Take a walk down memory lane and re-live the 1995 Grand Final win as we countdown until our opening game of the 2016 season against the Manly Sea-Eagles.
Having finished in sixth place at the end of the regular season, the Bulldogs managed a history-making finals surge, winning three sudden death matches to make the grand final.
Their opponents were the Manly Sea-Eagkles, who finished the regular season with a 22-3 win/loss record.
Canterbury were ahead at half-time 6-4 and went on to score two more tries through Rod Silva and Glen Hughes.
At game's end Terry Lamb enjoyed the rare honour of celebrating as a retiring victorious skipper, although he surprisingly returned for the 1996 season.
The Bulldogs celebrated their seventh premiership and Jim Dymock walked away with the Clive Churchill meda.
Sydney Bulldogs 17 (Tries: Price, Hughes, Silva. Goals: Halligan 2/5. Field Goal: Lamb.)
