News The Dogs have completed a drastic two-year rebuild. Here’s how they could look in 2022

[D- voice]

T. Katoa in there? That shows how much they know.

I stopped reading when Tui Katoa made the round 1 team

Handy back up. But if he is our starting winger next year then may god have mercy on our souls

After the last 5 years as bulldogs fans and 16 months as humans surely we start the season with someone better then Katoa at 5

Who cares...That's just their opinion !
Haven't we had enough pessimism ???

 

[Longtimedog]

Gus needs to get rid of Allan, Flanagan and Stimpson any way he can. We still have Jacko, Thompson and Cotric on overs. I’m sure there will be some unpopular decisions with the roster before kick off in 2022.

Hope he can get rid of waddell too. How that dude keeps on coming back. It seems anyone that breached the covid protocols are getting rewarded with a larger roll in the team

You have to feel for Atoni, Topine, Ogden etc when Doorey and Waddell keep on getting games ahead of you.

It’ll be Okunbur

Id rather Allan or Schooup. Cotric on the wing. With Okunbor and Katoa as the back up.

Kudos thus far . But still need more experience in the spine. I. E hooker and halve

Ogden has talent and should be re signed. He just needs a bit of work put into him but he can certainly put a dent in the defensive line.

 

[Bulldogs fan]

We need to find a better 9 than what we have. Brandon Smith ain't coming. Hopefully Gould has spotted someone. We would be a very decent side but with JMK as the main 9 it's not good. I'd love to see BBO take the step up but it's massive pressure on a kid who has only played a few games.

I would like to see us spot some talent for once so it takes pressure off the salary cap

Not convinced about Averillo as starting half back. I think BBO should be given a chance. He has real potential. FFS Barrett needs to put him in the number 7 jersey for the rest of the year.

 

[Utility]

That is a strong team, top 8 here we come.

Not if Avo plays 6. Burton is a 6....Avo's a NSW cupper.

 

[maroondog72]

lol at this cahunt, no mention of our two best players Baily and schoupp, in the current squad

 

[BULLDVGS]

do you keep power of cotric and schoupp, pace of naden and jac together. Or do you split them up with naden and cotric, schoupp and jac?

That’s a really good question, I’m going jac and schoupp and naden and cotric

Agreed. So far Averillo has been hype and he deserves his shot but also needs to be allowed to go back to lower grades to continue learning his craft.

 

[Dogmonster]

And I wouldn't say completed the 2 year rebuild for 2022 yet either.

 

[berries1935]

What ever the final line up is, it’s going to be strong and we will have decent depth of needed.
I just hope Barrett finds his 13 early and sticks strong to build combinations etc so many new players won’t click straight away.... ps I’m buying a bulldogs back to back premiership shirt for 23/24

I think he has talent....the problem is he's a running half....he's like Burton lite with a few less strings to his bow. He has talent, but I'm still not sure what his best position is. I'd still love us to take a punt on Benji for 12 months, tbh.... a senior half would be invaluable and he could teach our other young halves a thing or two. I also think Okunbor can pressure Cotric for a wing spot if he sorts his handling issues out. Loads of potential there.
