As they prepare to part with Galvin, the Tigers are also in danger of losing Da Silva when his contract expires at the end of 2026. The teenage hooker is also considered one of the best young spine players in the game, but the club has been told he won’t re-sign if Koroisau’s contract is extended.

The Tigers want to keep them both, but are likely to prioritise Koroisau.

 

[Buttface]

My wish would be for us to get Kikau for the remainder of this year and 2 more years thereafter. KPP this year and Taylan may.

Kickau on the left, KPP on the right, Sam Fainu moves to lock where he wants to play, Seyfath and Hunt drop out of the 17.

8. May
9. Api
10.Pole
11.KP
12.Kikau
13.Fainu

14.Douehi
15.Twal
16.Sione
17. Sukkar

Sam Fainu wants to play lock does he?

I’m kind of liking hunt bird tds and sone this year

Tallyn hasn't had much game time, Bird got Dropped - Sione has gone up a level, He's got a few left to go for mine... And Hunt hasn't increased his minutes by much if at all...
They're doing the job (sometimes) Doesn't mean it can't be done way better.
- The post I replied to didn't have Hunt on the Bench.

Gould gaslighting Chammas on national t.v is hilarious.
Blind Freddy can see what has unfolded.

Well if blind Freddy can see it and I can see it, and most on WTF can as well.

WHY CANT THE NRL's INTEGRITY UNIT SEE SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT HERE.

 

[liltiger]

He's schooling Richo right now. Wouldn't let Mahoney leave immediately if he didn't have something lined up or pretty much confirmed.

I wish, for once, that we'd do something about it and the NRL would get real on tampering.

Based on what though, how do we know Richo is being schooled. The Galvin situation is unlike any other because of the possibility of legal action. Hypothetically, if at the behest of Moses Galvin was collecting dirt on the players to use as leverage to get out of his deal, would you say Richo has been schooled by letting him go cheaply in order to get that info and protect the squad and Wests Tigers brand. What about if Galvin has serious evidence of bullying and in order to protect the Wests Tigers from litigation has no choice but to let Galvin go because of how serious the evidence is. Would you still think Richo is being schooled. Until it's all done, we won't have any gauge on why things were done the way they have been.

 

[TYGA]

Never heard this before?

Not a lock at all for mine.

He’s destined for the front row at some stage he’s a junior prop. Second row for the next 3 years.

Heath mason to be named five eighth for this week

Will also wait to see who (if any) our new signings are before forming judgement on the overall situation. Got my fingers crossed we actually come out ahead if Richo can pull a rabbit out of the hat with recruitment.

Sorry to hear that. I want to be wrong but I don’t rate this bloke at all.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

At least it shows Benji has a backbone by not picking the wonder kid.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Keen to see Mason in another position other than fullback. He’s a goer, but just horrendous under the high ball.

 

[Demps]

We don't have many options


Sullivan? Playing for south's
Galvin? Well.....
AD? Needed in the centres.
Mapapalangi? Worth a shot but isn't top 30.
Falls? Personally think he's a dud.
Playing a hooker in the halves? Sure
Heath Mason? Realistic

 

[coivtny]

If you mean Galvin, there’s no way on earth he can be chosen in any grade for us.

No way. But given how weak our club has been at times, you wouldn’t put it past them.

I do as well but fair dinkum Benji has rocks in his head if this happens. The kid has played what maybe 2-3 games in reggies at 5/8 if that and hasn’t been put into a stable position since making the jump up from juniors.

It really highlights how bad our depth in the club is but even worse how we let players go at the detriment of our overall sqaud.

If he’s picked, it’s obvious he’s only keeping the jersey warm till Latu is fit. You know what Doueihi is going to bring to the table. Which isn’t necessarily bad, but why not just give Mason a week or two to see what he can offer. Could find his niche. He is a good ball runner.
