  • I hope that's true

  • Don't no much about him, what's he as a player? 

  • Nice if true

  • Snapped up probably because ther was no other snappers 

  • Didn't he start with us and then go to Canterbury ?

    • Yes  He will be a cheap pickup and probably bench at best but had a lot of potential before going to a struggling dogs

      • possibly battle with Murchie ? Or is Murchie a lock you reckon? 

        • I would think Murchie is well ahead of Doorey.

    SALARY cap pressure has cost the Canterbury Bulldogs one of their best young forwards.

    Matt Doorey, 22, a former Australian Schoolboys star and NSW under-20s second-rower, has been snapped up by the Parramatta Eels.

     

    It’s a huge signing for the Eels following the loss of edge forwards Isaiah Papali’i to Wests Tigers and Marata Niukore to the New Zealand Warriors.

    Doorey played 13 NRL games for the Bulldogs last year.

     

    He joins Parramatta having been highly recommended by his former coach Trent Barrett, who is now an assistant to Brad Arthur at the Eels.

     

    The Bulldogs already have more than 30 players on contract and will have to lose at least another two before the start of next season.

"I think it is an overpay but not egregious by any means. I would say $50-100k over but i think it is reasonable too. Just to get players that are in form that is ok.
Penrith only offered reported $350k."
