Also, the Koula - Olacalatu combo would be good to see in all it's glory on Sunday.

Koula will be left side. Mentioned by Seibs during the off season and all the photos have shown Koula on the left.
Perfect when Schu plays. Imagine Koula's speed catching those luvely Schu passes - try!!

Especially those No Look passes
I wonder if they will (Dr) pepper (Pepsi) Ko(u)la this week?
Just as long as they all stay off the Coke this week I’ll be happy.
Disappointed that A&W didn’t make the bench and is only a reserve.

Koula didn't seem to click outside dce and ola last year. Hoping he can get more involved outside brooks and burbo/schu.
Reuben had a blinder when he played right centre inside saab last year.
Did you notice all of Schu's no look passes hit the mark when they are set plays. Turbo received some beauties last year.
It's when he is trying to make something happen out of nothing where he should cut them down a bit.
Ola's sneaky onehanded offloads in traffic to a backing up flying Koula proved to be lethal for us, looking for this play again on Sunday, this really would be something to savour.
Dont see enough of Olas offloads. I hope its part of his game weve worked on. He could be devastating with a consistently good offload. We lack a bit of second phase play at times.

I watched that game last night. Garrick killed it at right center!

Koula will be playing left side this season and Garrick on the right.

Presume this was the game against the Titans . Don "t recall Garrick doing that much special in attack but had to be pleasing that his defence measured up well ,in contrast to some of his defensive efforts at full back
Anyway can only hopefully get better with his all round game there , quite a gifted open field runner in many respects ,
Certainly a different playing style to Parker and Harper but every chance to do well there and with the additional pace factor a major plus
Could've been the mauling of the Phins.

just recall Koula being one centre against the Phins and presume the other one Parker but not totally sure on that
40 nil
It's only a game ...

good to have some more detail .
Main recollections from that game were Turbo"s influential plays and Koula "s runaway try off Sam Fainu .
Some ordinary Phins defence but some very enterprising play by Manly to indicate the ability in attack , even Shu looked goof from some less pressure defence
As i said , was more pleased with Garrick "s solid tackling against the Titans at centre but certainly good to see some nice touches from him in attack in the Phins game
And hopefully, Ola will be picking and choosing who to set up. Going on last season it's gota be Koula...Also, welcome to the fold SMB.
