 25 next season but dont expect him to be regular starter

1. Patten
2. Nanai
3. Winitnana
4. Morris
5. Utai
6. Roberts
7. Kimmorley

16. Hickey
17. Kite


Ben and jamal to be promoted to the top 25

 

[kingdog]

ive really disappointed with the sullivan.. and think we should be keeping hughes instead of him!

1 Luke Patten
2 Hazem El Masri
3 Daryl Millard (if he can pick his pace up)/Josh Morris
4 Tim Winitana
5 Josh Morris/Matt Utai/Heka Nanai
6 Daniel Holdsworth/Ben Roberts
7 Brett Kimmorley
8 Jarrod Hickey
9 Corey Hughes/Michael Ennis
10 Ben Hannant
11 SBW
12 Ryan
13 Maitua

14 Koups/Armit/Williams
15 Te Mari/Armit/Williams
16 Kleal/Armit/Williams
17 Ben Roberts/Ennis/Sullivan

if we get rid of hughes.. play roberts off the bench with ennis starting.. if we keep hughes play roberts at 6 and ennis off the bench

WE NEED TO GET ONE MORE FRONT ROWER

 

[kingdog]

tsolous is retirin isnt he?

 

[KL]

tsolous is retirin isnt he?

bulldogs tony said that.

 

[aarooni]

i think our go ford has made sullo look very average.does anyone think that ennis/groom is a good combo next year?nothing set until rd 1 2009.
