    Don't think Parra's signings have been better than ours. They were no doubt playing much better football than us at the end of last year though. Moses is an elite half and Ryles has done a great job. On another note, looking forward to all the people who were rallying against us signing NAS...

    I remember Richo saying something along the lines of if it is leaked to the press the deal is pulled I'm not really fussed about not being more fodder for journalists and agents to drive up contracts to be honest

    Jahream Bula #269

    Agreed mate. Would be great to have it sorted before pre-season starts though. Wouldn't a 2026 free of contract dramas be a nice Christmas present for Richo and Benji?

    Jahream Bula #269

    Can you blame fans for being a little jumpy? Agree there's lots to play out, but the lack of news leaves a vacuum for speculation. This isn't going to be sorted before Nov.1, when he can chat openly with other clubs. That's when the circus truely starts.

    Another potentially destabilising contract negotiation mid-season is the last thing needed for 2026. If an extension can not be sorted, or he indicates he wants out, I think he will be gone before 2026.

    I'm doubtful TS. I think he either signs the extension or is gone for 2026. The club won't want another contract debacle to a key player popping up mid season. I still think (hopeful) he will re-sign, and that Moses is just trying to maximise the contract.

    Would you be happy to start the calendar year searching for a new fullback? Because 650k aint happening

    I know its off season speculation but where there's smoke there is fire in this case imo. Especially when Isaac Moses is involved. The impact losing Bula would have on the club would be more akin to Teddy than Galvin or TDS. No matter which way it would be spun , this is the guy the club have...

    I think your last point is the difference this year, and why I am nervous. They have a strong bowling line up for Australian conditions.

    At the right price. Watched him closely in the back half of the year and didn't really impress me but as you say he probably didn't suit Ciraldo's style.

    Jake Weatherald hit 94 today, he may be close to getting the opening spot. Marnus easily walks back in though.

    If the choice is paying Bula an extra 50-100k to keep him or getting to June 30th and having to upgrade existing contract just to spend the remaining cap (which seems to be the position we have been in the last few years), I know what I would prefer.

    How would you define "true value"? Bula's value to us at this point of time is enormous. He isnt replaceable from within the club and we would be hard pressed to find a better prospect from outside. Plus a hell of a lot of time and effort has been spent on development. Bula's value to a club...

    Seems weird to recruit the coach of the comps worst attack (despite numerous attacking weapons) as attack coach

    Probably time for our Ashes sides. Ive got: Khawaja Labuschagne Green Smith Head Webster Carey Starc Lyon Hazlewood Boland Ideally Green bats lower down the order but Webster has done enough to keep his spot. Konstas can't keep his spot unfortunately

    The real challenge will be when those kinds on contracts start being offered to the best 19-20 year olds
