The Bulldogs are poised to launch yet another raid on the Panthers, targetting talented hooker Mitch Kenny for next season. Former Panthers assistant coach Trent Barrett has already lured Jack Hetherington, Matt Burton and Brent Naden to Belmore and has now set his sights on Kenny. The Bulldogs are desperate for a classy hooker for next season and Kenny fits the bill perfectly, being stuck behind star number nine Api Koroisau at the Panthers. With Koroisau and seven team-mates on Origin duty or suspended last weekend, Kenny was one of the best players in the depleted Penrith side as they fell to Wests Tigers at Leichhardt. At 23, Kenny is a Panthers local junior who has served his apprenticeship and is now ready to be a regular top grade hooker. The Bulldogs' first choice was Storm star Brandon Smith but he is under contract to the premiers for another 12 months.
