OFFICIAL Jahream Bula #269

[Jimmy]

Marketing team gonna play into it for sure. Jahream the dream oh so creamy. Still has alot of growth in him and not at his peak. Good character, speed and for the most part good under the high ball. Best yet to come

The Gould creamy comment was clearly trolling Tigers fans, wot a total loser - truly an infantile mentality.

The trolling fun is for us as we watch the Dogs slide and he gets the can.

Message to Gould - when you start listening to fans, you'll soon join them.

Yeah Gus is effecting their recruitment. If I was their fan I'd be annoyed that he is working with nine and the bulldogs get your priorities right. He will say he didn't make an offer. Of course not Bula is still technically signed. But he was going after him no doubt.

Bula is what we need a sa.club. decent defender, good ball playing skills, decent pace. Power top8 fullback. Give him a couple of years and he will take the next step.

To me, it feels a bit like a FU from Moses as this is not the outcome he wanted? I can only surmise that it was him who leaked it to Wiedler to have a small (petty) win.

No doubt …

I mentioned yesterday that the Telegraph reported in a paragraph the May’s re-signing …

The media doesn’t like the Tigers positive news outcomes …

 

[Mccarry]

Thing I hate most about the Wiedler article is that it took the moment for the club to announce it as our win. It’s obviously been talked about for months, with lots of speculation and a reflects the turn around in the club.

Interesting thought. I couldn’t work out why they would leak it. Was the potential for bury the hatchet moment… then…

The conundrum with Taruva is hes on $400k as a winger...
If he excels over the next month as a fullback,he mite almost double his $$ as both new club swld be keen
Hes vulnerable

23yr old quality back who has a team influence & can fit into any position in the backline isn’t common. He also studies the game & is always learning.

It’s why I put him in the same bucket as the Fainu bros that we must secure quickly. His best years are to come.

Paps loves his golf, he could always go to LIV Golf instead, Oh wait. 🤔

All Saudi projects have failed. I reckon they’ll pull out of most of them except the soccer teams

 

[Buttface]

his old man Buba Kennedy played centre for balmain in the late 90's

Mrs Kennedy lives in one of the retirement homes around the corner from me I see her walking the dog.
She has absolutely no idea about football though.
“My husband use to play that football where you pick the ball up” she said to me once.

 

[Lukic]

Turuva won't excel at FB. He'll do his job defensively and in support play I'm sure, but he hasn't shown any ball playing ability. At this stage, he's nothing more than a fill-in fullback in firsts.

 

[mtd#2]

Agree. Might come down to turuva & fonua. Fonua really wants to stay though

The only club I worried about for him was Melbourne.. but his brother isnt anywhere near the starting side and it looks like Bellamy's time in charge might be over with the neurodegenerative disease (hard to see him sticking around for too long). So I think Pole will stick around.

🤣 🤣 🤣

You blokes kill me.
For the past 100 weeks, all we hear is how HBG are blah blah blah.
"Can't re-sign players"
"My cousin, Roger Fabri told me directly that Bula won't sign because HBG has got 3 letters, and 3 is an unlucky number in Bula's culture"
So now, HBG in all of it's glorious incompetence, signs Bula . . . and still the geniuses here want to bad mouth them. Oh, and before you Mensa graduates tell me that of course HBG had nothing to do with Bula re-signing . . . . I know. They also had exactly the same to do with him NOT re-signing.
It's a great signature, a great sign that our club is moving forward.
We should be celebrating this. But again, The People's Front of Judea comes to mind.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Good news. I wonder what new clauses are in this contract that they won’t tell us about that will leak one or two years down the track.

And what are the up-and-coming fullbacks' thoughts on hanging on? eg. Brookes, Attard etc.
Hate to lose Logan Brookes whose contract is up this year I believe.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

I wonder how first choice replacements Mestrov and Benny would have gone running the joint? 🤔

I’ll also say that AD, Twal and Sione all on unders ..

dodged a bullet with no Mestrov for sure

 

[Telltails]

Are the option clauses so bad? They can work in favour of the club - re Luai's. We get him for three of a five year deal and it allows us to free up cap money to secure players that are important for building the squad while allowing Luai to look after his best interest.
Clubs are always looking at ways to offload players that no longer fit into their plans.

I’m sure it was Dennis negotiating the deal with Isaac

 

[clontarfkid]

Cant see it being reported anywhere. Close to a million is probably fine as long as it doesnt ratchet up with the cap increase. E.g. the cap goes up 20% and his contract matches

Almost every contract will ratchet up with the cap increase
If not,manager isnt doing his job

 

[GNR4LIFE]

The clauses are fine. The issue is the club not disclosing them at the time of the announcement. It’s misleading.

Money talks ..makes the beneficiary lucky somehow!

the club can’t win … they leave and it’s a disaster …they stay and it’s clearly because they paid overs …

Give the bloke a break, he’s filling in , and when he has filled in he has been fantastic, really what do u expect from 😳

Did the article even say how long ?
