Sick of hearing about him honestly. It's Brooks 2.0.

A month before November 1 sure but round 4 everyone is carrying on about player movement and not the footy.

Tigers winning is one thing. Tigers that are half decent to watch is better. Those past years of 5 hitups and a over end bomb by Brooks did my head in. Not only was the team losing but they losses in such a way that a person had to get half drunk to actually watch it.

Win or lose. Good defence and play footy in attack. That's all we want.

I’m with you. Apparently all this contract talk adds to the “theatre” of rugby league…I think it creates more work (and more income) for journalists and managers. Hence the reluctance for a transfer window.

There is so much movement in the NRL with halves. Ben Hunt was in the media for ages. Then Dylan Brown, now DCE. Galvin will be in the media until he extends. Not much we can do about it.
I’m glad all the Galvin talk is in here now and not in the other threads.

I think Galvin is worth $600k x 3y. He may prove me wrong by the end of the year, but I’m going on purely his work so far. Galvin doesn’t tackle as much as Brooks but when he does he doesn’t miss as many.
Brooks has been a crucial part of the Manly attack, being involved in 39% of their tries, while Galvin’s try involvement at Tigers is a mere 8.5%.

The issue is that Brown is worth a lot less than $1.4m too. No way Galvin will sign for 600
 
Ok let’s break this down
1) we let large leave to manly because he thought he would be behind Galvin , BUT did we get Galvin to sign on NO . So why did we let him walk when he was under contract .
2) we have given Galvin a chance last year and yes he has taken it with both hands , but I don’t here him or his parents giving benji credit , all we heard was we want a release , OK it has dropped of , but only after Richo said no early release.
3) so we sign a champion in luai to help him develop, yet he still refuses to take a up grade , why is it his manager or his parents, we need to know asap , because if we offer top dollar and he says NO Iam going to market , he needs to be dropped and bring in latu and get him up to speed , just my thoughts

You're just guessing with your third point.
Nobody knows what his thoughts are or what he may have already decided.
 
$1m is the halfback going rate now regardless of what most couch critics think. There are multiple halves getting that today now.

Galvin will be getting paid no matter what he selects and it’s going to be a massive upgrade & involve many years based on potential.

Galvin if he waits will know he will have nearly all NRL clubs + PNG lined up for him. He will be in a very unique position to most players where cash and club selection is his options.
 
We're in the box seat in being able to throw an upgrade for this and next and reduce the impact on the cap in future years. Say we throw an extra 600k this year and next, that's 1.2m into the total package.

Over a 3 year extension, if we offer him $1m a year after that, other clubs will have to throw in $1.3m to match.

I'd say richo clearing the cap is to do just that. Along with some $ for TDS too. In fact, we should extend TDS first. Will show start to show the loyality in this team.

PNG Wow no way I personally believe that when PNG Start they will have the oldest roster of any club in the last 30 years if not oldest ever

It will be a retirement club and a group of has beens and never will be

PNG are building a compound for players and families to live in with schools for kids sorta like a club med


Thats going to destroy your families way of life after a year of getting locked in

Don't go out side you mite be abduct raped or killed

People have no idea what it's really like

Hard not to believe the kid when he says it’s about enjoyment and winning. It’s up to WT to provide that environment for him. He’s doing his bit.

You’re probably right, but it would bring some sobriety to the discussion, and create a more realistic starting point.
What we don’t know is what has affected his playing style during his last handful of games?
He is only 19 and most halves don’t get a handle on half play until later in their career. I believe its the toughest job in the team making your teammates look good, by creating opportunities for them.
One thing we do know though, is that like others in the same stable, their form can often appear to change during contract negotiations.
