Bulldogs Team of the Decade - 2015

[Wahesh]

So a few of you might remember this.

Bulldogs Name ‘Team of the Decade’

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have tonight celebrated their 80th Anniversary at a Gala Dinner held at Le Montage, Lilyfield.

www.bulldogs.com.au

Now this was the criteria:

• Players must have played first grade between 2005 – 2014
• Have played 50 or more first grade games for the Bulldogs - Not necessarily all in the years 2005 – 2014
• Only players are eligible – not administrators
• Players must embody the spirit and values of the Bulldogs

The selected side is as follows:

1. Luke Patten
2. Hazem El Masri
3. Josh Morris
4. Willie Tonga
5. Matt Utai
6. Josh Reynolds
7. Trent Hodkinson
8. James Graham
9. Michael Ennis
10. Roy Asotasi
11. Sonny Bill Williams
12. Andrew Ryan
13. Greg Eastwood

14. Aiden Tolman
15. Mark O’Meley
16. Willie Mason
17. Frank Pritchard

Some, can somebody please explain to me, how in the name of sweet merciful eggplant SHIT, does the number 11 player meet this criteria:

• Players must embody the spirit and values of the Bulldogs

So is it within the spirit and values of the Bulldogs that a player takes the midnight express out of Belmore when his team are struggling, and relying on him to get themselves out of the mess they were in? I mean, I was absolutely gobsmacked by this.

Then to make matters worse, in 2020, Nick Politis was shown on TV during a Friday night channel 9 broadcast having dinner with a few people, including Khoder Nasser, and he was on the phone, all business. What was he doing? Working on signing SBW back to the Roosters. THE ROOSTERS. I can't believe that he managed to do that. I'm still stunned by this. He has no shame.

And however nominated him should be ashamed. I for one and disgusted. And I think Gus, as much as I respect him, was one of the individuals who nominated him.

Who cares, such a long time ago that he left. And such a long time ago that this article was written. Don’t get youself worked up over things like this. Why weren’t you outraged 10 years ago when this team was named.

Lol at these blokes on the bench, they make the starting 13 everyday of the week!!

Like you I was gutted when SBW left our club.
The timing that he chose to leave was poor and utterly selfish.
However, I have learnt to live with this.
No SBW or other footballer should have the right to repeat this.
He has tarnished his reputation at his own peril.
Don't let him get under your skin - if you do he wins.

All respect to Graham and Asotasi but having them over Ogre and Mason is a disaster

Mitch Browns a bit hard done by here!

Move on, the past is the past … the club is heading into a new era, enjoy the journey ..

Geeze imagine the team of the decade from 2016-2025. Does Okunbor get a run?

The way we’re playing now…nobody who was in the squad from 2016-2022 should get a run

Just copy and paste the top 17 from next week. That should be our strongest team.

I was. But I wasn't as active on the Kennel back then.

100%. Even Frank loved playing for us and hated the thought of leaving. I remember him and Kasiano were the bash brothers back in 2011. Absolute beasts.

What is this shit?
This is some weird shit, even for you Wahash

Oh don't worry mate, he's never getting under my skin. I'm still gutted that the club has let him back in (even today to an extent) when everyone else has and did move on. The management really leave me scratching my head at times.

Say what you want about him. I, like many on here, didn't want him back after what happened in 2020, but, he single-handedly redeemed himself in the game against Souths in round 19 that (shortened) year. He saved us from getting the wooden spoon and handed it to the Broncos with his performance in the game (sorry @Kaz).
