Kiraz signed on to stay at Belmore

THE Bulldogs have signed former St Johns Eagles junior – Jacob Kiraz, on a two year NRL contract that will keep him at Belmore until the end of 2024.

Kiraz, currently on a train and trial contract, made a very impressive NRL debut this season against the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium, where his aggressive running and tenacious defence were on display throughout the match. He also showed his durability during the game, playing the last third of the match with a cramp in his leg.
The 20-year-old is a Bulldogs local junior from the St Johns Eagles, who returned to Sydney this year from Newcastle to take on a train and trial contract with the club. He got his chance in first grade against the Broncos alongside Billy Tsikrikas, after injuries and COVID created the opportunity.
