Agree with Bulas effort here...he was immense the other save our bacon.a few times single handedly
I reckon there is something to be said for having certainty. We’ve seen Twal, Douihei, Taylan and now Bula really improve once their futures were sorted.
I actually don't think he is nonchalant, just controlled. Yes Reece Walsh is a ball of energy and is all over the place, yet he can have some almighty stinkers and if he was playing for a team like the Tigers that struggle to defend errors than he is probably viewed in a completely different light. Bula plays more within himself and limits the errors as I believe that is the remit from Benji, don't chance your arm or do anything stupid. If the team's defense improves, than perhaps you will see more from him and our other players. What i have noticed is they are very conservative in attack, whereas Titans were more willing to chance their arm and it mainly came off for them last night.
Fair call but I'm referring more to his kick returns. He doesn't run with much vigour. I know he doesn't want to risk making a mistake running into a set line but he just tries to step one defender and then surrends on the next. I'd love for him to take on the line every now and then either with speed, power or footwork.
I have said a few times now, he needs to build up his core strength, he struggles to break tackles even if its marginal contact...maybe a focus area for next off-season.
