Wasn't there a rumour a few weeks back, saying Folau will sign for Dogs & Barba to Broncos? Well it's going around now, Izzy is set to sign woth the Dogs.. Didn't also someone say expect a signing before round 13?

Close to announcing a couple of re-signings.

cool. Hopefully Kahu is one of our re-signings. Plenty of our young forwards are off contract so any number of them could also be re-signed.

I heard the whole Folau to Dogs and Barba to Broncos "Rumour", any source on Folau set to sign with Dogs?

If the Folau signing is true surely the Bulldogs have to release a player or 2. We all know Folau won't come cheaply. He will probably be the dogs highest paid player.

Phil Rothfield - Twitter

Possible link or at least a copy and paste of the tweet? Couldn't find anything on his Twitter relating to the Dogs or Folau.

My bad, my source was the LU twitter feed which reported that Rothfield announced the rumour on the Continuous Call Team

Don't know how to link to twitter.

Thanks!

I think that'll be great news if he does.

1) We get him for Queensland / Australia
2) They might let Barba / other good players go, which we might (probably won't, knowing our admin) sign.

I know I can be very lenient on our admin etc. But I swear to god, if barba is shopped around or released and we don't sign him, or at least do all we can to try and sign him I will lose my fucking shit.

If hook even does one of his cliched "we are aware Ben is now available, but we are happy with what whether got" I'll dead set camp outside red hill with a Sack Griffin sign

Watching Keary tonight he looks ok. hard to really tell much about him though. He has defended well though and looks very confident and assured.

If we went after the Canberra bogan, I cannot imagine we wouldn't chase Barba hard...

Well the Bulldogs have to shed someone good, surely. I actually can't see why they'd sign Folau if they'd have to get rid of Barba, that just wouldn't make sense.

Knowing our luck, they will probably shed like 4 or 5 of their junior/inexperienced players - players like Tapau, Mitch Brown, Low, Lafai etc

Because Barba isn't popular with some players.

Don't believe the Dogs when they say the story about Barba not being on the outer is a load of shit.
