Porter out Bateman in
look how quickly people have turned on Bula after just over 1 season of first grade.
Ive been surprised about the criticism of Bula after last week. Outside of a couple of early errors, he had a great game. A lot of that left side attack featured Bula, either directly or indirectly, scored a try. He had a very good game. Ran 177m, 2 tackle breaks, 2 offloads.
Big test for Stef today, can see the Roosters targeting him & trying to get in his head. If his efforts don’t quite go as he hopes they might important he remains disciplined as he can get a little frustrated.
Stef had a bee in his bonnet last week
Hope his bonnet is buzzing again tonight
Top 8 2023
Very nervous about this game
What could go wrong?
