Daryl Halligan


One of the most reliable goalkickers in recent league history, the lanky Kiwi has twice been top pointscorer in the Winfield Cup (1994 & 1995). In 1999 he became the highest all-time Bulldogs pointscorer (1286 pts; 1104 NSWRL/ARL/NRL, 182 Super League) and holds the record for the most points in a season (270 in 1994; 12 tries, 110 goals, 2 field goals) and most goals in a season (116) Daryl is also an asset off-field - as a Bulldogs' marketing rep.
