Can't believe this talk about putting Galvin in the forwards since we have been trying for almost 20 years to put together a backline.

Agree

The kid wants to play 6

He doesn’t have the frame for 13 bc he’s too young.

He would be wasted as an Isiah yeoh who just digs into the line

He would probably leave if he was forced to play in the middle bc it would mean more tackling and possibly shorten his career

Like - everyone needs to stop trying to be a tim sheens !

Hastings wanted to play 7 and not lock so he left and the knights make the finals lol.

Leave the kid in the halves where he will be happy and is the most effective

If we need a lock - go and buy one!

And if latu wants to leave bc he can’t get a slot then he leaves

I think we could put latu in the centers like matt burton was at Penrith and in 3 yrs time - we can sell luai to someone else for his last two years and have galvin and latu as the halves

We only needed luai for 3/4 yrs

We got stitched up on the 5 th year and we can move him on if the juniors are better at that time

Yes but we need a lock, not a hooker or centre. Unless you are saying lock is a spine position?

Secondly, these kids need to play where they will stay at the club. Pushing Fainu to centre, he may look for half opportunities at other clubs.

Well, as long as he is playing first grade, in a winning team, with his mates then they will all stay for a little while at least..

Interesting to see Shaun Blore can't make the Storm starting 17 for a third week yet Kane Bradley cam.

Kane has killed it in preseason, one if the best trainers. Has moved from wing to the backrow - very deserved spot.

Blore metrics are improving in training probably 2-4 weeks away from the standards they have which says abit about Wests Tigers training.

Regardless if Blore was here he would be starting 17 every week.

Sorry mate, but for a player that can command $700k+ as a half, they are not going to want to take $500k as a centre.

In any case, we need to find a way to have both Fainu and Galvin on the field and around the ball.

Sounds like you’ve already picked a favourite out of Latu and Galvin. No double standards in that post.

Latu will force his way in somewhere once he's back.

Bud will be lucky to see out the season in my opinion.

Hooked after 45 odd minutes in the first game, yikes.
If he doesn't perform off the bench this Saturday
& Latu gets through KOE unscathed, Bud will be hard
pressed 2 get that 14 jersey back off of young Latu
provided he got a look in. If not it'll probably be Jake

NSW cup player of the year for magpies, and we send him on his way.
Wasn’t given enough game time, and when he was in those three games, he played good. Haven’t seen anyone hit holes the way he does for the tigers for a while

Was then replaced by Justin Olam, a proven winner…

Where’s the problem?
