The 1935 season marked a historic milestone for the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, as they made their debut in the New South Wales Rugby Football League Premiership (NSWRFL). Entering the competition as a brand-new club brought both excitement and growing pains, as the Bulldogs faced a steep learning curve against more established sides.

It was a tough initiation, with the Bulldogs enduring some of the heaviest defeats in rugby league history, including back-to-back losses to St. George Dragons (91-6) and Eastern Suburbs Roosters (87-7). Despite the challenges, Canterbury showed grit and resilience, finishing 8th out of 9 teams, recording two wins across their first season and laying the foundation for a proud future.

The 1935 Bulldogs jersey remains a treasured piece of the club’s history. Featuring the original stylised “C-B” logo within a shield and distinctive blue and white butcher-style horizontal stripes, the long-sleeve jersey is a bold visual reminder of the team’s early spirit and determination.

Perfect for passionate Bulldogs fans and collectors of rugby league history, this 1935 retro jersey honours the beginnings of a club that would go on to become one of the game’s true powerhouses.
