Be interesting to see how many turn up at the Member's Day.

I see they have brought in a new initiative to try and get people there, A Member's Day Membership.

$10 for Adults and $5 for kids, you get a membership card and entry to the Member's Day.

I guess that counts in the total membership numbers.

I’d be surprised if Moses and his parents aren’t on the same page. My question is if Moses hates the club so much, why negotiate the current contract in the first place?

The problem I see with now with Richo now beating his chest about Galvin being contracted, you cant on one hand say the player is under contract and we wont be releasing him while on the other hand shop players around that are on contract and completely contradict what you are saying re loyalty and fulfilling your contractual agreement.

We as a club always leave ourselves open for being criticised by the media. And a lot of our fans have the same train of thought. You cant have your cake and eat it too and then wonder why we are up sh!t creek on a daily basis.

And if its true that Galvin has been playing with a fractured hand that's poor form on the clubs part. You cant expect a young kid to be happy that he is forced to play while other players injured and another kid the same age, in the same position on half a million a year is continually sitting out due to an injury.

Its not any of the players faults but the WT administration (past and present) because we have no depth WHATSOEVER, All the kids we keep spruiking about coming through are not setting the world on fire in NSW Cup (I think the team is coming last), if we end up rushing them through too, injuries will be bound to follow.

What I don’t get is why would a player request a release without another club lined up? It is very risky. The rules mean jack.

The injury then becomes a part of it.

Were playing him injured. A fracture expanded could really harm his hand and ruin his career.

While I think it is usual Moses showboating and we should just not sign any player with him (yes anyone, even if it's DCE/Cleary). ...
Kid wants a NRL future.

Galvin asking for a release without a contract, makes me think this is "injury related" then "money". Naturally don't trust Moses, but giving the guy the benefit of the doubt.
 
Totally agree with you. Only issue there needs to be balance with how our club manages these young kids, currently Sullivan has a broken finger he is out for 4 weeks. I couldn't blame a young kid who when both are fit it would be Galvin chosen before Sullivan but one is getting paid three times the amount $$$ wise, hurts his finger is out for 4 weeks, while the lesser paid player with a busted hand is expected to play.

We need to remember Sullivan was a Benji appointed player.

Biggest issue is our Top 30 for next year over 10 players are very young, its mismanagement not having the depth. I think the best thing the club could do is sack the coaching staff, appoint Brad Arthur that can coach and has a proven record in rebuilding a team and have him solely in charge of recruitment. Only a coach like Arthur could attract the players we need and have the confidence of the players to start a proper rebuild of our club.

Have a look at whats happening at Dragons, Flanno has already started the rebuild and their fans aren't waiting a 5, 10 or 15 year plan for it to happen! Fcuk its frustrating !!!!

Luke 90% is it overly large amount I know probably should’ve corrected myself and said 70% ,-there are a group of players putting in every week but the majority are not the results speak to themselves
Mate if his heart isn’t in the joint, why keep him….dont you want players that actually want to be here and put in for the club…FFS 10 weeks ago Galvin was quoted as wanting to form a Dynasty within the club and the young guys coming through….first bad trot he experiences and he wants out…. Go I say and don’t let the door hit you on the way out son….

It’s contract related nothing else. Clubs target good players from weaker clubs and agents get paid. Better club more cash. It’s why contracts are put in place and why the club has to stand its ground for good.

Totally agree 👌Just says how hot and cold he blows - close to the beginning of the season,he was talking to all the young junior's coming through the system- saying the future of this club is with us junior’s and we’ve got the makings of a great team, please stay.!!LOL.
 
Tom Shines said:
Yeah just ask Ice and Liddle ,..contracts are just contracts …

Let’s see how long they want to keep around a guy crying in the dressing room every week that he wants out after another flogging …great for the team morale…

The problem is there’s no team morale. None of us know what goes on between the four walls and if energy is negative enough. it affects all the playing group -not a great problem to have -not sure how it changes either. Unless we start winning games, LOL.

yes .. they have to start winning games … this three year funk they are in of 10 wins in 65 odd games is historic levels bad …

I know Richo has to multi task the issues around memberships, sponsors, home grounds and probably others … but the most critical thing he has to is to improve this team and start winning games … even winning 8 games a year and moving off the bottom is a modest first step but that’s starting to look like 2026 not 2025 the way things are heading …I have used the term that the squad is changing at a glacier pace …

Sure to be a smash hit... Don't have to attend any mind numbingly bad WTs games

I doubt Galvin will be there at the members day ... Imo half of this"he's having a rest" crap is to have a decent reason to protect him from this... It was either this or one of those perspex cage /barrier things taxi drivers have for protection
