+x+x+xJust finished watching Braith Anastas top 5 rivalry games between the Bulldogs and Roosters on Fox. My son was asking why I was tearing up at the end of the 2004 GF game...... I tear up when I feel pride I told him. Asking on behalf of Dman.... Dr Marki, we’re you tearing up because the Dogs won or was it due to the Roosters losing the 2004 GF? I cant describe the relief, joy, satisfaction of that night..... I think I was hugging strangers as we left the stadium. Some of those Roosters fans didn't appreciate the hug. The guys that did ......

Someone’s posted a picture of the entire Dogs team with a fan/sponsor.... towards the far right of the pic, it’s MWZ, brother of Dallin in full dogs gear
We are really short of outside backs, especially with speed/x-factor..... MWZ is really not an improvement on what we have or have just recently let go IMO
Maybe it’s just a reggies/depth signing, it’ll be a shame if he takes up a top 30 spot

What was his Greek mother thinking? I went to uni with some Greek guys, Malaka is more or less their entire vocabulary, it was an essential part of any conversation.

Hope he doesn’t take a top 30 spot.

We have scope to get somone early for 21, I hope we do, but regardless 21 should be good and 22 better.
The worst should be over, I don't want to see the club a mess like that ever again.
Des and Cleal, the stuff of nightmares...

Love the FOX. Now if we can sign a hooker and another prop we could challenge for a premiership.

The signing of JAC means a lot more than just the signing of JAC. It means we can attract the games elite talent at a fair price.
And we haven’t been able to do that since...................

+xLove the FOX. Now if we can sign a hooker and another prop we could challenge for a premiership. Agree 100%, especially with Burton and all of the other signings on deck. We could also develop a young player sign a qld cup or nsw cup player or a pom. The chances of us finding some undiscovered hooker are remote, but it is worth looking. For a prop the chances of finding an undiscovered player who can do the job are higher. Some props go nowhere for some part of their career, then the right opportunity in the right environment let's them reach their peak potential later in their career.

Since ... hmmmm .... Although attracting the Ogre, the general Anasta and Mautia from Souths was a pass mark, but they were not quite in the class of the Fox. Other than that mid-1990s. No surprise attacting and retaining the right talent brings results... The talent we let go 2005-2017 is another nightmare, when we win the next premership, I am going drinking with Dman until I permanently erase all memory of 2005-2017. That is if the brain cells don't beat me to it.

Well done to Barrett and the club. I disagree with him having his best football ahead of him and think his best is now or last couple of years. This year already he changed the way he plays slightly as he isnt as fast as he was in the past. But you cant complain when you sign a genuine sprinter, a guy who can score length of field tries for you. Im excited!

+xLove the FOX. Now if we can sign a hooker and another prop we could challenge for a premiership. Even though Starling re-signed with the Raiders.....we should make a silent play for him. He recently got into trouble at Central Coast so if the Raiders and NRL discipline him, he can agitate his way out of contract. As we can then swoop!

You are kidding?.... or misinformed. Melbourne claimed only today, hours before The Dogs announced him, that he was the fastest man in League. You can argue with them where they got the data from, but if he’s not who’s quicker? And he won’t slow down too much till his 30’s, and be a better footballer. All the best, all in front of him.

Heard Roger Fabris on radio SEN a couple of weeks ago state JAC fastest in the game over both 40 and 100... so fastest overall... He added Xerri would give him a run for his money over 100 and surprisingly Dave Warner over 40... The current players in NV’L list over 100 from memory was JAC, daylight, Jet...

Some props go nowhere for some part of their career, then the right opportunity in the right environment let's them reach their peak potential later in their career. Spencer Leinu is a good chance to be that prop going off the rumours. The cheese could be the hooker but I doubt we can afford the price tag.
Maybe Wakeham can develop into a hooker. There is talk he could start there, Katoa and JMK are average options as well. I really hope we can develop a hooker from what we got. We will know by the end of next year then we can go into the market again.
I really think Avo can be the fullback we have been waiting for since Barba.
It’s great to be signing talent finally. So if we can’t develop certain players we can go into the market an not pay overs
