No one but Buzz could get drunk enough to compare Doorey to JT. Apparently he even wasted some of his life getting opinions on the situation from every other club about it! Any real convo's would've went something like:

Buzz: "What do you think about the Bulldogs losing young superstar Matt Doorey to Parra?"
All clubs (except Parra): "Who?"

Do other fans/bulldogs fans watch our games? Has Doorey even cracked 100m in a game before. He’s fucking dogshit and idk how anyone can even give him ‘he has potential’ line to him. He’s awful.

I actually feel sorry for Frothfield. The bigger question is how does he continue to be employed to publish personal agendas. I want to read about league but most of these guys are more suited to womens weekly rather than rugby league.

I'm pretty sure Smith and Meaney were let go before Gus' time too.

After he blew out his ACL he was never the same. Injury gave time for blokes like Topine, Morrin, and to a lesser extent Edwards and Stuckey to surpass Doorey.

With new faces like King in the forward pack, Doorey was always going to struggle for a spot next season.

Doorey might come good. But FFS this is the biggest over exaggeration possible.

Parramatta Eels poach Bulldogs generational forward
By: Buzz Rothfield | Daily Telegraph
View attachment 60839

The long-standing bitter rivalry between the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs and Parramatta Eels has added a new dimension with young generational forward Matt Doorey defecting to his arch-rivals effective immediately.

In what represents a major failure for General Manager of Football Phil Gould, questions are being raised about Canterbury's questionable recruitment and retention commitee. The club has already released the likes of Reimis Smith, Nick Meaney and Matt Doorey who is expected to kick on at a rival club. The 22-year-old is not just another young rampaging forward - he is touted the future of the NSW Blues and Australian forward pack. A leader in his own right - all 16 NRL clubs are understandbly shocked that the Bulldogs would make this decision given how light and poor their forward pack is shaping to be next season.

No doubt incoming coach Cameron Ciraldo will struggle to get this pack firing.

The Bulldogs are left to pick up the pieces and hope that this decision won't come back to haunt them. The club has experienced letting rugby legends leave. Look no further than future immortal Johnathan Thurston - could Doorey be another JT situation?

Time will tell, I think so.

Thank goodness for barrett. Picking up mediocrity.

Good luck to Doorey. Wish him the best. But the guy has been knocked out senseless more than you hope for a 22 year old. He would struggle to get a spot in the 22 let alone the 17. Reminds me a bit of the Santi guy we released to parra. Everyone bagged us. Doubt he even made first grade. Atleast he got a few games for Italy in the WC this year.

Wasn’t Doorey from Parra?
Yes pretty sure he is and he's going back so BIG f..king deal. The c#nt could write the same article about anyone we don't re-sign. Last game of NRL Doorey played for us is 2021 wasn't it he got absolutely smashed. If he's the future of the Aust and NSW forwards in Buzz's mind how the f.. k is this old c#nt Buzz taken seriously about anything he writes.
