Penrith shocker as in form winger withdrawn late due to ‘coach’s decision’​

Not like Ivan to get narky hahaha

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

Maybe we can get Turuva across immediately. That would be something

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Is he Fijian heritage?

He’s API’s cousin.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Another great players for you guys; he’ll always give you 100% and do it with a lovely smile on his face. Building nicely for 2025.

Disappointed we couldn’t keep him, but can’t keep them all (and we seem to have valued May higher than him; go figure!!).

Got some cash now to sign Stefano when he decides not to exercise his option!!

I think Cleary was being absolutely genuine on this one. He said Turuva will be back next week.

He's going to force Bula to England. He'll be your 1

This is the question. Where would Bulla be positioned 1-17as a fullback in the NRL admittedly in a tough environment but even so..He’d have to be in the bottom somewhere. Has anyone been worse. Has he done anything. Simple questions

Axed Panthers star’s message to Cleary;

And after winning Dally M Rookie of the Year in 2023, Sunia Turuva found himself in reserve grade for the first time this season. Turuva was dropped to 18th man in Round 18 and again for last Thursday’s clash with the Storm. The 21-year-old lined up for the Panthers’ Cup side on Sunday and finished with four tackle busts and 107 running metres.

 

[Someone2]

you'd think he should be making close to 300m in reserve grade

fox mustn’t have anything else to write about 100meters is nothing

Good questions.

Is he better than:-

Will Kennedy, Sloan, Keano Kini, Jye Gray, Kaeo Weekes & Connor Tracy.

He has something like average running metres of 160 in a pretty ordinary team.

I like him but I view him more as a younger not as good yet version of Dylan Edwards. Will he progress to that level ? I don't know.

He has done some good things. He has scored 10 tries for us and he has 6 try assists.

I don’t know is my answer too..in most cases Bulla needs momentum to shine, Edward's doesn’t ..

 

[Chins get the wins]

Bula is a good prospect but Dyl Edwards is who is because he's the fittest player the ever play this sport. That can't really be replicated

 

[Tiger05]

Bula has that though. That is his best trait. Not at the same level but maybe at some point in the future.

 

[Tiger05]

True but the thing is Edwards is 28. Bula is 22.

It'll be interesting how it all pans out.

This is my main concern with Benji. Can he make the right decisions to turn us into a competitive team. Do you play Bula or Turuva at fullback ? Where do you play Turuva ? Does he slot onto the wing, centre or fullback ?

I don't know.

Galvin has looked great but how good will Latu be ?

Benji was right across the signings of Sullivan, Klemmer and Bateman as well. They all haven't delivered value for money.

No one does. The closest is Gutho I guess and he's many levels behind

Theres more to Edward’s than just being super fit ..that’s just a cliche now

I’d put Bula above all named other than Kini, and I’ll go on to say on his current path Bula will be better. It could be argued that some of the named players are better by experience, but Bula is a proper talent, I have been constructively critical of him but I still rate him as a talent with heaps of upside, it would be a shame for tigers to lose him

But you’re 100% correct he would still be behind Walsh, Latrell(even at fullback) Edward’s, Paps (barring fitness) Edwards, Drinkwater, Ponga, Gutherson (although he is hampered playing in a shit side), Turbo, Teddy, Hammer
