A Bulldogs penalty turns into a Bulldogs blunder, as Matt Burton fails to find touch thanks to a diving effort over the sideline by Alofiana Khan-Pereira, who bats the ball infield.
The Warriors regain possession and go on the attack in the Bulldogs’ half, but Taine Tuaupiki spills the ball while attempting a pass and Canterbury are let off the hook.
The Dogs then have more success with a bomb in the next set, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak leaping high but unable to bring the ball down cleanly and Viliame Kikau grabs it for Canterbury.
A few tackles later Kikau produces his second offload of the game, and this one is a beauty – unleashing Stephen Crichton in space for the game’s opening try.
Bulldogs 6, Warriors 0 after six minutes
