Josh Morris to leave the Bulldogs
Bulldogs centre Josh Morris will leave Belmore at the end of this season to take up a two year contract with the Sharks.
Morris, who joined the Bulldogs in 2009, has currently made 209 NRL appearances for the club.
Chief Executive Andrew Hill paid tribute to Morris' tenure at the club:
"Josh has been an outstanding servant to the Bulldogs over a ten year career and is a big part of our history during that periodThe club made him an extremely competitive offer to stay, but he has decided to take up a contract with the Sharks. We are disappointed to see him leave but we understand that he has done what he thinks is right at this stage of his career. We look forward to seeing him finish this season strongly with the club and leaving with some great memories.".

Moses Mbye and Aaron Woods left immediately while Morris will at least get an end-of-season farewell as the club battles to get its well-known salary cap problems in order.
"You don't want it to happen," prop Aiden Tolman said.
"You don't want to see players like Aaron Woods and Moses - who has been here a long time - or J-Moz who has been here for 10 years. You don't want to see those players go.
"But that's professional sport. He had an opportunity at another club and he's got a young family so he took that up.
"It's disappointing because he is such a quality player and he's a good person so to lose a player like that. But he had to do what's best for himself so he is going to a great club."
