Cameron Ciraldo Attempt To RE sign Terry Lamb
Canterbury Bulldogs club legend and four-time premiership winner, Terry Lamb believes new coach Cameron Ciraldo can lead the Dogs back to the finals.
Having last competed in the finals in 2016, the Bulldogs are eager to stun the competition this year with new signings in both the playing group and coaching staff.
Given the reigns of head coach for his first season, Ciraldo arrived at Belmore after being an assistant coach with the Penrith Panthers.
The rookie coach gained offers from the New Zealand Warriors and Wests Tigers before finally choosing Belmore as his destination.
Speaking to NCA NewsWire, Terry Lamb entrusted new coach Cameron Ciraldo to guide them back into the NRL finals.
“He’s a great man. He went into the club and straightaway wanted to learn who we are, who we had at the club years ago and the success we had through the 80s and 90s,” Lamb said about Ciraldo.
“He knows everything about the Bulldogs who have played the game over the years and he just loves who we are.”
“I don’t like saying where we’re going to come in the competition, but I’d like to say we’re going to be in the top eight next year.”
Aiming for a finals spot, Ciraldo was able to lure away Fijian international forward Viliame Kikau from the Panthers. The close relationship between the two individuals and Matt Burton will be vital towards Canterbury’s success.
