    Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

    Not saying I have an inside word or anything, and maybe this has already come out, but I have heard that we are about to announce a few new signings in the next week or so, one of which has all happened quickly off the back of the Galvin saga. My money is on KPP to be coming here for 2026. Will...

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Maybe this has been said but... Bullying is defined under section 789FD of the Fair Work Amendment Act 2013 (Cth) as when an individual or group of individuals repeatedly behave unreasonably towards a worker and that behaviour creates a risk to health and safety. As this response was 1...

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Here's a little insight that offers another angle to all this... Apparently, Galvin had said to his manager that he wanted to play for the Eels eventually but was happy to try his hand at WT. They did the extension in 2023 at Tigers, were a little unhappy with Benji buying all the halves and...

    Check out the Bloke in a Bar live reaction to Benji's press conference. It's a fun watch and shows what the non-tiger NRL fan thinks. They loved it! Starts at minute 41.

    FOX NEWS 500 - Press Conference 11:45am

    I love Benji and our two captains on such a primal level. Benji's honesty and no-ego approach and Romey/Api's quiet fire bubbling beneath the surface. Win, learn or draw they all are true tigers and deserve our utmost respect. This could be the thing that pushes us to another level this year. Go...

    The only (non-halves) players I would swap Galvin for are: Payne Haas Haumole Olakau’atu Angus Crichton Liam Martin Pat Carrigan Stephen Chrichton All are highly unlikely if not impossible. We have our spine sorted and just need a killer 2nd-rower and to keep our starting 17 fit. I like...

    How would people feel if Galvin just came out and said "I've always wanted to play for Parra."? Because I think that's a part of this. He grew up following them, dreamt of representing them, got shafted by them but still wants to go back. Plus having both Isaac and Mitch in his ear, Brown...

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Would love to get a list of all Wests Tigers players currently represented by Isaac Moses. Hopefully not too many left after Klemmer and Bateman left.

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Personally, I wouldn't let him go. Let him play reserves and fill in for Latu when he's injured. Make him prove his next contract and face the boys every week with his tail between his legs. Will be good for him. HOWEVER, Manly losing DCE next year means they need a win in the halves and could...

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    Wow. Although not unexpected, still a shock. Brightside, I think Latu is a gun and may actually suit Luai's game better. Galvin and Luai play a similar style of probing, jinking around while Latu plays straighter and could be a good foil to Luai. Also, our cap is in a good place. Keeping...

    This has probably been said but for Turuva to be hit high, not get the penalty, BUT get pulled off for a HIA... THEN they get a penalty for a head high and their player NOT get pulled for a HIA, who then kicks the penalty... sus, as the young kids say. I was there on the night and it felt like...

    If Eels decide to part ways with Brown early as rumoured, then Knights will need to free up some cap and space. There is a certain backrower there that is close with Benji and we could take over his contract for the rest of 2025 and 26...

    Your team vs Warriors

    Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I'll be in Sydney this week and scored myself some free tickets to the Warriors game. Any locals have some advice for the best way to get from Newtown to Campbelltown on a Sunday? Train?

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    IMO, Galvin is not yet a $1M player. I don't think any 19-year-old NRL player is. He'll get there but like Luai or Brown or Cleary, that contract will come after a period of sustained success. Say at 23/24 years old. Even that is earlier than the others mentioned who didn't get their $1M...

    Sure but I have a feeling that there's a plan for those spots with each allocated for a certain position or type of player. Just a hunch.

    On Taylan, I reckon they're just waiting for the official medical retirement for Olam before pulling the trigger on May. Centre for centre. Leaves a spot open for a forward and one more up our sleeve for if something falls in our lap à la Terrel.

    CLAWS OUT

    How good is this new try celebration? Gotta say got me amped up. The hand in a claw shape dragged across the chest. Could become iconic and smart marketing for us.
