Official Round 7 Bulldogs V Sharks - Team Lists and Discussion Thread

[Raysie]

There's so many issues with this lineup. Wouldn't even know where to begin with criticism.

 

[bradyk]

I'm not sure why we'd swap Waddell and Smith playing them both out of their preferred posiitons.

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have been forced into a number of changes for this Saturday's fixture against the Sharks at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium (5:30PM AEST).
With Jack Hetherington suspended, Dylan Napa and Luke Thompson will be the starting props, with Renouf Atoni returning to the bench.
Atoni will be joined by Prop Ava Seumanufagai, who will make his first NRL appearance for the Bulldogs. Ava has previously made 118 NRL appearances for the Wests Tigers (2013-17) and Sharks (2018), in addition to playing for Leeds in the Super League for the past two seasons.

Other changes will see:
- Chris Smith start for the first time this year in the second row with Corey Waddell moving back to lock
- Matt Doorey come into the starting 17 for the first time this season. *Doorey made 5 NRL appearances last year at the back end of the season
- Hooker Brad Deitz also comes on to the bench to replace the injured Jackson Topine who has bone bruising to his knee and is expected to be out for at least two weeks
*Winger Nick Cotric will play his 100th NRL game against the Sharks

Can you bold the part that mentions the lightweight **** Topine is injured so all these dumb ***** stop whinging about him not being listed

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Renouf gets benched again and waddell keeps his spot lol

He surely starts, Baz would be a fucking idiot to bench him.

 

[Mr. Ditkovich]

Not much we can do with the backline, but here’s what I’d do with the forward pack:

8. Napa (would start him for 25 minutes, then bench him for the rest of the game)
9. Katoa (same as Napa)
10. Thompson
11. Elliott
12. Doorey
13. C. Smith

14. Deitz
15. Atoni (bring him on after the game’s settled a bit)
16. Ogden
17. Ava

nah fuck ogden off, he was shocking.

 

[NPC83]

Napa and Waddell is going to be a express way for the Sharks down the middle of the field.

Hopefully Meaney comes in for Tui

Yeah I’d be surprised if Meaney doesn’t come in for Tui. Probably depends how he trains closer to game day.

 

[LordSidious66]

Only issue I have is Napa starting and Ogden being dropped. Not much we can do with this shit.

 

[BULLDVGS]

Yeah I’d be surprised if Meaney doesn’t come in for Tui. Probably depends how he trains closer to game day.

Would rather tui stay and Hoppa out, Cotric to centre and meaney on the wing

 

[Mr. Ditkovich]

nah fuck ogden off, he was shocking.

It’s a choice between Waddell and Ogden unfortunately, and Ogden would be a better bench player.

 

[kungfuman]

Topine?

bone bruise 2 weeks

 

[Donkey Slayer]

Only issue I have is Napa starting and Ogden being dropped. Not much we can do with this shit.

Ogden is one useless really dumb **** his no loss

 

[LordSidious66]

Couldn’t pick a much weaker side than that. Not sure what topine did wrong but ah well go the dogs

Read the damn thing. He is injured.

 

[NPC83]

I'm not sure why we'd swap Waddell and Smith playing them both out of their preferred posiitons.

I think Smith offers a bit more on an edge with his foot work to be honest. Waddell will have a simple job just tackle your guts out.

 

[BULLDVGS]

It’s a choice between Waddell and Ogden unfortunately, and Ogden would be a better bench player.

dropped the ball and then made a shocking defensive read leading to robson scoring, should never play again.

 

[CBDoggies]

Yep that’s it keep hoppa in the centre’s and start Napa. Trent deserves the sack he is pretty much asking for it. Same fucking shit team same shit result.
slap anyone in place of hoppa and give Napa a run at Mounties for the the rest of the year. Play anyone else there I don’t care

 

[kungfuman]

I'm not sure why we'd swap Waddell and Smith playing them both out of their preferred posiitons.

Because in thier preferred positions they are shit

 

[Spoonman84]

nah fuck ogden off, he was shocking.

Ogden is the same level as Napa for mine.

Both are totally useless.

 

[Scoooby]

Let the meltdown commence.

Ready....

Fuck sake. We are going to to get a cricket score put against us, what a shit team we are fielding.!!!

flip side - we win this one, first win of the year, very winnable , underdogs to take it away from those fish

 

[bells76]

He surely starts, Baz would be a fucking idiot to bench him.

So far all evidence points to this.
