People lose a sense of reality on this forum. There's nothing to suggest that Reynolds has the skills to be a mentor (which is different to his skills as a player) and it didn't work out well for his previous understudy at Souths. There's also nothing to suggest that Latu would be able to learn...

I'm somewhat mystified by the love for Mr Da Silva - as yet he hasn't won us any games directly and his performance in the stands in the last match of 2024 showed real contempt for the club. If he walks so be it, there'll always be others.

Wests Tigers to grant Galvin permission to negotiate with rival clubs with conditions

But who are we to ask someone to forego an opportunity now for something in the future that may not happen at all. Circumstances change and if he sees an opportunity then he should take it.

Maybe no one wants to come here ?

I can't believe everyone wanting Reynolds- he's not a mentor at any club he's been at and he's a liability in defence ( just ask Nathan Clearly who targets him near the line). He's too old and is of no value.

Or he could break down in the first couple of games and everybody here champing at the bit to bring him here will lament how badly the front office got it wrong.

Why, Galvin doesn't play in his position ?

Didn't Luai come to the Tigers to explicitly play half ?? That release might loom large in his rear view mirror if it's not to be ?

Wasn't Luai bought here to be half ?

For those who think the rivers of gold will always increase this is a good read about the introduction of DAZN taking over Foxtel https://www.smh.com.au/sport/a-soviet-oligarch-will-decide-the-future-of-the-nrl-20250504-p5lwcj.html

Comments like that are the same as wedding vows!

He looked like he was going to be a decent player at NRL level but obviously the club saw it differently.

Don't we have a 7 already - one who came here to be the 7 and might like a season or two in that position ?

Punishment - he's being paid considerably more than other players at that level. He journey to that grade reflects his actual performances - once the allure of having to bend to his whims has worn off.

See Joe Schmidt ( the Wallabies coach) on players signing to play overseas next year - you don't get piked for tje Lions matches which only come around about once in your professional career.

Looked likely but hasn't done anything at all this year - Newcastle have scored 40+ this year in 5 games an were the 2nd lowest scoring team last year. He doesn't help.

1 try in 25 isn't a good investment and newcastle have scored 46 points in 5 games

He's struggled because of better opposition and a lack of skill to compensate with the rise in intensity and class. Put him in Melbourne he'd be better put him with a struggling outfit and he'd perform accordingly.
