Strong team and the bench looks much better, the heaviest bench in the league lolll

 

[afghan4life]

dont know why barba didnt get another shot at fg

 

[Moe]

Bout bloody time they named the side.

Good bench

Agreed. It could break tbh.

Good team. Interesting to have a 4 forward bench. I was expecting Barba

Well I guess you guys have your answer on the 'Morrin V Hickey' thread.

 

[dogs_4 lyf]

Good looking team.. Will improve so much with the return of Stagg. Cant wait to see the boys bounce back this week

 

[iWahash]

Strong bench, should be able to out-muscle the rabbitohs very easily. Also good to see Stagg back

 

[Paulina..]

Looks good! No excuses, we have to perform this week.. the team looks just about right!

 

[Moe]

No Morrin, no DJ yay

 

[rexest]

This forward pack should rip the souths forward pack a new hole, Im sure that our backs are good enough without needing an extra one on the bench.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Now THAT is an impressive lineup (pending no late withdrawls).

That side is as good as it gets, so this is a real test. Hopefuly we can show exactly what the Bulldogs can do playing 100% with full strength.

I have this itching feeling Eastwood, and Gordon (Gordon in particular), are going to really fire up this match, ditto Hickey.

Hickey has his chance to confirm a bench spot for himself.

Gordon will be wanting to show Souths what they got rid of.

Eastwood is slowly getting into shape and form and looking dangerous.

Also Barba is probably not being played due to salary cap constraints (same reason Leano only say a few minutes).

 

[Maza]

Stagg is back thank God!

Team looks good, time to bring the Rabbits back down to earth

 

[TheBearHunter]

I love the pot shots at the heavy guys ... GET IN FRONT OF ONE AND SEE HOW YOU COME OFF .....

 

[zappa]

Good stuff. This is our strongest line-up, and barring injuries, the one that will hopefully take us all the way this season.

 

[B-Train]

We need Stagg out there on Sunday. He's one of our most important players and is the glue of our team.

The bench is very strong this week. Hopefully Hickey makes the most of his opportunity. He generally plays well against Souths. Also look for Buddy to provide great impact against his former team.

 

[Dogzkill4eva]

this is the team i was waiting for

the bench i think is the best for us, with holdsworth out this is whhat i call a team

 

[Doggiez08]

Would have liked Barba on the bench for Hickey but at least this team looks better then last weeks team.

 

[afghan4life]

yea cant see why barba doesnt deserve a shot

 

[LG]

happy with the team, need to bounce back, won't be easy, souths are playing pretty good

 

[ThePedigree]

Also Barba is probably not being played due to salary cap constraints (same reason Leano only say a few minutes).

what do you mean? How would Barba affect our cap?
