LIVE GAME Round 3 versus Souths

[glebe tiger]

Turning point 8 or so mins out middle of field that incorrect call for dropped ball that South's knocked on for some reason went against us. They scored their final try after that set.

I remember Walters on Fox commentary say clearly South's got very lucky call there and it whacked us. They scored next set and it was over.

Most NRL fullbacks are energiser bunnies, just not ours.
To think someone like Trai Fuller is currently not even getting NRL game time.

so by what you have commented of late, now the club should stop entertaining Bula's wanting price or taking up their option ,hope Bula doesn't take his.???
As he is dropping 20-30 grand a week on his potential ,for potential earnings

Two games perfectly set up for Bula to show us his brilliance and he was not able to.
A packed Leichhardt Oval with us having plenty of possession and the Ciwboys under fatigue.
Then against the Rabbitohs with the game in the balance for much of the second half and again us dominating field possession and ball possession causing plenty of fatigue in the Rabbitohs defence, yet very minimal impact.
It’s either we have no idea how to get the best out of him or he is just not near as good as some think he is.
Either way there is not near enough upside to warrant extending him at 900k for one more season or longer on what is currently being shown.

True that ,but you seem to have backed right of your bullish stance that the club/his management seeked time to justify eithers price tag.
Telling us to chill, you where in the know .
Now your going with the flow, rolling over for a tummy rub ,legs in air

The club is absolutely giving him more time to prove his value.
If it was up to me I would be making other plans now before we miss out.
Will he come out and blitz it and help win us the game on Friday night in NZ ?
I highly doubt it, but stranger things have happened.

If dogs really want him, they should all sort it asap ,and get value in return ,
Richo rolled over to easy letting galvin n tds go like that,
Im a long suffering fan from the Magpie side , of the jv.
But no longer will team results or club decisions ruin my day 2 day fun
Dogs want Bula ?- we need Tracey Xerri , surely that can be juggled , Gus is the master manipulator

I reckon there's more chance of Bula yanking a leprechaun out of his arse than having a blinder next game.

I watched the game on Sat night and had reasonable hopes of getting the points against Souths...As most of you on here know that I call a spade a spade and Iam a True tiger in every sense of the game..I cast my opinion on what I see,and what I did see is that our young up and coming stars such as Makasini need a lot more help from our more experienced stars..I note that JL and AD are injured and T May is out,however the young guys were out played by Mitchell,Walker and co.who have many,many NRL games under their belts..
Am I disappointed with the loss,yes but the younger guys will benefit greatly from the experience.Once our boys develop even further during this season,they will be a team to reckon with,we just need to keep them together and let Benji and co do their job...It's only early days and I can hear the Tiger roar already ...God bless you guys and the team..❤️👍🐅

I hate to say it but he schooled our fullback.

If our wannabe $1million fullback bothered to back up one of the breaks we made we win that game easily . He is literally no where to be seen . Go watch some tape of Hodgson and see how he hung around the middle and was there for every break.
