NRL market watch 2023: Knights star tours Bulldogs facilities
Fresh from luring away and spending on a Broncos talent, Bulldogs boss Phil Gould has already walked another star talent from a rival club through the Bulldogs facilities.
Phil Rothfield
Newcastle’s English winger Dominic Young is in talks with the Canterbury Bulldogs as Phil Gould continues his multimillion-dollar buying spree.
News Corp can reveal the 21-year-old winger toured the Bulldogs’ Belmore headquarters on Friday afternoon with Gould and coach Cameron Ciraldo.
Rated among the top half dozen wingers in the game, Young is off contract at the Knights at the end of this season.
He has also had talks with the South Sydney Rabbitohs, who have out their assistant coach and fellow Englishman Sam Burgess on the case.

Ciraldo is pleased with his talent in the Bulldogs’ outside backs but is always looking to strengthen the team. Gould has a huge opinion of the youngster from West Yorkshire.
Young scored 14 tries in 20 games for Newcastle this year.
He also scored nine tries in five games at the World Cup.
News Corp understands Young is keen to move to Sydney but the Knights are fighting desperately hard to sign him on a long-term deal.
They have two other English players arriving next year - Will Pryce and Kai Pearce-Paul who will add plenty of strike power at a club that struggled last year – and probably help their chances of keeping Young.
