That might be the give away.

Nope... Wrong.

The rumour is Galvin is taking out an AVO against some of the people on the West Tigers Forum!! Just a rumour!!

That will be fact if he signs for another club

There will be a lot of happy campers on here if it happens, end all the speculation even better.

When I walk past supporters wearing tigers gear on the street I always say "up the tigers" and have a quick chat. Let me tell you it's not just members on this forum that are reluctant to get excited about the season ahead. All the losing has really affected supporter's psyche.

Three finals series in twenty five years will do that. We need to be a consistent finals side to really say we have turned the ship around. No point having one outlying season like the Warriors had in 23. Just getting into a position where we can be regular finals contenders like the Sharks or Raiders. Even the Knights. Their squad is bog average. Take away Ponga and they have nothing, but they get there. There’s no excuse for us.

Scar tissue takes a long time to fade mate, wins can have an effect like a healing oil.

People upset with signings like Falls and Hope, don't seem to understand we had players like Ryan and Valevatu playing in the spine last year.
Falls is better for our cup squad than Sullivan.

Falls was very good for Wynnum last year in the Qld Cup

That leaves room to maneuver😁

Galvin signing would be brilliant pre-season news. I'd hate for it to drag through the year. Really disruptive.

Nope...wrong.
They were rumours. Someone heard from someone else etc...
The theories are suggestions - also part of this thread.
There is no rule that any of the signings, suggestions or rumours put out into this thread have to be positive.

Gutho was broken down, and they have Iongi now. The coach is an unknown. They could really go either this year. To call them a sinking ship is uninformed. And this is coming someone who hates that club.

Are they stronger than last year though?
The coach might be the best ever needs time before anyone can judge, I just think they are weaker than last year and if Brown or Moses leaves I can't see them being a destination club.

Who knows. Games aren’t won on paper. A lot will come down to how much chop Ryles is.

We've all been done this road before, only this time we have reno'd the squad have the best ceo in the business and have fingers crossed finally a fully independant and competent boardroom.
Only question is still on Benji but apart from that we should be moving in the right direction.

Very true. Like anything only time will tell.

If we were coming into the season with an established coach, I think enthusiasm would be at an all time high.

I wear my Tigers cap everyday i work up here at the goldy airport and always get a go tigers from someone 👍

 

[Lestronge]

So what’s the rumours around Galvin ?
My guess is , the kid hates losing , so if we shit the bed the next season or 2 , we won’t just lose Galvin , but Luai and anyone else who has potential .
Whether the eels or roosters , it will matter little .
If we win , and create a winning culture than only the most single minded players or ones deemed surplus to need will move on . At least for the first contract renewal .
Winning fixes everything , from money to media , to player rentention to recruitment etc .
and if we don’t win ? Well what’s the fuss about ? Because if we don’t win then doesn’t that mean that these players arnt as good as we think they are , thereby , needing different players anyway ?

I also give people a “go the Tigers” when see them wearing a hat or shirt. Plenty of WTs supporters when I walk through Circular Quay or Manly Beach. Surprising lots of WTs fans on the Northern Beaches for some reason. Seems to be a lot of support out there in general for a team that has been down the bottom of the ladder for such a long time. Imagine if what it would be like we were a good side.

I would take a punt back on Valynce Te Whare to fill our center depth.
He is looking fit and killing it in the Japan Rugby scence.
