Exactly.

Madge made Ezra Mam get up at 730am and work for half a day as a punishment.

It was extreme, UNHRC had their eye on it.

Still got his $1m a season.

Tigers slap $165k transfer fee on Galvin to let him negotiate with rival clubs

Seems right to me. We get a wack of cash that effectively means we haven't paid Galvin, we also save $500k in legal fees and 150k we don't pay Galvin this year- so over $800k cash in our pocket for releasing a player who doesent want to be here and was leaving anyway.

Wests Tigers are believed to be eying off a move for St George Illawarra youngster Jonah Glover as they prepare for life without teenager superstar Lachlan Galvin.

Glover has been one of the stars for the Dragons in NSW Cup this season but he hasn’t been able to crack it for an NRL debut, coach Shane Flanagan opting instead for Lyhkan King-Togia when he made the decision to drop halfback Lachlan Ilias a few weeks ago.

Glover can’t do much more. Through 10 appearances in the NSW Cup, the 22-year-old has recorded 11 try assists and nine line break assists. The Dragons have won seven of those games and Glover has been a large part of their success.

It appears he has caught the eye of the Tigers in the process as they prepare for the imminent departure of Galvin, who is expected to leave the club in coming weeks.

Glover is on a development contract with the Dragons this season and is yet to agree a deal for 2026, meaning he is free to do what he wants at season’s end.

Good player and from Brisbane East's Richos old club and kicks goals without preventing you signing a better player or Latu taking the spot as he isn't a star but has been great in nsw cup.

As a member, it feels wrong.

Him and his manager Satan need to be properly punished.

Its money well spent to rub their noses in the dog poo and send a message to the game that we are done whoring ourselves all over town.

$165k is nothing to Satan. Chump change. The cost of servicing his Lamborghini.

SMH: The Wests Tigers will grant Lachlan Galvin permission to negotiate with rival clubs but will attach a transfer fee of $165,000 to his early release.

Tigers officials reached an agreement with Galvin’s management on Thursday that will allow the playmaker to open discussions with clubs about joining them before the June 30 transfer deadline.

The Tigers have demanded that all negotiations are based on the prerequisite that a $165,000 fee will be payable to the club for his release.

The Wests Tigers board met on Monday and agreed on the need to put the Galvin saga to bed, but chief executive Shane Richardson wanted a positive outcome for the club.

Galvin last month informed the Tigers of his desire to depart at the end of his contract, which runs until the end of 2026, with his manager Isaac Moses knocking back Richardson’s attempts to offer him a lucrative upgrade and extension offer worth close to $6 million.

Galvin is on the radar of the Parramatta Eels, while whispers about a move to the Bulldogs have grown louder in recent weeks despite a public declaration by general manager Phil Gould that his club would not pursue Galvin’s services.

“We are not involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion and we won’t be involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion,” Gould said. “We wish him all the best.”

The Bulldogs are yet to offer incumbent halfback Toby Sexton an extension and don’t appear in a hurry to lock down their No.7, who became a free agent last November.

Parramatta haven’t hidden their desire to lure Galvin, a childhood Eels supporter. Parramatta coach Jason Ryles sees Galvin as the ideal replacement for the Newcastle-bound Dylan Brown, who will join the Knights next year on a record $13 million deal over 10 years.

“I made my [interest] clear a couple of weeks ago. That hasn’t changed, so we’ll wait and see what happens,” Ryles said.

“The rule is you can’t negotiate until they get permission to, so until that happens we’ll keep our position there. Lots of strange things happen in footy [though], but we’ll make sure we do the right thing with the NRL.”

It comes as Brisbane skipper Adam Reynolds confirmed he had received interest from the Tigers about playing on at the joint venture club next year if he was unable to strike a deal with the Broncos.

“Yes, there’s been interest from the Tigers, but no actual offer,” Reynolds said late on Thursday.

“I’ve always had a lot of time for Benji, and I spent a few years playing junior footy at Leichhardt. But I want to stress my main priority is getting a deal done in Brisbane. That’s where I want to be. And I’m confident we’ll get something sorted.

“If my future isn’t in Brisbane, then naturally I’d have to look elsewhere. It’s nice to know the Tigers have shown interest.”

The idea of Reynolds running the side and allowing Jarome Luai to revert to his old No. 6 role would be sure to excite Tigers fans.

I was expecting more than that, surely the threat of earning $350,000 and reserve grade instead of a million should get us more then that?

I have a feeling TDS will end up at the dogs with his old high school coach and Mahoney will end up at the Cowboys.

I think he will stay and that's half the reason we get rid of Galvin now, because the toxicity is a risk of rubbing off.

TDS is 20...

By the age of 22 he will be an 80minute hooker playing with a spine of Bula, Luai and Latu.

If he doesn't buy in, then so be it. Find someone that wants to. Its ultimately up to him, but the pathway is there with the tigers if he wants it.
 
Remember when Sheens was coach and he said the best junior spine in the comp was in the club? Can only assume it was 9. TDS, 7. Conti, 6. Galvin, 1. Large. All gone or on their way out. Problems with most of their parents from what I hear. A disappointing result nonetheless. 🤷‍♂️
