Team List Bulldogs v Warriors - [Round 23, 2025]

[Naynay]

Saw enough last week that I think the change of CHT and Demi in could be enough to push it over, assuming we go out and put the effort in

 

[Cces]

Healy and gannon combo next year might be something to behold

At 1.91m & 101kg I doubt we'll see Gannon playing any dummy half for the first time in his career

 

[The Warrior Waka]

There isn't any creativity in the halves. Dogs will win comfortably unfortunately.

Have you seen the dogs play in the rain? Not that we're any better. But their loses have all been in shitty wet weather. And its forecast for heavy rain. And I'd prefer CHT' over TMM in regards to wet weather footy. Tavita's defense and work ethic is more likely to get us a win than the flashy stuff.

Great these selections will ensure the NSW cup team keeps winning.

Absolutely re CHT defensively and attacking offers more

Especially at stand off. TMM has been invisible the past two years every time he wears 6

Does Bunty not fit jersey 24 or something?

Geez you are a good spotter CCeS!

 

[Beastmode]

All things considered that’s a bloody good team on paper

JFH was originally listed as out for 2-4 weeks. So, he's likely a good chance. If he doesn't pass a fitness test to come in late he should be a good chance for next week. If he does play the main thing is I hope they haven't rushed him back. He will be a big in if he does play.

Good having CHT back. Like all of our halves he has areas that aren't great but overall this year I've liked his work. Think he has been better at 6 than trying to guide the side around the field at 7.

Hopefully, Vaimauga is good to go. There were rumours last week there would be changes. Looking back with hindsight Vaimauga did injure his knee the week before.

Like others I was expecting Egan back. Still keen to see how Healey goes.

Glad to see Irema-Toeava getting another run.

 

[El Chuckie]

Cam george should give him a ticket to fiji and get the treatment that Naholo had in 2015

kava cures all

 

[Playdaball]

Should swap CHT and TMM

 

[Dannevegas]

Considering all the injuries it’s not a bad side. A few tinkerings and I think we can hang on to the top 4.
a prop rotation of Fish, Demi, Ford and Ale or Afoa. Fatiofa in the centres, still not sold on Boyd either.

 

[John Nick]

Should swap CHT and TMM

Never

 

[Noitall]

Should swap CHT and TMM

Thankfully both play pretty direct. Probably won’t change the halves during the game but CHT could spell Healey at dummy half and TMM shift to five eighth. TMM likely spell Healey though. He’ll be keen to take it bulldogs after he copped one in the head last year and it went unnoticed

I love Healey's confidence, there's something about him. Wanna see Egan back as soon as possible, but so pleased for Healey that he gets another go in the weekend.

Adam Gee listed as ref for saturday

Aside from 24 and 19 (Mad Butchers number) I see we are also missing 20 and they are missing 18.

 

[wizard of Tauranga]

Happy to see Tuaupiki locked in at the back and CNK as centre going forward.

Was worried Webby would move CNK back to the back as I actually think he’s better suited their in poor weather, with Tuaupiki better in the dry.

Looks like CNK is our long term centre? Or if Berry comes back we shift everyone around again?

There goes that then...ffs
