Despite the Intrust Cup currently facing an unclear future due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Bulldogs look to have seen enough in the 23-year-old back-rower.

The Canberra native is sure to add plenty of fire-power to Trent Barrett's side for next season, with his forward pack a key area needing attention.

Stuckey will join fellow forward recruits Tevita Pangai Junior and Paul Vaughan among the extensive list of gun recruits for 2022.
