Big moment for these two 👊
Hunter Wigzell & Riley Ansell pull on the A Grade guernsey for the first time this weekend 🔴🔵
Hunter has worked his way into the side after solid efforts across the first two rounds in the reserves, proving himself at every chance. Riley has earned his opportunity through strong performances in the U17.5s while consistently training with the senior group, showing he’s ready for the step up.
Nothing given, everything earned.
Back them in 💥 #Bulldogs ... See MoreSee Less

As one of Australia’s leading rural and business insurers, they’re all about community, strong partnerships, and good old-fashioned face-to-face service 🤝
Even better — when you get in touch, mention you’re from the club and the club earns a kickback, which is a great way to support us! ❤️🤍💙
