Canterbury coach Des Hasler will demand better options from his Canterbury attack, after criticising their "dumb" play in yesterday's 18-12 loss to the Wests Tigers.

The Bulldogs sunk to their first NRL loss in almost a month at ANZ Stadium after appearing to have the match in their grip with 15 minutes to play.

Canterbury held a 12-10 lead and looked set to close the match out, before a determined Tigers outfit emerged from a month of darkness to clinch the two points.
