It didn’t help that the Eels are also one of the worst diving teams in the comp. They know how to put on a performance and sway penalties and other leg-ups out of the refs.
Tuilagi went down like he’d been shot, wincing in agony before a brush of contact was even made with his leg. I swear...

When Latu is fit, I think there will be much less chance of Galvin retaining his spot, but who knows - if he really performs well he might stay in the side. Either way, it can only be a good thing.
4-peat of premierships at Penrith, then partakes in the last of a 4-peat of wooden spoons here?
In any case, no I don’t think we’re getting another spoon… This was sarcasm
Also my thoughts. I'd go as far as to say this has been having a negative impact on our attack too. Actually really looking forward to seeing what the new Tigers can do without Galvin in their stifling them. Have a feeling there may be improvement even with AD in there this week, let alone when...
Thought that Galvin being dropped would only have been to give him a rest due to the controversy/making sure his head was in the right space. But not so sure now that he’s been named in KOE. Maybe Benji really has drawn a line
How dumb. Can’t fathom why the Eels would bring him back when they have a bye next round. Could’ve given him another good two weeks of recovery just to make sure he’s fit.
They must rate their chances of getting a win against us. Tigers by 13+ and Moses re-injures himself 😂

I’d almost rather Latu develop as one of our long term halves over Galvin anyway. I really don’t think we’re missing out on much.
Hopefully we stick with Latu in the halves for the rest of the season and through 2026. No reason to put Galvin in there unless there are injuries.
