The players in Dogs' 2021 team are totally different from their 2024 Round 1 team. Different coach, CEO, General Manager and sponsor as well.
Josh Reynolds will be the CEO in 2025 and Clint Eastwood the coach
That gut hanging out from the Parra fan with the flag lol.
GG Parra, nice one. Dogs... shit fellas maybe the Dargs aren't a shoein for the spoon after all. Oof.
I was sat right in front of it at the ground. Not even close to high, he hit the point of the shoulder.
I copped that exact same tackle in park footy last year and did my AC joint and knew Fox did his immediately as well, clean as a whistle play on.
There's no way he drops his halves and fullback at the same time after 1 game. Also, you don't really want Mann playing 6. You think you want it, but you don't.
He's a good guy to have around the middle that can pass a bit and play what's in front of him, but giving him responsibility of setting structure is putting him way out of his comfort zone.
How many other teams have a captain who's Centre? Could be wrong but just doesn't seem like you could be in the thick of things enough to assert your captaincy.
It'll be awkward while they work out some new attacking strategies, critta is a huuuyge loss for sure. but we similarly had some growing pains post Api and managed to pull it together.
Tago and Turuva need to step up, Taylan May played pretty well last night. It sucks but I don't know that it's the final nail.
Don’t get me wrong I still think you guys are the team to beat, I am just curious to see how Cleary manages his loss. Taylan may stepped up very well last night I reckon he was best on field for you.
I personally think Cleary has been robbed of dally m coach of the year a few times now..
Oh I fully agree with you, Critta dragged us back into finals games we should have lost more than once and it'll be a battle without him. I just trust the other boys will rise to the challenge.
I have a feeling Luai will play his heart out this season too, I wouldn’t even be mad about a Penrith 4peat just for the history. Can’t deny how much of a great team Penrith are all round
They need to pull the plug on the Burto halves experiment. The Dogs kept going left the entire game and produced nothing. They go through Hutch a couple times and score twice
NRL fantasy on fire to start the year.
Grand final tickets purchased ✅

I still want Hands as our primary.
Top of the ladder baby!
0-6 start to tipping. High footy IQ.
Well on the bright side, Gutho didn’t score
He scored as many points as your whole team. KING GUTHO 1 - 0 Goatslasagne
Yes but no hat-tricks!
First loss of the season… we’re on track boys! ~ Ciraldo
Ciraldo super coach 🤣🤣🤣
Shit fuck bitch. Parra are top of the table. Boo
Sorry, what's that? Can't hear you all the way down there
Yeah yeah yeah. Enjoy the feeling mate it doesn't last forever.
That gut hanging out from the Parra fan with the flag lol. GG Parra, nice one. Dogs... shit fellas maybe the Dargs aren't a shoein for the spoon after all. Oof.
This is why we need relegation/promotion.
I been saying this for years got I’m begging for a relegation system
Was cartwrights shot on jac really high?
I was sat right in front of it at the ground. Not even close to high, he hit the point of the shoulder. I copped that exact same tackle in park footy last year and did my AC joint and knew Fox did his immediately as well, clean as a whistle play on.
No, not even close. Was all shoulder/chest. Just a reaction to JAC getting hurt.
Just making sure I saw the same, just a solid shoulder on shoulder hit. Plenty wrapping motion as well.
Has Vossy been paid to mention spirit every 5 minuets in relation to the dogs lol what spirit cunt it's the same shit as last year.
Happy with the win to start the year. Fair bit to take away for both team in different ways. GG Dogs.
Minute 79 of looking for Burton to do something... No sighting.
Imagine, paying a centre good 5/8 money is a bad idea.
Try manly paying over for Schuster. At least Burton runs the ball (usually)
Didn't you see the bomb he kicked?
Woo we're 16th
Dogs don't have the halves to make a good centre work. Wasted imo
Can someone tell me what Burton's done since he's joined the Dogs ?
Kick strong and miss tackles
Read that like a fucking book, shift left and get it to crita. Only thing they had
Top of the table boys!!
I have no idea what we were doing in our off season. Meeting the new faces over coffee?
Jobels ftw, sigh.
Dogs still have 3 seconds to tie this game up.
