Gus very active. Anyone else playing?

It's good to read the much vaunted Canterbury development system is producing results.

Are we ? Very quiet

Is that seriously their back page on day of origin decider. Their obsession with tigers is insane.

They had a separate Origin lift out …

Agree … they are obsessed though

 

[Tiger Stripes]

lol did you watch the other side of the ball ? They’re turnstiles . People do understand 50% of the games they’re watch involve defending …

Turuva did OK both sides of the ball, saving tries.
Is he on $800-900k?

Bula is an outstanding fullback and ours. We don't need Kennedy.

Bulla has a manager who gets in peoples heads and just crushes their idea of playing here , Mosses will create an issue 100% he is earning zero from Bulla and a new deal get him money , if we extend Bulla mosses gets zero and he will not be liking that , stand by for another shit show

This is the guy that made the forum lose its marbles? Not Hetherington, or Fifita, or the crap May brother, or the myriad of other atrocious suggestions? Kennedy is one of more sane suggestions. We just don’t really have a place for him.

Fullback when mosses starts his shit , mosses needs to do a new deal or Bula is not worth having on his books , we extend him we pay $ 900 k he ain’t worth that at present , And mosses gets nothing , he would be doing everything in his power to move Bula out of tiger town

A lot of fondness for Will Kennedy. I don't believe he will leave the Sharks, nor should he because he has been a fine player for them. It was John Morris who selected Will Kennedy for his first NRL game. Good vision from him. Also his father, Bubba Kennedy, ex Balmain centre is still playing in Group 10 at the age of 50. Well done!

Sharks rookie inspired by dad's longevity

Cronulla rookie Will Kennedy has revealed his dad, former Balmain centre William 'Bubba' Kennedy, is still playing in Group 10.

Bubba Kennedy was a very good player. Might have played for Country Origin. Very popular with fans during some lean times.

From all accounts, Bula is happy at WTs.

If Bula leaves hopefully richo calls up sua from the storm

 

[Merlot]

We should be doing the same

Dogs love stockpiling junior 1/2s of late. Gus will probably con a 1/2s academy out of V Landy's ,then retire

 

[Furious1]

You don't let a player of Bulas ability and potential go after 50 first grade games. The hard work has been done now and all things being equal the tree should start to bear some fruit.

Our side 1-12 looks pretty good next year

1. Bula
2. Turuva
3. Douhei
4. Toa
5. May
6. Luai
7. L. Fainu
8. Pole
9. Korisau
10. May
11. S. Fainu
12. Pearce-Paul
13. (Need a new signing)

I’d personally rather Taylan in the centres with Skelton on the wing but we need Douhei for his goal kicking.

if we sign a proper ball playing lock there should be no reason to be a bottom 8 side anymore

He did alright in attack ? I beg to differ . He was amazing out of yardage , and played a different type of fullback . More direct and pushing through the middle of the field .
There’s a reason the current Aus fullback isn’t earning anywhere near the top fullbacks in the game . Whilst his style works well in rep footy , because too many chefs spoil the broth , he’s not in the elite fullbacks in the game . The elite guys like teddy , Ponga , turbo before his hammy betrayed him , Walsh , are getting paid 1.2m because the team is built around them . This is what the hope is with Bula . That’s his potential . Whether he gets there eventually well that’s on him , but that’s what people see . Obviously he’s not there yet .
Some stupid takes on this forum I swear . Usually from the same people over and over …

makasini will take doueihi’s spot

Mark N has made plenty of centres look stupid this season. I'm willing to give Luke another shot.

Luke Laulii , is a real talent. Very young but coming on nicely as is his brother Kit. We need to hang on to these boys.

A lot of talk about Bula lately. I really like Bula and think he's got plenty of upside but I
wouldn't mind us having a chat to Will Kennedy if IM is going to be a issue. In saying that,if Bula wants
to stick around i'd like us to make (even though he's always injured) a back up in Kade Dykes.

I don't understand all the talk around Kobe Hetherington. I'd rather Jack Hetherington,Adam
elliot and Ethan Bullemor. Even for depth. I know we need edges but we need some depth too.
I don't think it would cost over the top.

I don’t understand the talk around Jack Hetherington, Adam Elliot or Ethan Bullemore either

 

[pirie]

this forum has straight up lost its marbles wanting Will Kennedy

Kennedy is very average

 

[Odessa]

Our guy !!!!!!!!! 🐯

Is this real and when was it ?

 

[shankspony]

Yep me either, we already have enough average players who try hard and give their best most weeks. The players mentioned aren't really upgrades on anything we already have, they are solid players for sure but nothing special.
