Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Aceshigh]

Richo did this with Stef and if he’s sees it coming , he’d do it again.

And if he does sign elsewhere early , we make him play out his contract here which would cost us bugger all

Are we still talking about Galvin?

Here for Taylan May news. Surely it's imminent.

Or should I say, 48hrs.

Trust the Tigers to screw up the calendar. Looks like we’re getting May twice this year 🤔

7

He doesn't lead any statistics in NRL or even close to it. Tries, try assists, etc. He's done all he has in a great penrith system picking his moments when on the front foot. On the back foot, which he contributed to on the weekend, he failed in the crunch moments. I'm prepared to say I'd prefer to have Luke Brooks right now who can actually win a game as opposed to luai who is simply not a match winner.

I’m sure Galvin will stay if our next offer is competitive and we win a lot more games this year. He won’t stay if our offer is well short or we are close to the bottom again.

Richo’s biggest problem will be Benji if we don’t start winning more games. Nice bloke or not Benji needs more wins than losses.

 

[Dennisspicer1]

One STATISTIC About Brooks that has not been mentioned, the amount of games he had lost for us over 10 yrs about 25 at least,
Because of his errors.

Those figure's would far outway the amount of games he won for us,
10 yrs Maybe 3 or 4.
Possibly.

Moses is his manager. Braith asked on nrl360 who his manager was (as if he didn't know), that's where you might have gotten your wires crossed. There's a lot of hyperbole & emotional hypochondria surrounding players leaving from the usual suspects on here. Rd.1 man, enjoy the ride

They never ever let up on it .. the same bloody posters constantly and continually whining or yelling that Galvin is gone .. I’m starting to think Isaac Moses has 5 sock accounts on here like a Jedi

Chammas & Weidler chat about Taylan May then Lachie Galvin from about the 25-min mark.

With Isaac Moses as his manager guaranteed it would be full of get out clauses, especially now it's come out Luai has them, so he will know the club are willing to do it if they want to.

"the club are willing to do it if they want to" - and they may not be.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Luai could sign for Parramatta in 2027. His first get out clause is 2026.

So we could have offered him minimum wage for 15 years and he would have taken it, hey. lol.

That was pretty telling. Chammas gave away lot there in that segment. Especially the part where he insinuated Moses is shopping him while still on contract, and when he mentioned that Gus (who he knows very well from %100 footy etc.) has been angling to get Galvins signature, we've been saying that for over a year on here that his compliments towards him haven't been in good faith & that he's using his position in the media and as CEO to influence and outcome on a player in the market. It's tampering pretty much.

Gus is a CEO?
Of where?

Remember when Gus just happened to visit the Fainu in jail?

Whats the bet he hasn't been back, everything he does whether its in the media or not is self interest.

True they may not be, but with a guy like Moses he's a shark, he smells a bit of blood and there's no way he not demanding get out clauses.

Moses has upped the ante. " Lachlan - even Brown can make 13 million - imagine how much we can make. You and ME! A great team.

It's all designed to do this exact thing again, derail a teams season & push a player you want on yours, in this case Galvin.. Putrid

Agree with Tucker here,
No where near as dangerous in attack as Fittler & Daley were at the same age, both of these two were a lot bigger in the body and turned out to be superstars.
Players like these two don’t come around very often.
By Galvin not extending now could work both ways, because if he doesn’t have a good year his value might drop from what the $ figures being mentioned at the moment.
Richo has to balance the salary cap budget and I don’t know if having 2 halves on massive dollars leaves enough for other positions
Eg.
A gun Centre or 2nd Rower

They were both playing alongside Australian halfbacks and great forward packs too. Let’s give Galvin 5 mins before we put the red pen through, not many 18 year olds handle first grade like he did in 2024.
