In another significant celebration, the Bulldogs will highlight the distinguished career of club stalwart Corey Hughes as he makes his last home game appearance having played over 250 grade games with the Club.
Bulldogs CEO Mr Todd Greenberg today encouraged all fans to get out to the game and enjoy the festivities.
"Directly after the game our club will pay tribute to two Bulldogs icons and we would like every Rugby League fan to join us to celebrate their careers."

Youngster Aaron Groom is set to come into the Bulldogs side for Monday's clash against traditional rivals St George Illawarra Dragons at ANZ Stadium with hooker Corey Hughes unlikely to play.
Hughes was injured during the Bulldogs disappointing loss against the Warriors last week and Groom trained in the position yesterday.
Groom has played in three matches this season since switching across from Manly with one match being at halfback and two matches from the interchange. Groom has battled injury at times this season and has been hampered by bad luck when a more permanent first grade spot beckoned.
The Bulldogs made two forced changes for Monday's clash with Ben Roberts and Lee Te Maari dropped for disciplinary reasons.
Toyota Cup sensation Ben Barba has been named as Roberts replacement. Barba has scored 27 tries from 17 matches this season at Toyota Cup level and has scored 238 points - exactly 100 clear of the Warriors Kevin Locke. Barba will start from the interchange bench and more than likely be used in two spells from coach Steve Folkes.
Barba's selection in the top grade has been coming for weeks on the back of his outstanding form in the Toyota Cup. Folkes was recently asked about Barba following the Bulldogs embarrassing loss against Canberra with Folkes saying that selecting Barba at this point in time would be 'criminal' and labeled faithful supporters who pushed or Barba as 'niff nuffs'. However, yesterday Barba trained strongly with the first grade squad and said that Folkes was an outstanding assistance to him and helped him along greatly.
No official replacement was named for Te Maari, but versatile back-rower Nick Kouparitsas is the likely replacement. Kouparitsas came in for Sonny Bill Williams last week and has played regular first grade in the last two seasons, but has struggled for form this year.
