all of this crud you pander speaks to the fact that you don't listen to the pod, and instead read my posts to find anything you can clutch onto as some form of 'receipt'. we get supporters from rival clubs that constantly view, subscribe and join in the comments. once again, if you listened, you'd know that, but again, you've shown your hand.
if you had listened last week, you would know that Galvin took up approximately ten minutes of an 80 minute episode. if you think that discussing past release requests isn't relevant, then you clearly don't understand the need to provide background and context when analysing a situation.
I have actually listened twice.
It isn’t for me as I spend time on here and LU and as such usually everything said on the pod is something I’ve already heard and/or had discussions about days beforehand. Additionally, your quality isn’t great, and your offsider used to come in here spreading misinformation for a laugh, raising questions about credibility.
I prefer discussions on forums.
The situation with Galvin is not being analysed truthfully on here. His interview last night contradicted a vast percentage of the narrative being spread by Wests Tigers fans.
He doesn’t hate this club, loves and respects Benji as a man and as a player - maybe not so much as a coach, but he has never shitcanned him. He is still on speaking terms with Luai and all the boys. His ex CEO and coach, as well as some players are on record saying he is a good kid from a good family, yet I constantly hear and read from our fans that he is a glory hog, money grubbing, egotistical sack of shit who thinks he is far too good for this club….and his father is even worse!
This whole thing is a joint cluster-F. The club has had its head up its arse in the way it brought him into top grade and ignored fluorescent red flags, the Bulldogs and Eels have been underhanded, the NRL toothless, the management company manipulative, and the kid himself naive and immature.
HOWEVER….We have understood ALL of this for well over a month now, yet day after day after day this narrative of victimisation and “woe is me” permeates throughout the fanbase. There’s a conspiracy against us, with the refs cheating us and the NRL wanting to keep us down. Go on most game day threads and there are mentions of this within the first couple of pages after kickoff every single week, year after year. It’s tiresome. It’s weak.
This isn’t the club I have supported for 4 decades. Our call was Balmain boys don’t cry. There’s no way that saying holds true to this club.
