The Bulldogs were back in 2024, a revitalised season that saw them return to finals football.
New recruit Stephen Crichton was a massive addition to the club, claiming Dally M Captain of the Year honours after lifting his team in a massive way,
And while their season ended somewhat disappointingly, thanks to a Josh Addo-Carr drug scandal, they are in prime position to keep the good times rolling for the blue and white.
Only three players are confirmed to be departing the Bulldogs next season, but there are plenty more weighing up their future with the team.
Jeral Skelton will make the move to the Wests Tigers, while Harrison Edwards joins the North Queensland Cowboys.
Zane Tetevano will also wrap up his time with the club, officially retiring from the NRL.
Josh Addo-Carr is the headline departure though after he tested positive for a road-side drug test.
Two new faces were already locked in to join the Bulldogs with Tom Amone coming across the seas from the Leigh Leopards, and Sitili Tupouniua coming across the highway from the Sydney Roosters.
The Dogs have also since added reinforcements in their backline with Marcelo Montoya returning to Belmore and Enari Tuala joining from Newcastle.
