Hahaha, maybe not look at signing Luke Thompson, let the dogs play with 10 players next year?
TBH, I don't know much about Asiata, is he worth looking at?

ASIATA’S DOG SWITCH OFF
The Bulldogs bid to land John Asiata appears to have fallen through due to salary cap constraints.
The Dogs have pulled out of talks to land the Broncos forward owing to the lack of cash available in their salary cap.
On Tuesday, 12 players – including ex-Origin prop Dylan Napa – were released by the Bulldogs.

With the club having spent big on Josh Addo-Carr, Matt Burton, Matt Dufty, Tevita Pangai Junior, Brent Naden and Paul Vaughan, there’s little room to manoeuvre in their salary cap.
The Dogs have also been shopping Brandon Wakeham around, while Kyle Flanagan has been linked with a move to the Super League.
But they have been unable to reduce the pressure on their cap, ending Asiata’s hope of getting another deal.
“I have spoken to John and told him not to wait for us if he finds somewhere else to play,” Canterbury football manager Phil Gould told WWOS.
