Jack Cogger to Giants one year with an option for another year (on his side) The rebuilding continues. Bulldogs fans seem to rate him.

Is that Batley or Canterbury?
So it is Canterbury!
Never saw that one coming. Does that mean we are no longer interested in Lolahai (Salford)?
Wonder if our current halfbacks / standoffs will drop down the pecking order or be shipped out? (and I don't mean Sezer).

Gaskell apparently on his way

Salford wanted a ridiculous fee for Lolohea I’ve been told. He’s OOC in 2021 so we could end up getting him then

Jack Cogger's Dad (Trevor) used to play for Leigh, thought you might like to know.

I thought it might be the Cogger who used to play for Oldham, he was a terrific player.

Was that John, unusual surname might be related.?

That's his uncle and yes he was a good player

Watson is quoted as saying that Cogger's signing brings competition at half back so Gasky may be staying. Cogger has also played at no.9 for the Bulldogs so gives us cover in a couple of positions. Gaskell can also play in centres if needed.

Seems to give us a bit of X factor . Trying to not get too excited but got no idea what the squad will look like by the time the season starts

With all the activity (ins and outs) it really makes next season one to look forward to with confidence for a change. Perhaps we should all compliment the club on the actions they have taken. I know a lot of people were unhappy when Simon Woolford's contract was not extended but the changes that have taken place since show the determination of the club's management to move the club forward, well done Ken and Richard.
