Jahream Bula #269

..and last thought on Bula.our $900k 1 year option is looking reasonable
Drinkwater offers more in attack,but jeez he makes some errors..hope he signed his Dragons offer b4 last nite
Neither are within an inch of Tedesco/Walsh/Ponga/Edwards..and there are other young blokes at Manly/Raiders/Storm who offer at least as much..maybe more

Joey Manu as far as I know is signed for this season to play Yawnion but as far as I know is free to play rugby league next year, turns 30 mid year.

I wonder what sort of money and length of deal he would be willing to accept to play full back.

I think he could be a great proposition for a couple of years, but would most likely want a long deal and pretty big dollars.

I'm Gunna say with confidence the won't be putting the black white and orange on ever, the game is getting faster, he will be in his 30's , hasn't played league for a bit , great players once, probably still goes ok but the days of paying a retirement fund for old talent should say way in the revision mirror ....unless we pay peanuts with an option to upgrade if he killing it .... Still not Gunna happen because .Bulla will be locked in before long 😉

It still astounds me that player mangers pull the strings and players just go where they are told to like little children.

Kinda yes/Kinda no.

Look some in the NRL have huge brains. Heck Justin Olam has a degree in applied Physics!!

Others, well they are strugglers.

I had a friend, he was asked to pick his elective subjects at School. i.e. "do you want to do Woodwork, Industrial design and PE" or "Art, Music and drama".. He handed his form to his mother and asked her to fill it out.

Some people just have no drive or will to push for what they want.

Gonna be honest, I really don't buy the whole "Moses wants to screw over the Tigers" thing everyone on here cries about

His goal is to get his players (and himself) the most money possible - and the Tigers have been such a weak club, he's been able to use us to do so

It's not a personal thing against the Tigers. He's also done it to Manly with Seibold and half their players on ridiculous money.

With Benji running the show, winning games and a united playing group etc it will naturally become much less of an issue in the future.

Agree winning changes anything but I thought it had been confirmed (maybe by Richo) that Benji and Moses will refuse to deal with each other directly. Moses almost certainly orchestrated the Galvin's famous notebook re Benji as well as the Mitch Moses tank.

Truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Tigers have been a basketcase and their own worst enemy, but Moses has also played a role in said basketcase and seems to have some kind of beef with our current head coach.

The storm fullback is the biggest reason they’ve lost 5 straight. He’s horrible defensively . And I don’t mean just his tackling . He might get there, but that has been the big knock on a highly talented player. He hasn’t improved .
Which fullback at manly ? Are you talking about large? There’s rumours the family are coming back here . And he’s not playing fullback . Who at Canberra .stewart ? He had big raps but hasn’t kicked on .
We’ve got some gun prospects ourselves in oitman Brooke’s , attard and isedale. What’s true today isn’t always true tomorrow
