Case for the defence proves Bulldogs have foundations in place for long-term success

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are tracking for an historic defensive season.

The Bulldogs this week head to Brisbane sitting on top of the ladder, undefeated through their first six games for the first time since 1938 .

Canterbury went 48 -116 in that period, hired the likes of Dean Pay and Trent Barrett to coach the side.

But the Bulldogs put together seven straight losing seasons from 2017 to 2023 and finished 11th or worse every year.

Starting a season well, as the unbeaten Bulldogs have done, is also a great guide and teams with an outright or share of the lead after round eight have reached the grand final in five of the last seven years . It has been an astonishing rise from the boys from Belmore and this is no false dawn. The Bulldogs are the real deal and are set up to be genuine premiership contenders for years to come..
