This explains why you never respond to me....Honestly boys just use the ignore button i literally ignored 3 people that constantly cause problems and my time here is so much more pleasant. Don't bother feeding the plebs just ignore and move on
Like I said, the problem most of the time is emotion. It’s a powerful tool that clouds judgement.Aren't all posts on the forum subjective from our own viewpoints.
Have your been hacked ? Blink twiceI just want to point out the narrative that the reaction of “we’re better off without him” is some kind of “I didn’t like you anyway” response to Galvin leaving , as if it’s a entirely new thing , is just not true .
I’ve been highly critical of Galvin for over a year . I’ve felt he hasn’t done much since his sook about his hand being broken , and I’ve been very much on the Fainu>>>> Galvin thing for ages .
Just to give even more credence to this , I was one of the first to point out ADs defensive deficiencies when he was the golden child as well . People even implied racism/ Luke Brooks Pocket holder …. It got nasty !
This post isn’t to say I told you so , but to the make the point that these conversations were being had , and people were talking about tempering expectations.
To be fair @Tucker was one of them, along with myself . As much as I hate saying it .
I will say, that is funny. Now allow me to edit it...Well that’s my response to the contrarian rubbish
Sounds like you take yourself and this site too seriously. Don’t do that. Lighten up a little.
Thank you for your sacrifice
Anytime politics is discussed, it turns into a shit fight. Seems strange you’d single me out.
Sorry, but I did giggle at the irony of this.
💯 true story , look at my post history . I’ve even been going back and forth with @Batmans Parents because of the legacy of what I was talking . Ie. I’m hating on AD because I ❤️ Brooks . When it was really , I like both players , I just wanted one to stop shoulder charging everyone and use his arms , and the other to get out of his own head , and have his control match his potential .Have your been hacked ?

EGOLike I said, the problem most of the time is emotion. It’s a powerful tool that clouds judgement.
That too.
Of course I don’t swallow it verbatim, however his narrative somewhat aligns with what Richardson and Benji have said previously. Therefore I’m far more likely to go with that narrative than the one being spread on here by disgruntled fans.Don't tell me that an avowed cynic like you is going to take as gospel Galvin's scripted responses in that softball interview? Besides the fact that he's subject to a non-disparagement clause, shitcanning the club on the way out would only diminish his public reputation further.
Neither party has handled the situation particularly well, but your eagerness to absolve Galvin of any blame speaks more to your hatred of the club.
I doubt he was going to take the stand!"The DV charge was only withdrawn because the prosecution witnesses didn’t come to court. It wasn’t withdrawn because the Police thought they didn’t have a case. They just couldn’t prove it."
It wouldn't be the first time that either party had to face the fact of providing the evidence under oath and under cross-examination - it's sort of confronting when you see the sentences for perjury.
It should be expressly described so there’s no argument later.The club can already fine and remove them from club duties.
You don't need extra clauses.
Look at every player that's been sacked in the NRL. None of them got sacked because of some extra clause. It's already baked in and not required. I think the standard contract is fine. Clauses are for the terms of payment and contract length, not for behaviour.
Since when do we take - 19 year olds, under non-disclosure agreements, in a pre-rehearsed interview, hosted by a manger-approved journalist - at their word?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.
To be fair, I think that is exactly what @Tucker is saying.Since when do we take - 19 year olds, under non-disclosure agreements, in a pre-rehearsed interview, hosted by a manger-approved journalist - at their word?
Nothing performative in there? C'mon mate. We can all move on, but let's not pretend like the truth isn't somewhere in the middle.
That may well be true for both parties......I doubt he was going to take the stand!
It should be expressly described so there’s no argument later.
Lovely post to unite everybody.I hope Galvin plays against the Tigers & Luai smokes him.
Better yet, Mason runs past him & shows Galvin's defence up.
Yes, by not showing up I guess she was refusing to take the stand.That may well be true for both parties......
Or provides easily refuted testimony and then gets reminded about the perjury provisions. We only ever know what the media tells us and these cases have many factors and not every report is entirely unbiased about the people involved. We all move on.Yes, by not showing up I guess she was refusing to take the stand.
Or she turns up, gets on the stand, resiles from her previous statement and is declared to be a hostile witness.
But she would have to be up early in the morning to beat the gun police prosecutor they parachuted in.
Yes, it’s a slice of the whole.Or provides easily refuted testimony and then gets reminded about the perjury provisions. We only ever know what the media tells us and these cases have many factors and not every report is entirely unbiased about the people involved. We all move on.
💯 correct.The club has had a terrible last decade …the likes of which is probably the worst 10 year period of any club in my 40+ years following the game,,,The people still left here are the rusted ons, and will be here most probably for life … but I’m assuming that most of us are old barstads ….the club desperately needs even some medium success for a couple of years to breathe some new life into the joint
