I can’t understand why Skelton is not getting a run? I get it, you think he’s a project and you’re not sure if he’s ready, but this is the perfect opportunity.
it’s just 2 games, against average opposition, with nothing on the line.
what the fuck do you have to lose??
Let him play.

Why no Skelton with Kiraz and Burns out..
To be fair Perham is probs a better or at least more experienced centre. Can understand this one. Forcing JAC to play right to squeeze in Wilson that's crazy.

Agree.

Reason is though is to give Alamoti one last chance to prove himself ( off contract unlike Skelton) and Perham a chance in his preferred position.

You'll find Skelton will start next year

Yep, I did completely miss and I apologise.

Just hate how some just repeat "he can't defend" without actually watching him in reserves all year, to justify that dumb fuck assistant not playing him.
Let’s be honest, if they’ve been watching FG this year…
NONE OF THEM, CAN FUCKING DEFEND?!?

Bulldogs deserve a flogging Alone on coaches team selections .
I wouldn’t be surprised if some of our senior players asked their player managers to put some feelers out their.
TPJ maybe if he was more disciplined than cuddled he wouldn’t of caused this boxing circus and other rubbish.
As we all know now he will be with Wayne Bennett in 2024.
We need Potter back as coach,simple footy tough and hard as nuts and stripped back.
What we have is 17 plodders who look like they don’t wanna be out there and that’s putting it politely.
I’m assuming also Sutton and RFM are also jumping boat,based on team selection I’m guessing they have played their last games also.
We are shit not cause of not enough talent,we are poorly coached .
Our defence was ok early season and we where in the top 8 mix first 7 weeks.
Someone at bulldogs HQ needs to do some investigating.

Who’s going to the game vs who’s staying home to flush the misery of another defeat with a few drinks?

So who is/has gone from the 30?
Def: Davey, Brown, ok, Pele,
Maybe: Burns, Waddell, alamotti
Possible: Sutton, RFM.

Anyone else? TBF would resign Waddell and keep Sutton and RFM, just no one to replace them with.

Seems like any player who’s not yet re-signed is gone?
good start.
\_(ツ)_/¯ who knows. Fans will have to guess or ask the players as they go around the fence at full time if they are staying or leaving. I guess best guess is you are correct in that assumption. Bit sad to not have it publicly sorted before last home game so fans know. Another change in Bulldogs club dna? No official farewell? Maybe players families know tho so they can be there for them? Maybe there will be a kind of presentation? Sign of the times we are going through atm...Many fans be thinking would it be worth it and who cares?

Slow centres, gunna have to get the lateral shift sorted to give them a hand.
Still got 24 points in them so gotta get 47 missed tackles sorted
