100% mate. The knights win will mean nothing if we don't beat parra next week.

How you going mate, did you enjoy the win, Parra at the moment is in a bad place if we are trying to make a run for the 8 we need to put them away.

When Latu is back. Galvin to the bench, Latu in the halves. If he wanted to stay he would. Bugger him don't spend one more second of N.R.L game time developing him for another team. Get Latu right and get him in, we have to do what's best for the team after all. Developing Latu is what's best for the team in the long term.

I don't think Benji is going to bench Galvin results to him and us as a club is too important atm. I do see Latu getting more of a shot if he can get ontop of his own injuries, and if Galvin starts to unsettle the team with his release rubbish and form dips he more droppable now.

I like Galvin and although he is frustrating at times you can see his potential, but im not paying through the nose Dylan Brown style to keep him. We'll unbalance our cap and thats the last thing we need.

Apparently Galvin has told the WT to get f*** he has knocked back our $5m offer to test the open market…. Enter Gus Gould….

I posted the MSN article about clubs enquiring re Latu Fainu's availability with his manager.

KPP the only forward for knights to break 100m. Would prefer him over Seyfarth. I don’t mind Seyfarth but improvement is improvement and seeing Seyfarth getting bent backwards by halves is soul destroying lol

Hopefully this doesn't affect the retention of TDS.

Can't keep them all...

I knew it the sniveling little turd, I'm glad the club made a stand, good F riddance was stinking up the attack anyway, bring in Latu after injury.

I’d imagine that door has just closed considerably

Bulldogs have not renewed Sexton and want Mahoney gone. Its a worry....

 

[gregjm87]

You sure?
Pretty sure he was Poached.

I know he certainly had his issues at Penrith and that they were happy to let everyone know about them once he left. Can not confirm if he was poached and Panthers then aired everything or Panthers booted him due to his issues.

At least the club has optics on which player to prioritise.

why ? He is gone from the Tigers …do you really care where he goes ?

It’s why they needed Galvin to make a call one way or the other

I am talking about TDS

I can't recall a club statement like that ever before. If the club is intent on holding Galvin to his contract, I would suggest moving Galvin to the backrow as soon as Latu returns from injury. Aside from Latu, we have other options of varying quality, including Doueihi, Bird, Falls, Liles and Ackland. The latter two have been pretty impressive in their limited opportunities though they're very green.

I just can’t even want to see him in 1st grade again , his manager his parents and Galvin himself have spat in the clubs face , benji gave him the chance to be a star and he just crapped on the club , put him on the bench for the lowest grade we got and let him rot for the. Next year and a half . I am just sick of players using us , to just jump ship

I’ve never seen a statement like that so far out from contract time. But I guess it helps diminish some of the uncertainty.
