The Bulldogs are gearing up to break crowd records with an expected turnout of over 70,000 fans on Monday afternoon.

After previously setting a record for a regular season game with 65,305 spectators during their dominant performance against South Sydney on Good Friday, excitement is building for the King's Birthday match against the Eels.

Canterbury's resurgence over the last 18 months has positioned them as a formidable team, currently leading the NRL ladder.

The upcoming match will evoke memories of the thrilling 2009 preliminary final, where 74,549 fans watched Parramatta secure a victory over the Bulldogs.

Bailey Hayward, a utility player for Canterbury, emphasized the significance of the match, stating it serves as a crucial preparation for the finals, marking the end of an eight-year playoff drought last season.

Hayward underscored the importance of engaging with young fans, recalling his own childhood experiences and the lasting impact of these interactions.

In summary, the Bulldogs are not only focused on winning games but also on fostering a strong connection with their supporters as they aim to make crowd records a regular occurrence.
