Meanwhile, the Dragons boss denied rumours the joint venture club was chasing Bulldogs winger Hazem El Masri, saying: "I wouldn't even know who his manager is."
It's Adam Houda, who said goal-kicking ace El Masri was "getting closer" to finalising a deal after meeting with Bulldogs management today.
The `Dogs have upped their offer to El Masri since the emotional loss of captain Steve Price to NZ Warriors this week.
"We're honest about our position, which is he wants to stay at the Bulldogs and see out his career there but it must be financially viable," said Houda, who expects the winger to announce a decision on Monday.
