I looked to get tickets for the upcoming games, so went on Ticketek site. Left to right (or top to bottom) images show blue available sections/seats at (1) vs Knights at Campbelltown, (2) vs Broncos at Campbelltown, (3) vs Raiders at Leichhardt. It is pretty interesting and disappointing at...

I’m not confident. But Knights at Campbelltown always takes me back to that great day in 2009 when Marshall skipped across the field and through a gap to set up Ryan for the winning try. I was sitting right near that sideline. Was prime Benji and it was breathtaking.

They are obviously going to go right to Luke’s absent wing. Let’s see if Tigers and Bula wise up.

Parra defense today so far is pretty good to be fair.

geez that’s poor defending.

Yep me too. Sadly though. I really wanted to take the family. Perfect day for it too.

I actually think there’s a way to make this work without overcomplicating it. We still need a genuine 7, and if Madden proves in the next few weeks he can be that guy, then he has to own the role. Control the tempo, be on both sides and take full responsibility for the kicking game. Where it...

I was one of those who thought our team won’t go anywhere with players like Twal. Honestly, after years of plodding (let’s call it) I didn’t think he had it in him. But how he has turned it around this year. OMG. I am thrilled for him and happily serving myself a big ol helping of humble pie...

For years, those last 5-10 before halftime have been our undoing…not so this year. Been the opposite. Terrific defense and resilience shown tonight. And the confidence snd composure to go on with it. Exemplified by Madden, through his control and kicking game. That deft kick on the third...

Bula played very well tonight. Can’t fault him on that performance. Hope it continues.

Both would be next level signings. Tigers need to continue targeting star talent, like we did with Luai. They improve our play, give us leadership, stature and legitimate fear factor. We need a bonafide centre, halfback and fullback. One more quality prop/lock. A smattering of top and second...

He has shown glimpses in that period. But not enough to convince most that he is anything but a punt play. And patience is wearing thin. FWIW, I wouldn’t go dropping him or anything, but I don’t think we are a better team with him in particular, ie over almost any other fullback. As such, if we...

My issue with the Laurie/Mbye comparison isn't memory - it's relevance. We never rated those guys, so they're a low bar. IMO the gap between Bula and the better fullbacks right now in overall play is bigger than the gap between Bula and that group. That's the concern. And look, I'll take your...

Totally agree with this. Bula is fast and athletic, no doubt. But it's his 4th season and he still doesn't chime into the attack enough, doesn't give us another option to confuse defences, and can't be relied upon under the high ball. Looking the part is one thing, actually playing it is another.

Oof! Luai being out makes our backline look so pedestrian.

Sorry but you cannot lump everyone together. I like Bula and I think he could be special. But he is nowhere near the finished product. My view is exactly the same as I posted last year (before the contract shenanigans). Right now he sits toward the lower end when you rank NRL starting...

Fantastic effort today. Yes, the Cowboys were bad. But we still had to beat them, which he haven't done in a while. And we dominated, which is rare. A bit concerned about the times we let them get a roll-on. And the wings regularly looked outnumbered. Though AD and Luai were exceptional in...

Wow. The attack is scintillating

Not quite. The cap rationale makes sense. I still don’t see the logic in Attard’s “nil drop off” relative to a 24 year old Bula who hasn’t peaked. The tone didn’t help. I’ll leave it there.

I’m confused by your post. What level are you saying Bula is at? Then you said “I think Attard, with a 1-year apprenticeship under his belt this year, will have a negligible or nil drop off in skills compared to Bula.” Bula just turned 24… What are you saying?
