Short turnaround, their home game, more suspensions…what could possibly go wrong? 😂

What’s everyone’s thoughts on Bula at the moment. I know he is still fresh into his career and that the second year is always hard. But for me this year he has seemed to have regressed. May sound abit different but I think Bula would be a great centre. His ball running and defence is not going to be a concern and also someone we can (attacking) kick With maybe a Staines going to fb

I wonder if they have gone into a camp for the week rather than fly to Sydney on Monday then up to Townsville on Thursday.

Welcome to the forum. Bula is proving solid but not spectacular. Needs to get a hell of a lot more involved and interested in our attack.

Not sure, but it makes sense to stay north of the border.

They had a members event tonight in Brisbane so I believe that will be the case.

No reason why a move to the centres wouldn’t be a bad one …. Supporters would say yes as we know the season’s over, but alas it’s still business as usual for the players and coaches.

if Staines is his replacement, please for the love of God and our sanity leave Bula at fb. It takes at least 2 full seasons for an fb to hit his straps and unless we had a potential superstar waiting in the lower grades I leave bula where he is.

not sure if blaize talagi is wrapped up at Parramatta or if we can have a crack at Lomax now BA is gone. 

potentially maybe 

1. Blaize talagi

3. Bula

4. Olam

I think Bula has been incredibly disappointing this year. Last year he was great, but this year he's gone backwards. Can be lazy at times too. I wouldn't have him as a lock for fullback next year with Turuva coming. In fact, for next year, of the current players, only Api, Galvin, Olam and probably Stef have cemented their positions. The rest are a mix of ok, bog average and terrible.

  1. @lorenzo I know that Staines in a perfect world wouldn’t be his replacement. But last year before his injury he was our best option there his effort players are always there. With bula it looks to me that he is just going through the motions which in todays game is something that we can’t afford. All the best fullbacks are sniffing around the ruck looking for opportunities. When it comes to bula he doesn’t even want to run it back on a kick return. Just an observation

Bula has been up and down this season. He's very young, and has played about 25 senior games at any level. He's an absolute mile away from his peak, so we should absolutely stick with him and let him develop. 

It's a marathon not a sprint.
