Haven't had a chance to watch yet

If bula leaves, id rather push turuva to fullback and sign another winger. Turuva is hungry and hunts around the middle of the ruck. Lock him in on winger money then shift him to the #1

I think its important the club quickly decides who ia the best fullback option out of Attard, Brookes and Tavana. Then commit to their development. I have a feeling Tavana has the best all round game and X factor

And what if Bula does not leave? 🤔

 

[crazycat]

I remember hearing someone mention his current contract is 900k per season.
His exposed form is a lot better than Bula, but 2026 is a new year and Bula might live up to his price tag and if that happens we wouldn’t be swapping him.
If we do come to the conclusion that Bula is looking to leave us, we should be headhunting Jaxon Purdue who clearly has a much higher ceiling than Drinkwater.

its weird how someone can be getting a 900k paycheck...

and want more. Not dissing Bula, but Dylan Brown really comes to mind. I mean I get it, one injury and that paycheck stops...

Just the hassle and BS to get what.. maybe 100k more.

That is pretty obvious, isnt it?

TDS fall off has to be studied

TDS didn't fall off here , education wise , he himself decided to rush it .
How the club managed it well and didn't panic buy as they previously would have .
Api on the deal he got out of it was a tag long

 

[crazycat]

The Cowboys think the same about Purdue I would be ringing Todd and ask if I was Benji nothing formal just a chat

I would actually love to swap Benji and Payton for a season.

I reckon Payton would tighten our defense and work ethic and Benji would click with Drinkwater and the Cows halves...

I know not going to happen. But it would be interesting.

I remember Kenty saying on his Podcast that Payten would have been perfect fit for the Tigers.

Mitchell Moses continues to rip into Da Silva at every chance, it’s uncalled for and creates a toxic environment.
They say Ryles is a great coach, a good coach doesn’t allow that to happen.

He blew him self up for the job ,as an assistant shafting the head coach, before he found himself at Auckland

There is a time and place to have a go at a team mate and it’s not on the paddock, but that’s Moses, it’s always everyone fault except him. He has some great skills, but the bottom line is,it’s a team game

You talk about standards from day one of pre-season. No player should be shocked or upset if they cop a spray for a poor effort. Thin skin? Play something else.

I think that's where Ciraldo and Ryles will fall down.

Heck it's where Madge fell down, but less so.

Ciraldo clearly had too much Bully in his environment at the Bulldogs.
Ryles, from what other players have said. They never predicted that he would be coach.

Some people thrive in Harsh competition. It can work when you have to get people to throw their body at another player.
Others shut down.

I suspect TDS is highly regretting his decision to change teams.
