The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are set to celebrate their 90th anniversary in grand fashion on Friday night, with ten former club captains taking to the field before kick-off to commemorate the milestone ahead of their high-stakes showdown against the Sydney Roosters.
Club icon George Peponis will be joined by fellow legends Chris Anderson, Peter Tunks, Terry Lamb, Simon Gillies, Dean Britt, Steve Price, Mick Ennis, James Graham, Josh Jackson, and Andrew Ryan for a special pre-match ceremony at Accor Stadium.
The anniversary festivities come amid a resurgence for the Bulldogs, who currently lead the NRL ladder and are drawing an average of 35,700 fans per home game in 2025—up significantly from 20,848 in 2024.
With CEO Aaron Warburton aiming for 30,000 fans at every home fixture, Friday’s celebratory clash is expected to be another major success as Canterbury strengthens its bid to become the most well-supported club in the league.
