Canterbury Bulldogs return to Accor Stadium on Friday night to host the North Queensland Cowboys in what shapes as a crucial round 9 clash for both sides.</span></p><p

many by becoming the first and only team this season to defeat the Penrith Panthers, the Bulldogs have let themselves down with sloppy losses to the Eels and Broncos, conceding 70 points and committing 27 errors across those two games.</span></p><p style="line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:10pt;margin-top:10pt;" dir="ltr"><span

of the more entertaining sides in the competitions this season, the Cowboys have showcased plenty of attacking flair, particularly in their win over the Sharks.</span></p><p
