The Bulldogs Jersey Flegg team will be looking to avenge last weekend's 30-22 loss against Canberra at Telstra Stadium.

In form backs Esi Tonga and Heka Nanai have both been ruled out for three and four weeks respectively - a major blow to the Dogs hopes.

The Bulldogs team to face Parramatta this Saturday is as follows:

1. Ryan Millard
2. Kele Niusere
3. David Te Huia
4. Chris Vaefaga
5. Mason Pure
6. Ben Barba
7. Daniel Ezekiel
8. Tom Moon
9. Jamie Clark (c)
10. Tamati Nathan
11. Daniel Harrison
12. Harlan Alaalatoa
13. Nathan Smith

Interchange:
14. James Boustani
15. John Kite
16. Chris Afamasaga
17. Nathan Dib
19. Luke Thompson
20. Shannon Cross

Ahh crap Nanai is a huge loss and Tonga was playing consistently well. They mite struggle 2 beat parra but parra themselves are very out of form, not sure how parra went last week though but we beat them like 48-14 2 weeks ago

Saw Nanai the other night on crutches.

He has a bit of Nate Myles forhead tbh

Damn it.. Not only a big loss for Flegg but for The Doggies if injury hits. He filled in well.

Here's to a quick recovery

 

[Ben Godberts]

there backline is still good vaegfa and te huia are both solid young players

 

[iWahash]

as long as barba's still there..we'll be fine

 

[Hansta]

Peter Tuiafiso played a game of Flegg a few weeks back.

Kele is not on a contract at the moment so they are giving him a chance.

If you don't tell Nate Myles he will never miss it. He has plenty to spare

ok cheers
us

david a solid defender so no loss in defence

just looked up peters contract 2010 good stuff

u know if dogs are talking to resign shannon cross??? for 1year at least since his eligable for flegg in 2008 and his a good prop

also
do u think aaron groom will play half /or hooker?
i think half

that would mean we still need to buy 1/2 hookers for pl
if they dont move clark up and he hasnt resigned yet
cheers

Where is Brendan Hikaka?

I was really impressed with Shannon Cross last week. From what I saw (last 10 minutes which isn't too much too base anything on) he looks great.

Ben Barba didn't do much in that time period except for back up for a try.

Daniel Ezekiel was best on ground (in the last 10 minutes that is)

they are huge losses, so lets hope the boys can get the job done
