OFFICIAL Jahream Bula #269

Bellend said:
Bula is a solid First Grader but not shown enough this year already to demand $900 a year.
There is 2 guys in our lower grades that deserve a crack next season if Bula moves on.

I think that's why every time I think of Bula it's:

Good, not great.

as people say: Drinkwater, Ponga, Walsh, RTS, Teddy, Turbo... all if it's their day can win a game for your team.

Bula isn't making mistakes. Solid in fullback when you really want a spark back there. That said, we are winning games.

I really don't want to disturb our team... Bula though hasn't shown so far that he is a fullback to take us to a top 4 position.

Case in point in the souffs game, Bula had a good chance to score a match winner and got out leaped by Jye Gray lol.

It’s moments like that which separate him from the elite. I still think he is the perfect fit for our team but he really should be winning those moments

Bit rough mate. He’s nabbed a few tries like that in his career. No player times that leap perfectly every time.

The whole game seems to not understand how much of a lottery a kick contest is. It happens at real speed, not in slow motion.

That's what kinda disappoints me in him.

He is edging for a better contract. OK, where is the performance to justify this.

At least with Galvin it would usually correspond with a 'good' game (albeit one we would loose, but with Galvin racking up stats.. in part due to him being a ball hog).

Us vs the knights will be a good test of Bula. No Ponga, so Fullback should be a position we have an advantage on. If Fletcher Hunt and the mullet crew outplay Bula then I think we have an answer.

No Kalyn, No Best, No Dylan.
2026 seems like a wild competition and I don't get why the knights are doing so good. With the people they have out we should win this.

Ofcourse Dom Young and Marzhew are A grade Wingers and Skelton/Tavana will be tested. Yet we should keep people from getting the ball out.

100% he has, just meaning more game defining plays. I strongly believe he has a lot higher ceiling than what he has now, I hope he shows it at our club
 
Who is actually doing the negotiating via the club? Everyone is having a crack at Bula but let's not forget that Terrell's has been left in limbo since Richardson left. Very likely not much is happening with any players till Sean M gets support and roles are defined.

We keep getting reminded what a good job SM is doing since Richo left but I'm not seeing it.

Apart from smoothing over the recent C ups and put up a few signs what else has been done, SFA so far regarding the team.

Some times you have to bite bullet say is it worth dealing with Moses and pay $900+ i can develop the talent through the club Ranks??

Please do not get me wrong i like Bula as a player but not at that costs.
 
Terrell's contract has not progressed either - I'm content to trust the process at this point given the squad is playing well and seem connected.
