Bulldogs batten down the hatches

January 18, 2008

Since the departure of NRL heavyweight Willie Mason from the Bulldogs to the Roosters, the Dogs have suffered some continuing bad headlines. Reni Matuia was soon after caught on the booze and then there was the discussion that Rugby League club captain at the Bulldogs Andrew Ryan was keen to exit the Bulldogs and join fellow NRL club the Parramatta Eels.

Since then, the Dogs have continued their pre-season training under intense silence. Limited media access (apart from a promo with the RSPCA at Yagoona) and hard work is the order of the day as coach Steve Folkes and his crew work to fine tune the young team.

Many feel the fire power at the Bulldogs will be quite limited in comparison to recent years. They might feel exactly how much Willie Mason meant to them now that he is gone.

Guest_2272 : When is SBW fighting Rory Freeborn? my mate told me that there is a fight organised? hopefully it is more a challenge than the last...
boxer_samoanchavez : give sbw a break. He isn't a boxer. He hasn't had an amatuer career in boxing. He doesn't train specifically for boxing during the year. He's a professional rugby player. He grew up playing rugby/league... that's his trade.. He trains all year for that.... not boxing.... so give him a break when it comes to boxing. Of course he isn't that good.... But i bet if he trained as long as some of you critics have trained, he'd knock you's out... because he's a gifted athlete with good coordina
Guest_4250 : "Has" anyone got anything nice to say about "Sonny Bill" ? & the sad thing is the majority of you guy's bitching are men ! You knw his "Devine" & his living the life doing all things he want's to while his still breathing.Sonny knw's what he wan'ts & he doesn't let anything or anyone step in his way ! To you people that always have something to say "Get a life of your own" seriously why would you bother hating ! Sick In The Head.
VeryqcbufoodBuyHyd : incrumva
spoon : All you guys are trying to compare him to a real boxer... And saying SBW is a pussy and fighting bums etc... This is only his 2nd fight and he's not a fully trained boxer, he's a Rugby/League player who's considering switching to boxing... Again, that was only his 2nd fight and you can't expect him to be like Mike Tyson... Only way to become better is by training and starting from easy opponents and going up to harder opponents...
boxer_nz : hey sonny bill,just saw your fight,pretty sad bro,you sound like abit of a wanna be boxer,your foot work is crap and your gaurd is down most of the time.try and fight someone from auckland,thats where im from,you wouldnt last bro.you should start of at amatur first,before you star calling yourself a pro boxer,coz your far from that. boxer from balmoral lee gar gym
Guest_4062 : sonny bill,you aint no boxert bro,how the hell can you be a pro boxer when you havent even done any amatur boxing.sounds like abit of a scandal bro.dont think im a hater bro coz i aint i think your an awsome athlete at rugby,but the boxing thing is another story.im from auckland,(avonda le) ive trained ,boxed,and had fights with plenty of brothers .its funny how they only give you useless white dudes to fight. once again bro,no disrespect just my opinion,maybe try fighting some of the brothers wh
Guest_2830 : guest 4226 i sense a lot of hostility in your comments.maybe your mumma didn`t give you enough titty when you were younger
