Drinkwater can certainly attack, via ball playing or broken field running. However, his defense is questionable.
Trod on. We had 3 back to back spoons and 14th. If you arent happy playing finals after our drought then nothing will ever please you.
Throwing around numbers without validation, again.
He runs the ball hard and is a regular tackle break or line break threat because of it.
Probably a player who cant defend and has never played fullback.
Now your just being ridiculous. Bula had a good game on Sunday. We are paying a lot more for Luai to sit on the sideline and found a way to win two games without him . Its a team sport and if the coach and players back Bula whether you rate him or not means jack.
Edwards is a better fullback than Bula but I’m guessing he’s not available.
Great digging and delving for those stats. Thank you, I found them interesting and somewhat surprising. However, as we all know, stats only tell half the story. Bula's figures look good but it's the quality of contribution and their impact on the team's overall attack that matter. He is a stylish fullback, who does most things well enough but, as a lot of us maintain, his level is not elite and, therefore, not deserving of 900k.
He is not elite, ember will be elite, but is expecting elite layer money tj re-sign with us.
They must like losing.
I suspect you’d be buying a guy who will have constant issues with head knocks and other injuries.
We havent played semi finals for 15 years and had 3 consecutive spoons, yet here you are talking us up like we are the penrith panthers on the rebuild.
Any decent fullback would have made numerous tackle breaks and line breaks against an Eels team that were battered, bruised, had injured players on the field because they were running out of replacements and were physically exhausted.
No doubt but I still see flaws in his game. Is that effort sustainable? I doubt it.
Every opposing fullback is better when they play us, that’s the problem.
We were cruising up until the sin bin
