Why was Bula named to start in jumper #21?

Why was Bula named to start in jumper #21?

Because the #1 jersey is being rested out of respect for Keith Barnes.

Olam injury concern adds to Wests Tigers' worries

Justin Olam's troublesome knee is the latest issue for Wests Tigers to tackle as they deal with a...

We knew about this issue yet we signed him for 3 years.

The iron is hot on Miller right now. If ever there was a good time to give him exposure in the 1st's it's after 2-3 pretty strong games.

I doubt he's on the field for big minutes. He is a wrecking ball though. Should be fun to watch.

Start the countdown to the first person calling for him to be medically retired.

Said it from the start, there was a reason he wasn’t being picked in first grade at Melbourne! He’s not up to scratch!! On the way out of his career, but we invest into this guy besides one of the younger guys coming through

We need to find a new injury given we signed him knowing about this one.

No wonder he wasn’t in the Melbourne team at the end there

Thanks champion @GNR4LIFE

Miller and TDS in. Laulilii brothers on extended bench.

Does anyone feel this is a panic move to keep other juniors happy or are we simply that short on stocks?

Yeah for anyone thinking we should purchase MORE juniors for next year, Jordie Miller who a lot thought just a few weeks ago wouldn't be ready until 2026 is already going to be exposed.

He shouldn't be anywhere near

Pretty sure stocks running low… I think with twal reportedly out aswell brings us to 10 starting players out

14 / 30 top 30 players are out.

We have MORE juniors coming in next year with many of our players in the 50 - 100 game range leaving.

My point is any position to be filled next year needs to be filled with experience.

Oh yea we definitely need to be in the market looking for some experience in key positions. But as of right now we’ve got shit all to put it nicely hahaha

Twal said on Monday he would play. Guess he was hoping to be right but a call has been made now.

Seeing that Luke Laulilii turned 18 today, could he be a smokie to get a run after being named on the extended bench?

Yes yes yes I can see Luke Laulilii debuting on Saturday!

Be prepared for Olam, Twal & Matamua as final 24 hour outs with the Laulilii brothers & Miller in. No intel, just gut feel!

Further to this, I'm predicting a Staines & Lobb on the right (to keep the combo from last week) with Faataape & Laulilii on the left (same combo as NSW Cup).

Naden to the bench with the plan to come on around 30 min mark for TDS, with Api to hooker & Naden into halves.

Daily Telegraph: Miller’s under 19 Australian schoolboy teammate Heath Mason is also in contention to make his first grade debut for Charlie Staines, who is believed to be in doubt for Saturday’s game at Leichhardt Oval.

Bloody Nora, this will be the worst team to take the field since 1908.
