How do we unlock Koula?

Pass him the ball - Early

Extend this guy right now!! Why we haven’t offered him a new contract already is beyond me. He cannot go to market

Waiting to negotiate a second extension for Waddle to tie him up until 2031? 🤷‍♂️

Agree... He continued his great form from the semi's last season, and the game he played today by popping up on both sides was almost SOO Turboesque. I've said before he'd make a better FB than Hoppa. He has speed, power and the skill. Been our best player by far.

Has a similar sort of running style and size to Billy Slater. You give him open space and he could spot a gap. I think Hoppa is great too, but different style.

I mean he is signed until the end of 2027 meaning he can it even talk to clubs until the end of next year but sure why not throw money at a problem you do not need to solve now and could impact us in the future

I was under the option that he was off contract end of 2026. If 2027 I may have jumped the gun.

Happens to the best of us!

He’s a lot more graceful than Slater, who had a running gate that typically involved over striding; Koula is a genuine sprinter with an effortless gait.

Nowhere near his ceiling. Confidence is growing week by week.
