Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

The worst part about this is that it will be a topic in the media for as long as he sticks around.

Good to get on the front foot early in the season and say it's done, but it won't stop the speculation around the team.

I hope it doesn't impact our season.

Benji, Api, Luai & Richo have to play with as straight a bat as possible. There will be questions, every week, about Galvin.

Don't bite. Dictate the narrative. Talk about the results.

Winning a few would help.

Eels & Dragons over the next 3 weeks gives us the chance to bury the story a little. A win against the Sharks would be very nice.

That’s awesome ! It’s the right thing to do . The right thing by Taylan and really everyone around him . Regardless of footy . Work out the man first , then the footy will come !
 
The only other player i can remember who's dad has been mentioned almost as much as the player during contract talks is Ponga. At least his dad faced the camera as well.
At 19 obviously still a kid... who has a manager. So the club having.to talk to Galvin and the manager and the dad is a massive red flag.
First in forever the majority of the media are backing the tigers decision which is a great change

Just read that pole has been liking posts on Facebook calling galvin ungrateful as well. He only just signed an extension after being chased by Melbourne. I think this whole galvin thing will cause some unrest to the squad. Play Doueihi at 6 this week send galvin to jersey flegg to let him develop since that's what he wants so bad
 
I wouldn't be surprised at all if the team is off him.

Most players would make their intentions clear with their teammates, at least to let the playing group know prior to all of it coming out. I feel like Galvin was never honest.

I'm pretty sure Benji will not name him today, they'll call it a break from the noise (ala Cleary with Turuva when we signed him) - but really it'd be damage control.
 
Perfect opportunity with Lachys age to make a player see out his contract in the lower grades and use him on need base only, and force a player manager to suffer the consequences on the back of attempted manipulation. And any clubs that have been meeting him for coffee catch ups can continue to do so till November 1 and beyond if need be.

Ontini Large was another one the club was forced to put up with demanding parents.

Welcome to the WTF GCTiger.

I like the fact that Fanua Pole is doing that.

There is something special at the Tigers.
 
Everyone its best that you read the report that Lachie is leaving the club because he believes the club is going in the wrong direction because of the coaching staff and that he cant improve under Benji .. with a lot of salt .. !!! A real lot of salt .. !! This is purely a stunt by his manager Isaac "the mongrel dog" Moses .. lets go back many years to when the Tigers were considered to have the best young players in the game .. Woods, Moses, Teddy and Brooks .. it was Isaac Moses who was their manager who tried to rip the Tigers apart by telling them they would be better off going to another club to have a chance in winning a premiership .. how did that work for Moses and Woods .. ?? Only Teddy went on to win a premiership with the Rorters.

I'll go out and say that had those players stayed with us .. we had a strong chance of winning a premiership as they developed .. !! Isaac Moses is hell bent on make money out of the players .. that destroying our club for the sake of it doesnt matter to him .. !! Isaac Moses should be deregistered by the NRL as he doesnt promoted the clubs .. he destroys them. Even the Rorter refuse to deal with Moses as a manager when it comes to his contracted players.

If it wasnt for the Tigers and Benji .. Galvin would still be playing SG Ball or what ever it is called for he's age division. not too many other clubs would give a tall skinny kid a shot at 1st grade. We would still have Ontonio Large at the club if he had know that Galvin was going to leave .. !! We have the rest of this year and the next season with Galvin still at the club .. BUT dont be surprised if Galvin / Moses pull a Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon card out of their sleeve .. and say that Lachie's mental health is a worry if he stays at the club .. so they request for an early release .. !!

Remember .. Isaac "the mongrel dog" Moses .. is a mongrel dog .. !!

This has Richo all over it.. Past admin would have bent over backwards to sign him and paid overs, but Richo does it in a way that shows the club won't sign players for the sake of it.
He has time away and gets rehab and if we sign him, it is a lot smoother to the media and fans ears plus the player himself will be better for it.
