But we are not a one man team. There can only be 1 Benji. Point taken. Its a great start You don't need a name.

The Jedi has spoken. Great point.

It’s actually a very good point. It may not even be in just straight out cash, could be given to him in a form of an investment.
I heard with interest that Nathan bought the family home off Ivan. What really are the chances that Ivan was given a bigger salary than Nathan as coach to begin with. Very likely I say.

Now we talking. Starting to think. We don't know anything.

What about Gus and the Bullcats, they are stock piling panthers

I think travel will stop that. Nightmare of a drive Penrith to Belmore.

Luai offered 2 year contract at Panthers . If I were him. Well. If you were him.... what would you do?

And moneywise for the 2 years its 1.7 ml
$850.000 a season, and weve offered well above the million mark per season and I think 4 or 5 year contract,

Make him get the train to Burwood then jog down Burwood Road to the COE. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Lee may have to give Samuela a lift to training:

Samuela Fainu committed seven speeding offences and three counts of driving while disqualified or suspended in the short few years he’s spent behind the wheel, Sydney’s Downing Centre District Court was told on Tuesday.

Trifecta ..
Slammed
A Fainu brother
Soon to be a Tigers player

Something tells me we'll be seeing a lot more articles about this family over the next decade.

Hopefully in the Sports section.

If I was offered 400k a year more somewhere else I’d push over my grandmother to sign the papers. He’s won three premierships, time to cash in.

Would you really push her over Y?

 

[Yossarian]

Would you really push her over Y?

It’s hyperbole for impact. All my grandparents are deader than Esan’s NRL prospects.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Really. You didn't see the game on the weekend?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Love that word - Hyperbole. Thank You Y

Bula is a work in progress for sure but he’s way beyond the promising stage for me
His defensive plays this year show me he’s a smart footballer not just a gifted athlete
International experience, a full off season and hopefully a better performing team in front of him, I’m thinking he’ll lift considerably on what we’ve already seen

Get him with the guru sprint trainer. Bula puts on an extra metre or so in the 100, then he’s a real handful! Speed is invaluable.

Foxsports saying Samuela Fainu signed a 4 million dollar deal. Just taking the piss now 🤣

Haven’t got a spoon in my trophy cabinet… I’m off to the Tigers bro!!

 

[KCtiger]

Well he’s just bought a house directly opposite the Leagues club over the river at Leonay so there is not just money involved.
I’m sure he and his wife have lots of friends in the Penrith region.
A lot of driving to and from Concord.
I’ll take a punt and say he won’t leave the Panthers.

Players like blore still live out in Penrith and come in each day luai could easy do it

Isn’t Blore supposedly moving on ? Maybe got sick of the drive !

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Either side of the sideline....big difference

Keep it on the field

Off the field is important to Ink. Maybe more important. It will translate to on the field. Baby steps.

Wasn't too long ago Daine Lauries' deficiencies at Fullback couldn't be pointed out without getting howled down with many of the same justifications I'm seeing for Bula now....

Yes agreed. I was shouting for this for him when most were licking his nuts for getting club player of the year in 21.

I like Bula, Good kid with infinite potential....
But he's a million miles from where we need him to be.
And unlike most other young kids coming into grade at other clubs
- He'll have no where to hide at WT's,
Very little back up - On the park, and should he need a spell from Firsts like all kids do...
and, not many blokes to help him through the next 2 years.

Yep, he needs guidance and management to continue developing. The things he does well are great.

Reece Walsh had Darius Boyd help him out this year, great move from the Bronx. It would be good if we good have Brett Hodgson assist Bula. Anyone who says Bula move to centres has rocks in their head
