There are no longer any speakers of Doolboong, and no written records of it exist. However, speakers of the nearby Gajirrabeng and Miriwoong languages say it was similar to Gajirrabeng.[3] This would place it in the Jarrakan family; however, it may instead belong to the neighbouring Worrorran family.[2]
