That's 300k fora much better player we cld now afford in our squad
Moneyball
Plus we extinguish Moses

That all makes good sense CK provided Tracey is as good, if not better than Bula. And I for one think the shine has gone off Bula somewhat .

Conner Tracey is NOT better then Bula.

Particularly Peak Bula > Tracey.

The difference is Tracey can be a Dunlop sneekers of Fullback and consistent. At least in this he is better then Bula.


IMHO if Kennedy could come from the Sharks I would offer him 500k. I see him as a better lower value option then Tracey. ...


I also feel we have some must signs;
All 3 Fianu's and maybe 1 more.
Both May's and maybe 1 more.
Makasini !!!

I want those players locked up first before Bula. Makasini has brought over 900k of value to the team in only a few games.
 
I suspect Bula is playing exactly how Benji wants him to. Shoring up the middle when on the line, rather than sliding and providing cover. Also directing the defence from the back, this is a skill he has learnt under Benji.

Bula is always lurking around in attack, this is something he was criticised in the past for not doing. If Benji wants him then I hope he re-signs long term.
 
As righteous as Bula portrays himself to be he’s signed with the objective NRL devil (Moses) not long after the Galvin debacle upended our season. Speaks volumes for his character really which is what we’re apparently scrutinising lately. I think Benji’s learnt from last years debacle so the negotiations on our part are probably in good hands whichever way they go

Is Gus Gould still interested in Bula ? Is he “still” a good judge of NRL horse flesh? Old mate I was responding too reckons Bula is heading to the Dogs 🤔

Does your NRL mate think we should come to the party and offer him 900k for 5 years ?

is your mate Gus Gould offering anything ? He brushed Purdue looks like… you must be a better judge of NRL horse flesh right? Are you making $1.5 Mil a year like he is ?
 
As far as Bula and other signings are concerned , I reckon we first need to sign up Makasini to an extended contract at fair money , and he wants to play for WT’s ; Makasini’s a winger, he’s playing out of position at the moment in the centres and trying his hardest every game there. I keep thinking of the way he ran over the top of Dylan Edwards in the trial when he was playing on the wing, most of us on the forum were raving about him after that trial game. The bloke could be anything !! Still only 18, was in high school last year!! Let’s not forget this. That’s the bloke who should be our priority!! You build a team around these young players!! I’m sure forum members would be very interested in Jye Gray if he was available, he was a standout in the game against us the other week,but he has committed to Souths ( and really wants to play for Rabbitohs which is exactly what we want with our players, wanting to play for us!!) on an extended contract on less money than Bula’s manager wants from us. Perspective is everything here. Bula isn’t worth 900k,,the bloke’s defence is average at best, just like Stefano wasn’t worth the silly money being thrown around at the time from our club, we landed a much better call round player in Terrell May!. Benji will make the right moves here, he’s really settling into his role; I can’t wait to see. Taylan May back in the centres and Makasini back to his best position at winger. MoneyBall is a good read, we can’t afford to be mucked around by Isaac Moses here pushing silly figures at our club.

You’re NRL mate must be making up as he goes along because the bulldogs are not currently allowed to make any offer

Tell that to Gould who had been courting Galvin allegedly for 18 months
Gus runs the Nrl..so maybe it's immaterial
 
center winger fullback have been missing for many a try ,an its Madison covering, to scared to tackle the hip n put them out - bula is nowhere- not at 900

Agree that we need to sign him on a long term deal asap, however he's not a winger, despite his brilliant pre-season form on the wing. He will be a devastating centre in the mould of a Meninga, Lawrence, or even Renouf.

The elephant in the room for us is Bula and his current manager.
