Salmon pointed to the Bulldogs crest on his jersey and mouthed the words "weak-gutted dog" in the direction of the camera.

Stuart infamously called Salmon a weak-gutted dog in a stunning press conference a couple of seasons ago while he was at the Panthers.

Now in his second season at the Bulldogs, Salmon was quick to remind Stuart after he scored a try in the 47th minute of the clash at GIO Stadium.
