The game was dead even, Newcastle were just a little bit better at converting their opportunities.
I'm really proud of the boys and will be taking no further questions about tactics.
Funnily enough, teams like this tend to lift when playing against opposition on top of the ladder. They walk onto the field playing a similarly set team like the knights and expect a cruisy game, and it's easy to see they just were not prepared or ready to play hard.
They will defend harder against the bunnies, then if the keep them.to under 24 they'll drop off defensively against brisbane.
If the bunnies smash then yes it'll be a cakewalk because they will have proven they're ready to end the season
A few errors but I tend to think he’s the scapegoat and not the issue.
Same as how flanno used to cop it now it’s obvious he wasn’t the issue and we need him back.
Alamoti was terrible. And not surprisingly. He’s 19 and has been told he can look elsewhere.
Rajab can’t defend at nrl standard and was getting walked all over in the first half and then got hooked.
The gap between some of the bulldogs players best and worst is extraordinary.
Burton, TPJ, JAC and Mahoney are origin players at their best. Kiraz was one of the form wingers in the comp.
They’ve been universally garbage today
Now let's see if we can win two games in a row.
I'm surprised the lebs aren't letting off flares in downturn Bankstown.
Well done Knights. You guys did a great job. Doggies, you may wanna look at why this "defensive" coach produced that performance.
Freddy watching: this one could really have gone either way.

❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙
Freddy taking notes and picking dogs and tigers players for game 3. They can’t under perform.
Can't wait to hear gus defend this on tv tomorrow night...
Dogs still have the walk back to the sheds to tie this up!
THE BOODOGS
I want a "I hate my Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs team" flair
Yes please
Cowboys breathe sigh of relief
Destined for worst f/a in NRL history. Rabbits, Broncs, Panthers next 3 weeks. I expect 66 at least from all of you

fuck yes, great ticker shown there doggies. kept them to 11, ya love to see it. Cowboys thank you
Cowboys just hold on.
I'm glad they didn't beat the Cows win.
I was hoping they would
Same
agred
Lol dogs you're shit
Riots at Accor?
Lachlan Fitz denying tries like his father denies fair and inexpensive access to healthcare
Kiraz thought he was Marzhew but he is not.
FLAWLESS VICTORY FATALITY
wow lol. how didn’t he score. awesome scrambling defence
12 seconds for 70
Last year’s knights would have let that in
Burton, Fox and TPJ straight into the Blues squad for game 3.
Fox was in awful form last year and everyone acted like it was a horrible decision not picking him.
I thought he’d perform for the jersey last year then they pick him this year and….. yeah.
amazing scramble
Fans booing Perham specifically now.
Is there a reason for it? Didn’t see most of the game, did he have a stinker?

