Here is the off 2021 off contract list. Would only keep, Averillo, To'omaga, Ogden and maybe Okunbur. The rest can leave.View attachment 17215
Exactly. I mentioned this a few time. We have 2 bites of the “war chest” as we have a couple of million off contract at the end of next year too.

from the top of my head only zelezniak, Jackson, Stimson, Thompson and whoever we signed this year (cotric etc) are contracted beyond next year.

With a good coach and good management there is no reason why we can’t completely rebuild (like 09-12) and become a top 5 team.

Interesting in tomorrows crunch match against the chooks , Ricky Stuart preferred moving Ropana instead of Cotric into the centres. He does not think much of Cotric as a centre
Seriously? After Rapana's absolute mess fest last week at centre, the only thing stopping Sticky from putting Cotric there is pride.

Bulldogs fan here: wakeham and burton in halves , Lewis to lock, averillo to centre/fullback. Lewis will stiffen the defence. No one wants to run at him he is a tackling machine. Hoppa and cotric centres Meaney and onkabor wing. I have an erection

lewis is not a lock, he misses more tackles than other off half, he tackles low and gets dominated where teams target him close to the line because he cant get a dominate tackle

Lewis shouldn't be in 1st grade at all let alone being mentioned at lock he got no pace he don't like running the ball his defence is not as good as people make it out to be he misses more then he makes

We know Napa's going to play due to his pay packet, at least start the season at prop or on the bench. Benji is good if Green retires. That new hooker needs to be a banger.

I think so heard it today that he was recommended and back up by Luke thompson
Don’t know too much about him but would have to be the lightest front row in NRL history wouldn’t it?

Luke also had a post on insta saying happy birthday to his best mate Mankinson saying how much he missed him. We should try swap DWZ for him too lol

You’re right, no one will run at Lewis.

They’ll run around him.

While his 1 on 1 defence is good on forwards, he’s not agile enough to catch the faster players who run around him.

Yeah, watched some highlights of this guy and he seems very decent tho hard to gauge with the super league. But, definitely wasn't the biggest fella on the park. That being said, does have some big wraps on him. Swear I read somewhere Bennett talking him up as a future star for England?