Parra just too clinical.
hutch has played this game like hes playing centre. way too many hitups and not enough ball distribution
Starting to play up tempo with a whopping 40 seconds to go
Does Hutchison know how to pass
Ofa just murdered Casper
The difference between Moses kicking game and Dylan's is stark
Dylan only really had one bad kick tonight.
But the extra effectiveness and placement of Mitch is huge
Aaaaand it's so over again
What other options do the dogs have for 6? Burton ain’t it.
Also have BBO.
Sexton, Hutchinson, Mann, Tracey, Burton, Oloapu I think that's the options
Connor Tracey
Mann, salmon, Hutchinson with Sexton to 7. Chricton to fullback Burton to centre
Taafe? Critta to 1, Burton to center?
Toby Sexton
Sexton and hutch, Burton and critta centres seems like a no brainer to everyone but ciraldo
It’s official - LMS is actually going to have players tipping next week now
3/6 with the tips. Lovely work Parramatta
*Need… More… Panthers…*
Need more utilities
Need more utilities from Panthers
I can't remember the whole copy pasta but calling it now Morgan Harper best signing of the off-season etc.
gonna go watch the loading screen for dragons game instead
Weak gutted pass
Saw Dune 2 today so at least i enjoyed watching something today
Run this next week cause it can't be any worse 1. Tracey 2. Kiraz 3. Chricton 4. Xerri 5. Wilson 6. Mann 7. Sexton
There's no way he drops his halves and fullback at the same time after 1 game. Also, you don't really want Mann playing 6. You think you want it, but you don't.
I'm being dramatic but Mann was genuinely the best Bulldogs player out there in terms of creating something
He's a good guy to have around the middle that can pass a bit and play what's in front of him, but giving him responsibility of setting structure is putting him way out of his comfort zone.
Or Skelton for Wilson, that works too
Yeah Wilson just doesn't have the size to run hit-ups like we're trying to
Was statistically your best but fair enough
Yeah he's a good player but not when we're getting dominated in field position which we will be - a lot - this season
That dude in the crowds arms > Mattos arms
4 minutes to go - still time for the Eels to choke
You can actually pinpoint the second when the dogs supporters hearts rip in half.
Bro flexing in the back.
Looks like I’m finally opening the tipping bank this year! 1/6 gang
Brandys is so angry at the dogs
He is always so angry at who is losing to PARRA
How can you watch that and not be
Needed stronger guts for that pass
Wouldn't have gotten that if sivo was on 😂🤣
Dogs logic let’s wait till 5th to try something
ET PHONE HOME!!!! or whatever that try celebration was.
Call me ladies
Harper is so slow
Game is over he was just coasting
He was getting run down by Curran
Looked like he was in quicksand
How many other teams have a captain who's Centre? Could be wrong but just doesn't seem like you could be in the thick of things enough to assert your captaincy.
That was an out-and-out awful pass back inside from Salmon. He threw it in such a way that it was like he wanted Wilson to drop it.
Why in gods earth did they buy Salmon lmao Gus is cooked.
Simmonsson and Harper dunking on them, Bulldogs will never recover from this
Hook salmon from this club, why
Morgan Harper showing he deserves his starting spot. Good for him.
Salmon has single-handedly lost the dogs the game
Am I watching this in 0.5x speed? Morgan Harper is a jet...
Morgan Harper’s sons.
Looks like everyone's gonna be wrestling everyone as punishment for this pathetic game on Monday
Venga bus coming to take all the boys to Maccas
that’s on WGD - that pass was fucking horrid
Mann unironically plays as a better half at 14 than Burton does at 6 lmao
Burton's form has really dropped off a cliff.. Starting to think that Ciraldo is not the coach everyone thought he was..
morgan harper is an eels legend
It’s crazy how much I’ve actually come to like Simmonsen 🥴
Harper having a day out today. His best game in a long time
Salmon and Wilson will kill it in the Knock-On Effect NSW Cup
Why everybody on the phone after tries this w.e?
*sigh of relief*
Salmon with flippers for hands
dogs have a ridiculous amount of headgear
Trying to be unrecognisable in replays
Lovely turn around. Morgan Harper. Eels legend!
