Matt Orford joins the Bulldogs coaching staff

The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are pleased to announce the addition of Matt Orford to the coaching staff at the Club.

Orford has joined the club in the position of Specialist Skills Coach and will be working with players at all levels including the junior representative sides, youth squads, the high performance youth academy and also the NRL squad.

This position at the Bulldogs is the 34-year-old's first official appointment at an NRL Club in a coaching role since retiring from the game as player in 2011.

Coach Des Hasler is pleased to have someone with the experience that Orford has on board.

"It is great to have Matt on board, he brings with him a wealth of experience which he will no doubt share with not only the NRL squad members but also through the entire junior system that we have here at the Club," Hasler said.
