The Kaiviti Silktails have announced a three-year partnership with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.

The partnership will see an alignment with the Bulldogs and Silktails Football Programs for the next three seasons, ending the clubs four-year partnership with the Sydney Roosters.

“Our club is so excited to be partnering with the Bulldogs and there were just so many reasons why this deal made sense for us," Kaiviti Silktails Chairman Petero Civoniceva said.

"Watching the rise of their NRL team this year was something that won the hearts of all Rugby League fans.

"The rise of the NRL team has been built on what Phil Gould and Adam Hartigan have done with their Pathways Program and to align ourselves with a strong program was paramount for us.” 

“I would like to take this time out to thank the Sydney Roosters for the last four years together in particular Daniel Anderson and we wish the Roosters all the very best in the future.”.

Speaking from Suva in Fiji to promote the Silktails partnership, Bulldogs GM of Football Phil Gould had the following to say on the Silktails deal.

“Over the past two seasons the Bulldogs have increased our commitment to the game in Fiji, particularly on the back of bringing Viliame Kikau to our club," Gould said.

"Since then, we have established ‘The Kikau Academy’ in Fiji and our Ron Massey Cup and Jersey Flegg teams have played in Fiji three times in the last twelve months to help promote this.

"Partnering now with the Silktails is an extension of our commitment to Rugby League in Fiji.”
