About this episode
The episode discusses the dramatic events of the Bulldogs' season opener and upcoming challenges.
We’re only one game into the 2026 season, and yet we’ve already seen a shock debut, a big-name injury scare, three MRO dramas, a high-quality blockbuster and a down to the wire heartbreaking loss. It’s been almost an entire season’s worth of drama already! Not that we have much time to look back, though, with a red-hot Sydney awaiting, and a bunch of reinforcements needing to be called upon already. This week on the Roar Deal, we talk through all the drama of the Bulldogs season opener along with the team changes that will be needed for this week’s trip to the SCG. Also this week: -The overwhelming response to the revamped club song -The first Roar Deal Medal votes for 2026 -We go through your nickname suggestions for Cody Curtin And much more! This year, we are so grateful to be supported by Kartable - a trade procurement platform created by one of the Roar Deal family.
