This week, we sit down with Bulldogs middle Max King, a key figure in their forward pack who embodies the blue and white spirit. Max shares his journey from the Gold Coast Titans, where he made his unlikely NRL debut, to playing under the legendary Craig Bellamy and alongside future immortal Cameron Smith at the Melbourne Storm.
Max opens up about being handed a lifeline by the Bulldogs and witnessing the team’s remarkable rebuild under the guidance of Phil Gould and mastermind coach Cameron Ciraldo. From bottom of the table to finals footy, Max takes us behind the scenes of how the Bulldogs transformed themselves into serious contenders and the team’s goals for 2025.
To wrap up the episode, Max gives us an inside scoop on the Bulldogs locker room with a fun game, revealing which teammate is the coach’s pet and his dream signing at the Bulldogs for next season.
