WGD Moses last night told his client Sharon that Galvin won’t leave Tigers this year.

Any chance the Tigers are cutting him loose because he’s out of form and some of his suitors might have lost a bit of interest? Would be funny if he cops a hit financially.

Wishful thinking.

He's old enough to drive a car, drink and go to jail.

As Braith said on 360, this also reflects on Galvin, he isn't a 9 year old kid. He is an adult and has played his hand in this .

He is old enough also to command a million dollars? What's your point? And I'm not Braith. So think.
 
If all we get is $150k transfer for the DH its hard to argue we haven't rolled over despite all the big talking. Obviously there's plenty we don't know going on behind the scenes but the optics aren't great imo.
A player trade would have been better but getting a player we want and who's willing to come might not have been the easiest thing to wrap up.
The only thing that makes any sense is the environment with him in it is so toxic its not worth the trouble digging in our heels, imo the bullying stuff would amount to zero so i don't think its a huge factor.

Gus just tweeted implying he’s been in meetings all day, reckon there’s a player swap coming.

Moses just agitates. He creates a situation that is untenable for the club to the point where the club can’t wait to get rid of him. He started with the Benji can’t coach approach (subsequently leaked to the media) and then was able to upgrade to the bullying route as soon as Luai and Turuva posted and May gave him a spray at training.

I like Latu, but he isn’t ready to play first grade week in week out yet.
He’s played 27 games of senior footy across the past 3 seasons.
The guy is struggling through a horrible injury run.
The timing is awful. We need Bud back.

Alternatively, we do a three way workload shift between Api, Latu and TDS each getting about 60 mins of game time in the rotation. Not my first preference but workable. The other option is the have Kurt Falls rotate with Latu and build some synergy between KoE and FG. We have options if we think a little outside the box that allow us to develop a couple of players in the role.

The real question to be answered is: does this change release Luai from having to set the play for Galvin's sweeps etc. What I means is ff we were to select a left side right side playmaker and let Bula sweep left and right depending on opportunites instead of Galvin sweeping left and Bula right we are surely in a much better position. Both Luai and whoever the other half is get to play their natural game. The only issue I see with this is that both are genuine 5/8ths as opposed to halves. However, Luai came here to prove himself - now is the time to make hay!

Luai is clearly doing the organising on the field in conjuntion with Api, who is not afraid to overcall and make decisions. So even though Latu doesn't have a great voice on the paddock this could be a combination that works well. It is clear from Romey's comments that Latu would be his preferred halves partner.

The other thing that this may unlock is Sam F - what if we swapped him onto the other edge with his brother and bought Sukkar (until KPP or another FG ready edge arrives) in as a Kikau type ball runner with Luai - now we know how that combo worked for the Panthers

The bigger question is: Who do we grow and nurture as our next half? Why? Because the good teams have a developemnt and succession plan.
