The 2021 Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs season was the 87th in the club's history. They were competing in the National Rugby League's 2021 Telstra Premiership, under head coach Trent Barrett who had his first season in charge of the team.[1]

Fixtures

In 2021, The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, were no friend to winning. The team consisting of Josh Jackson, Nick Meaney, Jake Averillo, and many others only were able to capture 3 wins. These 3 wins consisting of an Anzac round 18-12 upset against The Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks, A 28-6 surprise win against the Saint George Illawarra Dragons at Accor stadium, and a 38-0 farewell win in round 25 to Will Hopoate, a club favourite and Nick Meaney, a superkid. This game seemed to show a light of hope for the young squad.
