The Mole also reporting Galvin wants to leave as the reason he resigned for 3 years was Sheens and McDonnell who have been punted. Other clubs are circling…

Seriously, this sounds like A-grade horse manure. Kid would barely know Tim Sheens. He may be talented but he’s already coming across as extremely high maintenance. I’m not saying him personally necessarily, could be his manager, but seriously what teenage kid with zero senior football experience or even a game in Flegg wants out because a geriatric coach and a recruiting guy get moved on? That’s ridiculous. If this is a manager thing, club needs to dig in for once.

Pole will need to get paid. Kit L will be coming in. Blore is in the mix. Faagutu might come in as well.

I don't agree with letting Seyfarth go. Twal on top of that seems absolute stupidity to me.

The big issue is though Klemmer and Stef are on big dollars.

Stefano is only on 270k unless he got a massive upgrade they haven’t announced

even in the 80s players could tell that the jersey made them feel ‘themselves’.

Somehow at Wests we worry more about selling jersey sales than we do continuity.

Yet Ben Darwin’s (Professional Sports Analytics business) work on the data behind performance, has already made the case that on-field results suffer when you change things like jerseys

Especially when they're wearing jerseys made by steedan

Plus if he signed for 3yrs he obviously signed knowing Benji would be coach by the time he was going to be close to ready to play NRL

Benji has just taken over 1yr earlier

He was friends with Sheens. He hasn't fed Mole
in years the vindictive shit. His source is
'Someone close to the family' haha. Such
a loser. Lachie has come out saying he is
looking forward to going into the top 30 and
pre-season training just yesterday. Facts

The source may be disgruntled clubs that are upset the WTs got under their guards and re-signed one of our junors.

Or probably just some random instigating.
How would you verify the source anyway...
Do they send him pics from a night out and
say 'see, look, I'm close to the family' lmao.
Mole has been a joke for a long time now...
He's just a fan masquerading as a journo

I believe his manager is Moses, so yeah pretty likely this is a manager thing.
 
Would be shattered if Twal got moved on, love the way he plays. He reminds me a bit of Matt Scott. Real meat and veg type operator. Twal has never really wound up on his runs but he's becoming stronger on both sides of the footy year on year, you can see by age 30 he's going to be hitting his prime.
But, I can also see the logic. Benji wants to throw the footy around and Twal doesn't suit that mould but these young dynamic forwards do, more dynamic, able to present to footy and catch and pass.
Not saying I think Benji's vision is going to work out, but you can't say he's not putting all his chips in.

Our recruitment is terrible. Keep letting players go with no one to replace them. Last round shows what happens when you put a bunch of kids up against seasoned NRL players.

Being honest that Manly team was massively down on troops and gave us a hiding.

Agree. We have a heap of kids so should be hanging onto all of our solid experienced first graders, and recruiting more players with 100+ NRL game experience around them.

Twal does his job well and I don't think he's on massive money. It's weird.