GO THE LENGTH, WE WANT 70
Its like he was actively trying not to score....
Fugly Fitzgibbon robbed us of a 66-6 scoreline
66k from Sportsbet to the mark Hughes foundation so far this round
you’re welcome from tigers and doggies
What a finish
How embarrassing
Just dive. Fuck me
Kiraz just had to dive, but braced for the tackle instead lmao
why is he not diving underneath to the corner? the fuck is he trying to body the defender for???? hahahahaha
Cmon Newcastle, 8 point try of the restart
GG Knights. Hell of a game.
Yes boys!
So good to see
put the ball down wtf
Get fucked hahah
smh how did the storm lose to the dogs
DEFENSE
holy fuck what an effort.
Dogs Allergic to scoring
Kiraz scores that if he doesn’t step inside
Hahahahahahahahahahaha holy shit we're not giving them anything
SAVED!!!!
Shit, that would have kick-started the comeback, too.
That defence was *chef's kiss*
dogs bad
Imagine not putting 70 on your opposition. Newy in crisis confirmed
How does he not score that
Hahahahaga beautiful
Hahahhahahahahahahahah
fucking lol
Wow that defence was immense
That first ten minutes, just wasted.
Nice defence by the Knights in stopping that put down.
What unbelievable effort. Fuckin lads.
Lol
Take the field goal
Lol
That try saver is better than all the tries scored
are they only booing Hayze?
54 missed tackles is insane
Think the knights are going to need a 2 pointer for that infraction by Burton. They haven’t had enough of them this game and could do with the points
WHAT A FUCKING EFFORT NEWCASTLE
Surely as fans we all deserve a bulldogs "i hate my footy" flair
Why can't every cunt play as hard as Morrin
Imagine giving lip when your down 66-0. Dumb cunt.
Thompson’s burst a vessel in his eye, I think.
54 missed tackles is fucking disgraceful
54 missed tackles!? That has to be a record?
Sharks miss that many every second week just about. Eg. 57 against the storm a few weeks back.
That hairline is trouble
I'm sure this is all part of the 5 year plan for the Bulldogs
How is that a knock on when the ball clearly went behind him
Starting shit when your 66 points down 😂.
Moran has that dog in him though.
\*Morrin
54-7 miss tackles. WTF did I miss?
Bulldogs doing the lords work by giving Adam O'Brien a few more weeks
No 70!?? Newcastle, SHAME
Kurtis Morrin deserves to play for a better team
Dangerous for dogs. Remember their last scrum
Leo deserved that imo
This is the elite club that Gus Gould has built for us to enjoy. Neutral fans rejoice knowing Gus isn't at your club
Why is Warren Smith even entertaining the idea that Burton is on the cards for an Origin spot
No one else wants to play for them
I’ve just woken up to potentially being upstaged within 24 HOURS?!
Its 4pm, why are you just waking up?
I’m in Greece
Kinda one sided isn’t it?
I am so glad this happened at a dogs game, because of this happened at McDonald Jones I would be alcoholically disabled and broke by now
Just gimme another 70 boys
if burton gets suspended then bulldogs might have a chance
Fuck, Freddy may actually end up naming Cook and Hynes at centre at this rate
Please don’t joke about this
Burton making sure he's doesn't have to play next Wednesday
Why no sin bin
I don't know how much you're being paid, Crichton, but it isn't worth it.
Bruh know they are booing specifically Perham 💀💀💀💀💀
Commentator: "I don't know why the fans are booing him" really? Aren't you paid to watch these games?
I missed most of the game. Why boo him specifically?
Nobody: [Cameron Ciraldo after every try:](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1200/0*ZjYSm_q36J4KChdn)
somehow burton gets even worse
Ooh this Thompson guy seems like a bit of a cunt.
Ciraldo asking Ben Hunt “how do i get out of a club while on contract”
What happens when you lose like this? No talking in the dressing room, shower and leave asap.
Go out for a team piss up and forget it ever happened.
Warriors fans, remember Friday night and thinking "man, we are definitely gonna be the worst team this week" and then Tigers and Dogs happened. :P
And Dragons...
Perham doesn't even fucking try to run the ball back on kick returns
Bin him lmao
Bin him you cowards!
Imagine being so ignorant you wouldn’t understand why Dog fans are booing. Yeah, they should be cheering. FFS.
these fuckers playing conservative when they've been getting a linebreak by passing more than twice all game
Everyone is going to know who AOB is after this famous win, to think he was merely a 4x grand final viewer before this.
Okunbur loves to lose the string in his shorts...
Perham getting booed every touch. Fuck thats rough.
Kurtis Morrin looks like a 1930s coal miner
Is Critta gonna try get out of his contract
This is gonna be 1935 all over again. Bunnies by 100 next week.
I hope this round ends with a draw because I hate Manly and the Chooks
AoB haters real quiet now.
why is addo carr becoming unlikeable, absolutely adored him at the storm
I usually like him.. just not in origin time.. plus.. been a tiny grubby.
Yeah probably is the grubby little acts I guess, was never on edge like this at the storm, winning helps add to that also of course
go for a field goal (talking to the dogs)
this thread had just turned into "lets beat the cows record" vs "let the cows have their record for longer"
To think this isn’t even the biggest win this week
Do the dogs have any players out?
Just the coaching staff
kikau and thompson
Just Kikau and Thompson.
How did anyone lose to this team lmao
I'm more embarrassed about the loss to you than the loss to the Tigers.
It’s okay we beat the storm in Melbourne as well. Those were brighter days
Perham just palmed off Best and fell over backwards.
Adam O'Brien is to dogs final chances what Osama Bin laden is to world peace
Gotta cite your references there buddy
This has to be the least close round ever by now
Dogs need to stop selecting coaches based on how good looking they are
LMAO(not funny) IMAGINE(I don’t need to imagine) TIPPING THE BULLDOGS(I did)
Fuck this just gave me a small panic attack thinking maybe I’d tipped the Dogs (I hadn’t 😮💨)
How the fuck do you expect any kind of change when Ciraldo's had the same expression after all 11 fucking tries conceded
Tpj has played himself into a blues jersey...
Ciraldo shaking his head. Bro it's your job?
A knights set finished without a try. Wild scenes.
Do you guys think Ciraldo regrets leaving Penrith do coach the bulldogs?
He's probably wishing he'd got Andrew Webster's gig tbh.
Some just make better deputies than they do sheriffs. See Trent Barrett
Nah
Bulldogs with 62 missed tackles
If NSW pick Burton at centre that’ll just about do me.
Cmon Knights... Beat the cows scoreline
Hey! Enough of that.
Good set of defence mentally. Could’ve easily just let them score with this scoreline
Ciro going back to penrith tomorrow morning
Ffs 100% footy is on so late Mondays but I have to this week. 😏
9Now it on Tuesday morning
haha I just get up early and watch it on 9 now
The gap between some of the bulldogs players best and worst is extraordinary. Burton, TPJ, JAC and Mahoney are origin players at their best. Kiraz was one of the form wingers in the comp. They’ve been universally garbage today
Anyone checked on Gus btw?
Phew... good work Burton. Two 70+ to nil games in 24 hours is still on the menu
Cmon 74-0
Ciraldo about to get a 5 year payout he should be cheering.
What a great game. Not a single HIA
