- Jahream Bula is happy at the Wests Tigers
- Doesn’t plan to leave like Lachlan Galvin
- Both stars are managed by Isaac Moses
Wests Tigers star Jahream Bula has declared he is happy at the joint venture NRL club – and doesn’t plan to follow Lachlan Galvin out the door.
Under contract until the end of 2027, Tigers fans feared he may leave as he shares the same agent as Galvin – Isaac Moses.
But the Fijian international, 23, addressed rumours he wants to leave.
‘I’m happy at this club – I don’t really want to talk about that stuff,’ Bula told reporters this week.
‘I don’t really listen to the outside noise. They love you when you’re up, they bash you when you’re down – but I don’t really listen to that stuff.
‘I listen to the people that have earned the right to say their opinion to me.’

Bula went onto hail the tenacity of Galvin, who has endured a testing few weeks after rejecting the club’s $5million, multi-year offer.
‘I love the kid – we’ve got a good relationship and it’s one I’ll cherish forever,’ he said.
‘Lachie showed when he played that (Sharks) game how resilient he is.’
Last month, Bula revealed he won’t ever play Origin for Queensland – despite attending high school on the Gold Coast at famed rugby league nursery Keebra Park State High School.
Bula was born in Auckland and moved to the Glitter Strip as a teenager, making him eligible for the Maroons.
But he poured cold water on any chance of him playing alongside the likes of Cameron Munster and Harry Grant against the Blues.
‘I don’t claim to be one, I don’t want to play for Queensland,’ he said.
‘My family are Koori and from NSW – they are from around the Coffs Harbour and Macksville areas – and I’ve always gone for NSW.’
On Saturday night, the ninth placed Tigers take on the Dragons at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium during Magic Round.
