OFFICIAL Jahream Bula #269
- Thread starter TillLindemann
- Start date
Bula is our most naturally gifted player - and the best defensive fullback at WT or either of the original JV foundation clubs since Gary Jack!!
My firm opinion is on the record!!
Feel free to keep receipts
PS - Nathan Cleary is overrrated and can't win without Jarome (in case you missed that one)!
you maybe right about Bula if moses doesn't sell his soul to the highest bidder i don't collect receipts ,its a shit of a game to play PS to much info ,i don't care about your fascination with the Riff , or are you building a case to justify his none selection in the SOO
Nor do I - but I know good footballers from shit ones....
Have to be careful here, that’s how Raiders lost Fogarty. They chose not to take the option out and offer a new 2 year deal. (Though apparently the option was for significantly more). Apparently Fogarty has his side of the mutual option at the end of the year.
I guess the point is, people are saying can’t talk until Nov 1 26. Well these options are usually taken up prior to round 6 or 7 in the last contracted season meaning this talk could fire up over the off-season.
We’ll see I guess, I was pleased to see Bula burn Sloan in full flight. He is deceptively quick and probably up there with the quicks of the game though he doesn’t look as quick as those others, Sloan, Hammer, Fox.

Probably close to his best game for us. He’s a glider with that long stride. Not lightening off the mark but fast over distance. He is becoming tougher and more resilient as well

Great player who is still developing. Very fair to mention or even criticise any player's mistakes, but the fact there is a debate about him every week is ludicrous.
I reckon over 100m Tyrell Sloan would of run down more than 99% of players for that halftime try last night. However, Sloan gave up after not even 30m chasing Bula.
Staines probably would of scored, Turuva maybe. But Doueihi/Naden/Skelton/Galvin/Toa would not of gone the distance. Speed is a magical thing.

Bula still need strong work in his defence. His efforts this season are poor, he’s great on defusing the bomb. But positional play are really poor, short and deep kicks and cover tackling are all poor. Especially against Homes on the weekend he had all the time in the world to get to him, except he slowly moved over allowing Holmes to get to the try line and power over. He should have met him further up field and the try would not have been scored. But there’s several instances where this has happened Reynolds chip chase, etc.
What are u doing hodgo that’s your role isn’t it??

Hope the option is to change to another manager.

So you think they are so good that they do not have any flaws in their game, that there is something wrong with commenting on facets of their game that require attention to make them even better players.
I'm not talking about character assassinations, I'm talking about honest and justified comments and criticisms.
I'd say that both Bulla and Pole are around the 50 - 50+ game level which I believe has them at the established NRL player level, no longer complete rookies to my way of thinking, I can't see either of them playing any lower than NRL level barring lay offs due to injury or severe form drops.
In other words you expect them to be in the top 13-17 when it is announced every week.
Love both these guys but is there anything wrong in me saying that Pole needs to work on his ball security and both need to work on their defence.
Both players consistently receive raps in the sporting media but then so does Lachlan Galvin which I don't think is the best thing in the case of Lachan because the media fail to be critical or point out the flaws in his game, building him up to a level that he in reality is yet to achieve.
I see nothing wrong in the fans who have a vested interest and passion for their club pointing out deficiencies and areas requiring improvement, particularly when those are glaringly obvious and would benefit both player and team if they were remedied.

Well that went well. 🤣
That’s a good call actually. They were saying Will Kennedy is a bit like the Peach, I’d also say he has a bit of early year Inglis about him. Before he put on plenty of kilos to play 5/8.
Look at the ladder...