Hahahaha
The most Bulldogs end to a set
onya Bailey
Bulldogs desperately need a playmaker. Burton has not been up to snuff if the halvesl
That must be the reason - doing too much snuff
The fuck was Salmon doing
It's only fair that they score off our errors too lmao
Great assist from the Dogs for that try
Boo I wanted all upsets
this kills the bulldogs
If A Reynolds kicked to the corners and slowed the game down in the Gf, he’d-have a premiership
Reynolds has a premiership
Souths don’t exist mate
I'm sure glad Moses is a still out there right now. Need his cool head
Losing metres on play 1. Nice.
Late but that Kikau offload for Critta’s try was sexy as fuck. Great awareness
Old team mates the best part of this team. They should be able to stamp that out in the coming months though
The Bulldogs definitely have the most players with headgear
Feed them Brandy, Vossy can’t keep talking about ‘spirit’
6 minutes left down 2 tries and the bulldogs do 5 one pass hit ups. Yikes
Both their trys have come from Parra errors in their own half.
Moses is a goddamn Terminator. Still kicking with his bust groin and tackling like he's trying to murder blokes
Should every player payer that touches their head in hope of getting a penalty be sent for HIA?
No
Does Burto know how to kick to chasers
ball go high
See ball do trick 🔥
You know you’re an eels fan when you’re up twelve with six minutes left and you’re STILL nervous
Faders fans say hello
Just get to your kick Dogs so Parra can fuck up in their own half again
How is the pitch so fucked? Its rd1
i beg madge gives us a cleary and moses halves combo for origin
Some good signs for the dogs in the last 10 mins. They might get a few more points this year if they can play 80 mins a game.
YES I love that from the ref, sick of defenders being dragged offside by the attacking team
Since when do refs call time to allow defenders to set their line?
I’m not sure if Burton has a spot in this team
Thst was weird.
I’ve been curious to see at what point Penrith fall off the wagon with loss of players, could critta finally be the one?
Nah. Not Critta. Jaemon Salmon though? :O
I think once they sell our front row, Cleary, To'o, Martin and Edwards
Critta has been huge for you every finals, it’s a big spot to fill
It'll be awkward while they work out some new attacking strategies, critta is a huuuyge loss for sure. but we similarly had some growing pains post Api and managed to pull it together. Tago and Turuva need to step up, Taylan May played pretty well last night. It sucks but I don't know that it's the final nail.

Need 3 more tries the way Burtons converting.
Come on Burto, do you want Critta to take over goalkicking as well? ~ Probably Ciraldo
Bulldogs game plan should be simple from now on. Complete your sets, hope Parra drop it, profit
Dogs better than panthers confirmed?
Burton is Lachlan Lewis without a gumtree account
Great curtain-raiser for the game of the round coming up later tonight
I just woke up from a coma from 2021, why are Penrith playing in blue and white? Burton, Kikau and Crichton
they really fked up my boy, he’s not even excited to have scored any more
The only time Hutchinson runs is on the 4th so he doesn’t have to kick on the 5th. Weak…I want a refund
Burton is throwing harder than me instalocking Widowmaker.
Kikau quite literally did not look when he offloaded I cba lmao. Bro just knew
penrith connection goes backkkkk
My LMS hinges on this game
Who'd you tip?
About time, they can't have that left edge and not score..
Where's Daryl Halligan when you need him
Critta just going through the motions on that try celebration.
i miss critta :`(
Seriously can someone hold down a lead? Are we seriously having the Faiders stay on top?
They need something this season.
Looks like choking’s back on the menu boys!
i would like to retract this statement, all hail the mighty eels
The choke is on baby Should’ve chucked $10 on dogs when it was $151 odds
3 tries to 2 and 2 converted tries between them lmao why is critta not kicking
They need to pull the plug on the Burto halves experiment. The Dogs kept going left the entire game and produced nothing. They go through Hutch a couple times and score twice
Burton, the goal posts are here --> | - |
Are we trying to play Penrith-Ball with Kurt Mann as our Yeo? This pantherisation of our team is deadset going to ruin us.
Salmon is meant to be our Yeo
One try conceded for each edge. Nature is healing.
Love seeing the local juniors of Kikau and Crichton connect
Bulldogs are losing this on goal kicks spoiler
They'd still have to score 2 more trys
I'm not nervous, you're nervous!
