The occasion will play its role in this game being a tight contest. Both of these teams are trending in matches that have hit the under sp we can expect that it will be a defensive battle that will not only keep the score under the game total but will aid in the Warriors at least covering the 7.5 points as the underdog.
Andrew Webster will give his iconic hero free hands to jig and jag his way around the field and enjoy his final match in front of his home fans so expect Johnson to be eager to find the tryline and cross for a final meat pie at home.

Canterbury put in a 2024 Bulldogs performance against the Dolphins last week, wearing Wayne Bennett’s men down with their hard defence and owning 57% of possession and a whopping 66% of the territory. With the Dolphins gassed the Bulldogs put their foot down and ran in two second half tries to put the match out of reach 30-10.
It is another match where the Doggies defence was the star and Matt Burton’s ability to pin their opposition in their own end from his perfect kicking game.
At this stage of the year all you can do is rant on about the near perfect Bulldogs defence that once again restricted their opposition to just 1 linebreak and only 10 points making them now the best defensive side in the comp, allowing an average of just 16 points per game in 2024 while conceding just 3.7 linebreaks per game.
