Channel 9 report Felize Kafusi signed for another two seasons with Dolphins

Ever reliable Zero Tackle reckon Bulldogs would be open to letting Matt Burton go a year early, so he can sign with Perth in 2027.

These maggots are brutal hey. That would be 3/4 of the spine that helps them play so well this year.

It's all good. Gus has the 20 best teenagers he's ever seen lining up to fill those spots.

I think this is an area where the warriors have excelled under Cappy's supervision. Player identification and develooment under goid coaching is resulting in pathways success far quicker than I expected.

They don't call him the Donald Trump of the NRL for nothing.
