I hope most of it is not true, we need a strong bulldogs team to dislike as it makes for a healthier NRL.

I reckon most football fans would love to see the Morris twins playing together again........and obviously for me the RED V is the logical place.

lets all hate manly instead

Plenty of sources very close to the Bulldogs on 'The Kennel' forum and nobody has mentioned any of this other than the Tolman and Pritchard stuff. Hoping the rest is simply a case of: Last years grand finalists are performing well below expectations so lets sink the boot in and make up as much crap as possible.

Really, really hope that's the case anyway

Cummins played his first game of the season on the weekend, ofcourse he is not ready, he has zero match fitness, he needs about 2-4 weeks to get some sort of match fitness, especially playing fullback which involves a heap of running...

Doggies family remember do NOT shoot the messenger BUT according to rumours the Castle of Belmore is CRUMBLING with talks of Barba wanting to tear up his contract & join the Broncos, possibly losing the likes of Tolman & Pritchard, Reynolds going to the Panthers BUT the latest coming through with REALLY loud whispers is Josh "J-Moz" Morris approached the Board asking for an immediate release to rejoin the Dragons to play alongside his brother. As ALWAYS we are hopeful that these are TRULY nothing BUT rumours but it is our job to bring you EVERYTHING Bulldogs related & unfortunately that includes rumours

I no it's all just rumours but hearing the bulldogs club is in meltdown and the possibility of Josh Morris returning home has made my day thanks AyiosYiorgos with the hot news...

Evander Cummins on facebook last night said:"I am a very tolerant person but I cannot express my hate enough for wollongong it is seriously the most boring/worst place on earth!
Take me back to Sydney city lights"

He should move to Kogarah

After the Beale injury on the weekend coaches were saying he's not ready to step up to first grade yet so maybe that has triggered a dummy spit.

Just looked at the facebook - Josh Drinkwater has commented "Amen bruthhhaa".

When will these young guys learn???

Poor young blokes. Dragged away from the Sydney city lights all the way down to Wollongong. A whole 1 hour drive away. And all for the opportunity of a lifetime to try and make it in the NRL. I feel sorry for them...End sarcasm. Dugaan, Barba, these two under 20 nobodies, Ive had enough.

I have a new policy for what I call the w***er Syndrome. They all get to work as a brickies labourer or get to go dig holes, on labourers pay for a month and see how much they like that. Im sure they will be running back to boring old Wollongong or Canberra rooftops or wherever else in no time. After all im sure the majority of these blokes would be lucky if they got a start as a labourer if they didn't have football, with the amount of intelligence some seem to show.

I hate seeing this talent go to waste. The problem is I think these days these guys dont know what a hard days work is. Everything is thrown at them from cash to girls and whatever. It's all to easy. Some can handle it and seem to stay out of trouble and respect what they have, but a lot cant.

Amen bruuuuuthas

Nice rant brutha it sums it up pretty well to me.

Apparantly the Storm do send all new players to the club out as a blue collar worker for a while so as they can appreciate what it is they have.

AyiosYiorgos · Apr 11, 2013

Talented young back-rower Sitaleki Akauola has written a personal blog about his Club and NRL debut on Monday night.

A member of the 2012 premiership winning NYC side and having been in good form the the Club's NSW Cup team, Akauola became the 160th player to appear in first grade for Wests Tigers when he lined up against premiers Melbourne Storm at AAMI Park.

Originally named 18th man, Akauola came off the interchange bench following the withdrawal of Liam Fulton through injury. Here is his story:

MY NRL EXPERIENCE
When I got the call up to just train with the Wests Tigers NRL squad for the week, I was very excited. Just to be told I was 18th man was the best feeling. It was at our final team run last Sunday morning when Mick Potter named the side and said Liam Fulton wouldn’t be playing. Mick told the group I would be making my NRL debut and everyone just clapped and congratulated me. I was so overwhelmed. I went blank.
Flying down to Melbourne with the NRL team was just amazing. I couldn’t sleep Sunday night. My room-mate was James Tedesco. I don’t remember much of the bus ride from our team hotel to the ground. I was too busy looking around the bus seeing the calibre of players I was with.

It was the same feeling when I was changing in the dressing rooms. I couldn’t believe I was here. I told myself this isn’t real. Going out for the warm up was a surreal feeling. I tried to block out the noise and the crowd. It was a really good feeling.
The game starts and I’m on the bench, not knowing when I am going to go on. I run up and down the sidelines at different times with the other interchange players to keep warm and stretching. Just looking at the field was unreal. I was so happy.
Sitting on the sidelines, the speed of the game didn’t look real fast but it was a different story when I went on to the field with 20 minutes remaining. I think it was 12-all and I made my first tackle I think on Jesse Bromwich. Even then, I was thinking this is unreal. The adrenalin was pumping.

I wanted to get my first hit up over and done with. I didn’t want to look anywhere but their props to run at. So I ran at them. It was good to get smashed and get all the nerves out. I was so happy. I think my team-mates were expecting to me to offload but I was never going too even if it was on.

When full-time came around, to shake three of the best players’ hands in the world in Billy Slater, Cooper Cronk and Cameron Smith was just unreal. It was the best feeling. I got to shake hands with one of my best mates in Kenny Bromwich who also made his NRL debut that night. We grew up together in Manurewa so it was a special moment. He was the one who convinced me to switch to rugby league.

In the dressing rooms, we were upset about the loss but I took plenty out of it. The experience was unbelievable. I enjoyed the bus ride more this time.

The boys were fantastic to me during the whole week. Now I’ve had a taste of NRL, I want more of it.

The only way I can do that is to keeping working on my game, my weaknesses, and my fitness. I know it can be done
