Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Gould lining up Galvin and TDS.

Seyfarth is now being classed as an edge forward, like he was when coming through the pathways.
If you look to see what edge forwards are available to recruit from other clubs for 2026, there is next to nobody worthwhile available except Kai Pearce-Paul who will be looking for big money which we will not have available to spend if we upgrade Galvin.

Found out that the hard way V, a headache resulted when I went looking not many to choose from and mediocre at best.

Any coincidence this "rumour" emerges with the announcement of the re-signing of Haywood?

Hearing real strong whispers of TDS defecting to Dogs*

Dogs want TDS bad, which is why they are shopping Mahoney…. Don’t believe a word Gus is saying they aren’t…. Sadly TDS is open to joining them

The TDS to Dogs talk worries me.
They wouldn't be shopping Reed Mahoney if they didn't have something lined up.

The more I think about this...

The more I go Bulldogs... WTF??

Seriously I remember them punting Michael Ennis. Ok they had too because their cap was stupid. But that was the downturn of their entire team and Cronulla won the premiereship soon after. Michael Lichaa, remembered for ?? not much.

Now they have Reed Mahoney and a rocking attack and... The answer is to punt their hooker. The same hooker who took Parra to the finals??

I don't get this. I don't get this at all. Either their cap is crap and they want to downgrade Reed for TDS OR something is wrong with Mahoney.

At the end of the day, we have him signed. We don’t have to release him…Assuming any of it is true.

The hysteria is just silly looks like being a good player down the track but not an established 80 minute player yet.

Like Galvin Dogs can sign him from November 1st…. But you can bet your house that Gus has already signalled his intentions via a 3rd party to both….Richo and Benji know this but are at the mercy of the Agents… who are not interested in talking contract extension for now

So many naysayers on this forum. The club is in the best position in years. If we have a dogs type year and are successful they will stay. TDS needs 30mins each week. Richo will handle it, gus lol. I thought dogs are a development club, what a flog

 

[rihannafan1]

Certainly reads as being Tallyn, and the dogs won't be the only club having a reasonable shot at getting him if he isn't given the opportunities and minutes he has shown that he deserves.

lol he has not been given that?

We’ll only be in the best position if/when we start winning games.

He’s 19. Not 23-24. No club is starting any 19 year olds at hooker.

Will not happen, you can put money on it.

Who is TDS.

Come on mate is this an attempt at humour?

Spot on. Managers are always talking to other clubs & players often do meet officials from other clubs for coffee. It's the world of professional sport!

90% of time (my guess) players extend but it's all about keeping options open & relationship building nowadays.

I'm sure Richo has spoken to a few from other clubs too who are under contract.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Not really the thread for it but Bar TV is showing our NSW Cup & Jersey Flegg trials tomorrow. How bloody good is this even if there is no commentary!

 

[Betterdays22]

Maybe I misinterpreted the last few pages but The GM of another club is seen "having lunch" with one of our contracted players... I thought that was not on?

I think you just heard your fart?

Look I am sure Gould has an eye for young talent and Galvin is on his radar..

TDS, probably less so. I don't think the two have partnered much anyway, although usually clubs raid players in pairs... You wouldn't punt a hooker like Reed Mahoney just to raid our lower talents.
