Congratulations to the Bulldogs for one of the most dirty and cynical performances by a team I've seen . Graham leading with his head to use it as a battering ram on numerous occasions (he knocked Dave Tyrell out with an identical tackle in 2013), Tim Browne trying to inflict further damage to Burgess when packing a scrum , Mbye tripping Keary with a wrestling move in backplay , Finucane using his hand to rake the ball when defending his line (and amazingly escaping the sin bin), players lying down all over the place to milk penalties , Reynolds constantly standing offside when Souths were attacking . The Bulldogs have a bit of a history of trying anything to win grand finals like illegally taking out Ellery Hanley, biting key players (Graham again), , salary cap rorts and chronic offside play.
I had to laugh when Bill Harrigan said that the head clashes were accidental. Unofficially Souths players were fuming after the match. Let's just say Souths V Bulldogs next year will be interesting . Graham also carried on like a princess when he was presented with his loser's medal.
