Jahream Bula #269

[innsaneink]

A few people have now suggested Maka at fullback and it’s an interesting thought as it might not work, but it could be highly successful.

...or somewhere in between?

If Bula signed elsewhere I would trial Maka at FB first - he will end up on a mil a season at some point so it might as well be at FB

I would shift Bula to the wing and have Maka go to FB

Does he have the cardio in him ?

Finding a prodigy centre/wing then trying to turn him into something he is not is such a wests tigers thing to do.

Maka is only signed to the end of 2027

Does this mean Maccas has signed on for a sponsor?

I think it’s more likely Makasini will play as an edge backrower than at fullback.

We’ll likely only have him for a couple more years so hopefully that’s in the centres.

Yeah … I want him playing a position he already knows …

I think there is a perfect sponsorship opportunity. We're commonly called the Tigerpies. Why doesn't Harry's Cafe de Wheels hop on board, with the iconic tiger pies on their menu (beef pie/mashed potato/mushy peas/gravy) yum

It looks like several experts on this forum did not learn the Tedesco and Papenhuyzen lessons:
- his running is awful, let's play him at the centre, he is a has-been, a red book, swap him for Moylan or ...
- hi is too skinny, he is not ready...

If Maka sets the world on fire we would be bonkers not to sort out a Maccas cash cow with him. Could be huge. The kid is very cool & will win people over.

Maka is a centre/wing, id prefer move turuva to fullback who has atleast shown us he is capable of playing there, infact, i thought he looked more dangerous than bula

Maybe I'm remembering it different, when Turuva played fullback we lost so much attacking threat, especially down our right edge

Turuva might been a bit more damaging running the footy but the team overall looked way more clunky with him at fullback. When Bula came back our attack noticeably improved
