    We all know defence wins games, but cant see them winning comp personally, their spine is their weakness. But even that comment depends though on who goes through on the other side of the draw. I suspect they go very deep but if against a Melbourne in a final I don't think the dogs win. If they come up against a Wahs team they beat us.

    A Bulldogs v Warriors final might get a record for lowest scoring in the modern era if it happens. 🙂

      lol, I doubt it, doggies supporters almost filled out a home game at homebush not long ago, I think they had 65k for the good friday game (almost if not sold out) and if there were seats left the many long suffering warriors fans would certainly come out of the closet, including the once a decade band wagoners!

        I think you misread my comment - "point" scoring.

          yeah i did, my bad

          it would be a dire game, they would fail to score tries but might get kicks and if we fluked a try we wouldnt convert!

                    To make guys feel like they're closer to an origin call up than they really are. Mal Meninga used to do it when he'd call up guys like Ben Lowe, Michael Luck etc even though he never had any intention of ever playing them.

                        AOB might not be first to go this year, even if he has lost the team due a clause in his contract. The pay out would cost the club more than they could afford. Having 800k halves in reserve grade doesn't help either

                        Galvin getting closer to the door and moving him on feels like the right thing for both parties

                        Warriors do something that well set up clubs only tend to do with Leka and Laban extending contracts to 2029, well done to them

                          hate this. kid has fucked up a promising season and he's not even that good. Would absolutely love the Tigers to throw him in NSW-cup and just leave him there until the end of next season.

                          Absolutely fuck player managers, it has become far too one-sided in the NRL, and the poor clubs seem to be doing it tougher than ever.

                            yes that part I agree with, unfortunately the way the players responded on social media opened them up to legal threats from Moses, giving them only one real option.

                            It also does appear the recent circus has had an impact on the field as well, even when he was in reserve grade.

                            As much as I loved the Tigers playing hard ball initially, getting rid of him now does seem like the better option. Player managers have so much power its not funny

                              at a time when things like the Adam Selwood situation has happened, pulling that card because you aren't getting what you want is an absolute fluffybunny of a move and one i will never, ever get behind.

                                For a side that prides themselves on defence, an yes, they had some out (like everyone else), the Dogs defence was horrendous last night. They played like they didn't want to get dirty, and most of the tries the Phins scored were through one on one misses or laziness around the ruck.

                                They don't seem to enjoy playing in the wet.

                                  Agreed, I did say best bet of the week was Dolphins at 3.60 h2h with an 11.5 point hd start surely thats gimme money

                                  Does appear though if you play the dogs pray for rain

                                    How the Dolphins in the same half-season can pump the Dogs and the Storm, and lose to both the Tigers and the Knights is a fucking mystery.

                                        Arguably the easiest draw to start against Tigers, Newcastle, Brisbane and Souths and they were 0-4, maybe getting used to new coach and picked up that wonderful human Molo late. Forwards are not the biggest names but doing a pretty good job, only get better once Plath and JMK are back.
