Run Koula Run

[Rocky]

We have no real centres now, who you gunna out in place of koula?

Turbo

t1 and t2 to center (if we have t have turbo at all)

Yep - backline depth is not our issue (for now)

 

[mickqld]

Koula needs to be fullback. The guy is a weapon. Turbo and Jurbo are finished I would not be offering them any extensions.

 

[madmax]

I’ve been saying it for ages…..Koula is our best player no matter what position he plays! I really fear R360 will come knocking.

Mad not to.
Imagine Koula at Melbourne.
He would be an immortal

 

[Rocky]

Look at what Weekes has done this year - and we know Koula is better than him.

 

[Disco]

I'd argue our player of the year.

Has really stepped forward this year which was not unexpected.

 

[LeonardCohen]

I’d play him at fullback because I don’t want to lose him to a team that’s looking to pay top dollar for a genuine 1. Upgrade his deal and pay Tom a centres salary and play him there for the rest of his career. I’d play Hoppa on the wing.

Him or TKO

You must be a better judge than me.

I would say exactly what you said but replace unexpected with expected.

But then, my bad judgement means I get to enjoy being pleasantly surprised.

 

[manly al]

Certainly if both Turbo and Lehi were unavailable , try Koula at one but hopeful long term position at Manly in the centres so may as well continue there
Not sure with season 27 as an option in his favor has him open to other options after Nov the i st but hopefully not and more time for Manly to have him as the highest priority re signing and ideally long term and the means to manage it with more coin

 

[Uber Eagle 72]

I love how Koula’s game has progressed this year. I do however think that the presence of Turbo in the minds of opponents defence lines has given him more space to do his thing. I think the 2nd try he scored last night is a good example of this.

I think generally speaking players take a step forward between 50-100 NRL games.

You get that confidence that not only do you belong but You can start to impose yourself.

A rare breed quicker than that but most need a few seasons.

Tolu aint the finished article yet either, still more to come.

 

[manlyfan76]

Crazy good run in broken play to score at the start of the game.
Then sees no early ball for the next 38 minutes.

Same as last game.

Our dumb halves are responsible for that!

Even under 7s know if your gun player is on fire keep feeding it to him.

 

[germaneagle]

Burbo and Waddel are total duds but lets keep giving them the ball.

 

[mickqld]

Koula needs to go to fullback now and in the future. Lehi is too light and Turbo is done. As for centres we better find some because we have none.

 

[Top End Eagle]

Koula is the future at full back he could be just like Tedesco with his footwork and acceleration.

Lehi is also a great fullback, but I think he is good on the wing for now.

 

[KaZa]

Really showing his free running. Been saying for years hes a fullback. Wasted out there. Imagine his kick returns
