The Bulldogs' return to form is set to be short-lived with star second-rower Sonny Bill Williams set to miss at least a month with a knee injury.

The above quartet adds to an already extensive injury list that already included Willie Tonga (shoulder), Luke Patten (back), Kane Cleal (hip) and Justin Tsoulos (shoulder).

Interesting to see the building injury list they have. Folkes looks to have some issues with players with Holdsworth apparently also in doubt! Karma for all those signings they've made! [icon_evillaugh

Yeah Sonny... You're worth more than the $550k you are on now.. :roll:

Too bad we don't play the Dogs until after SoO3...

 

[Kan Huang]

Was actually thinking the same thing Alec.. We don't usually have to wait this long to take on the Dogs!

Pity, he was getting in some good form and was good to watch

I agree QLD'er, the game on Monday night was probably one of the best I've seen him play. He was starting to be a lot more selective with his offloads and his running game was really starting to punish teams.

We have to play them twice in the last 7 or 8 rounds, its quite ridiculous really.

Dogs will miss Sonny, no doubt about it.

I guess it will give them an indication of what it will be like if he decides to be hypocritical and walk out on them [icon_lol1. [icon_lol1.

5yr deal pffft who needs $2m over 5yrs when rugby are probably offering nearly a million a year [icon_lol1.

I wont be surprised at all if he goes.

Dogs are really going to suffer without him. Whens the last time a second rower had this much impact on a team..?

Good to see Sonny playing his natural position, seatwarmer.

They might as well put the under 20's on against the Storm this week with all the injuries.

Been a damn long while mate. Sure, guys like Tallis etc. really inspired the team, but I can't really remember one recently with the ability to start that X-factor play alone. Massive loss for the Dogs.

Doggies are a bargain at -13.5, worst margin ever. Storm have only been doing enough to win matches this year except the big ones against us and manly where they stepped it up a gear. They will be too good but the dogs are really having a go of late and even without SBW will be able to keep this reasonably tight.

He was well overdue for his injury run to start.
