A significant coup for the Tigers as the struggling club signs one of the NRL’s best young players.
The Wests Tigers’ off-season has been greatly aided by the signing of rising gun Jahream Bula to a long-term agreement with the struggling club.
Bula has been one of the Tigers’ bright spots since making his NRL debut this season, and he just inked a two-year deal to stay with the club until 2027.
The Tigers’ player of the year was voted by his teammates, and he was also named rookie of the year. He is a strong contender for Dally M Rookie of the Year.
“I want to stay here as long as I can,” Bula said in a statement released by the club on Wednesday.
“This opportunity was given to me by the club, and I would not be in this position without them.”
“I want to hopefully win a championship here one day, that’s my goal.”
Incoming Wests Tigers head coach Benji Marshall stated that the team is “super excited” to secure Bula’s long-term commitment.
“He has been an exciting young talent and proven his toughness in first grade in his debut season,” he stated.

Bula scored five tries in 18 games in his rookie season, which began in week eight against the Manly Sea Eagles.
