Luke Laulilii #290

[HowDugWT]

A couple years ago when he debuted I thought he was the future . Since then we have seen Makasini , May , Skelton all be in front of him in the depth charts .
I think he will sneakily be the round 1 fullback for the bears in 27 . Otherwise he’s too small for the wing . But he’s a gun . One of the few players to leave here where there’s simply no hard feelings . He would have wasted his career in cup if he stayed loyal .
On a different note i think Heath Mason is the last of that Matt’s winning team to still be at the tigers …

Will Craig ....
I think Harry Delaney was on a cup contract last year ... I THINK

Notable Outs: K.Laulili*, L Laulili, Galvin, Waqa, Da Silva, Miller and Keppie

I think he will be a good player. He has the work rate and courage to be a big metre eater. High ball and reading defence have been an issue which he will probably work out over time.

Normally we would be up in arms losing a talented young player like this. The fact we can cover him pretty easily and it not be a big loss is a good sign that our squad is in decent order.

Best of luck to him in Perth. Wish him all the best.

He’s got potential but ultimately probably wouldn’t play first grade here, so I can’t fault him for moving for a betterment opportunity, and if it came between him and mak I’m choosing Mak everyday

Good move for him. Didn’t have much of a future here.

I don’t see his nrl future like others do.
But good on him for the deal.

Be interesting how much game time at NRL level he gets this year as felt he was promoted well before he should’ve.

I think he's a goer, same as Kitt.
They're just on the shorter side.

Good luck to them.
Sounds like they're doing what's best for their careers.

Agree he doesn’t lack effort.
His reads, leap and hands are more an issue.

He just seems like a really good bloke. The writing was probably on the wall when we signed that panthers fullback.. it could also be an indicator that the Bula deal is close?

Really like the kid - could go either way. Would have liked to see him stay, but understandable decision on his part.

Hope he makes it.

I always thought he looked quite small when seeing him live.

Do we think the same as Trey Fuller......

 

[happy_tiger]

I feel it was a choice between him or Makasini and I truly believe the latter has a higher ceiling, good on him for trying his luck over there

Makasini does have a higher ceiling ....about 10 inch higher

Yes and a reason Fuller is almost 29 and has played 17 games of nrl
