Official Round 9 - Bulldogs vs Dragons Game Day Thread

[B-Train]

Would love to see last minute changes of Brown for Sutton, KO for Okunbur and Skelton for Casey.. Skelton is the least likely to play but I'd love to see him get a chance. Especially against a suspect Dragons defence where he could make a huge impact.

 

[BulldogsMate]

here’s rfm’s press conference from today.

 

[KiwiDog7]

Grub definitely starting 6 be interesting if Oloapu jags a bench spot

 

[bigdog1979]

Quick question team , looking at heading down to win any idea where bulldogs supporters normally sit ?

 

[AlzzBulldog]

If Reynolds dosent overplay his hand, he could be a decent partner for Burton tbh, if it doesn’t work then Karl will come on
win win

 

[ILiveForDib]

Either KO or Brown takes a bench spot 100%. Reynolds will play 40, possibly opening stages of second half and KO will sub in for 20-30 minutes. Handy having Brown back, Reynolds cops an injury he can occupy five eight with KO off the bench. Either way it was inevitable at some point this season that average citizen was going to be dropped, shame we have to worsen our reserve side but it’s only until the end of the year. Best of luck to KO, and a early fuck you to the fat armchair wankers who shit talk him.

First time we’ve played win stadium in years. The last time we suppose to covid hit the week after and the games moved to Queensland. Can’t wait it only down road from my place I haven’t been to a game in years cause I wasn’t happy with direction of club. I won a family pass on local radio down here in Wollongong. Hopefully get the win

On the hill usually mate. Bring your poncho...and maybe some tent pegs to hold you down.

I'm new to the site and a fellow Dogs supporter it's excellent news Kyle Flannagan isn't in the side. I never was aware of a Bulldogs forum, or at least a page as active as this one. Read some interesting stuff to say the least though at the same time some great opinions.

Will be attending this game anticipating a win. Kyle out the team should have the attack flowing better.

That stadiums right on the ocean isn’t it, must be exposed and a bitch to play in strong winds .. ?

Imagine if in a couple rounds our backline is finally formed as this. To me its the strongest we can field this year once the young pups get a crack

Averillo 92kg
Fox 88kg
Alamoti 98kg
Kiraz 92kg
Skelton 104kg
Burton 96kg
Karl 94kg

Postions can be swapped in game

Adding Crichton at 99kg next year

Out backline are monsters just need them to play like it

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

Who replaces Reynolds when hes gassed?

 

[Brendan7]

You know you are a diabolical half when you get axed for a cooked Reynolds hahaha

far out bye bye Flannotripe

 

[surfdog]

Doubt it. MORRIN AND hughes were very good on the weekend, and habe earnt their call up.

Reynolds is no chance to play 80mins, thought KO bench for that reason..like Morrin, he.puts I'm

 

[spscand]

Reynolds at 6 for 80min? Cant be right. He wont last. Surely CC isnt that dumb. Right? Right? Im starting to think he might be lol

 

[spscand]

Taking bets again:

Reynolds to trip someone @ 0.99
Reynolds to be a turnstile in defence @0.5
Reynolds to throw a pass to an opposition player and run over the sideline before the siren @0.01
Reynolds to "BRING THE ENERGY" @ 15056

Plz. Crypto only bets. 10x

I like this idea of RFM as part of prop rotation. With our limited creativity in the halves, a ball playing lock would do wonders to help the attack. I never rated Edwards last year but from the cup games I have watched this year it seems he has improved his game heaps. He is distributing the ball well and taking the hit up when the pass is not on (obviously not saying he is anywhere near as good but his playing style reminds me of Yeo). RFM just has no ball playing ability

Reminds me of a young Steve Price.

 

[Berries]

Dragons to shoot out to a 18-0 lead right up the guts
Now Reynolds is playing
