Bulldogs hooker Reed Mahoney has spoken out about recent contract rumors, expressing gratitude for club legend Phil Gould's swift dismissal of the speculation.
Mahoney, who is under contract until 2026, was unfazed by the rumors and is focused on playing his best footy.
As he prepares for his 50th game for the Bulldogs, Mahoney shrugged off criticism calling him a "little smart arse" for his on-field tactics.
In response to Gould's support, Mahoney stated, "All those rumors get shoved around footy all the time, so to have the big man say that feels nice." The Bulldogs are gearing up to face the Dragons in a round one blockbuster, and Mahoney is eager to hit the field and give his all.
