Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[tigermate]

No way … I don’t believe it.

But would be kinda cool

Ok so if he signs , which young half you reckon leaves?

Hope not galvin

I kind of agree as we have seen this happen way too many times to us.. If he wanted to join, he would have by now or even committed etc.. Maybe we need to take the Dogs approach and sit back and wait until the end and come it and seal the deal.. If I was a player, I would prefer the club that shows interest in me first and not the last ones.

Players want different things...

Some want the P check. So I get these stupid games. Take Ryan Matterson, singed with us for 300k, got upgraded to 500k, then left us for Parra on 700k and got upgraded again.

Then refused to pay a $4000 penalty and so missed 3 games ... Good buying Parra*.

Other players like Nicho Hynes, likes playing near the sea.

The Penrith group like playing together.


Luai would ofcourse prefer to stay at Penrith. We are ofcourse offering him at least 200k to jump ship. He is torn between his mates and his paycheck. Don't judge, paycheck means he provides for his family.

*in fairness they made the finals with him.

galvin is agitating for a release.

Would not be Galvin, may be his manager Isaac Moses but not Galvin - held in very high regard by Benji.

Galvin probably leaves anyway regardless of whether we get Luai or not

I think we have to keep their positions fluid.

I could actually see each of Fainu, Galvin & Sullivan as halfbacks depending on how they progress. Just because Galvin will be 190cm+, why can't he be a uniquely-built halfback if he maintains his speed & agility.

Can also see Galvin & Large as fullbacks too (they are both athletes & highly-skilled, instinctual and smart footy players).

No reason Fainu couldn't develop into a hooker or Galvin a lock too.

Exactly they are all still young and no guarantee any will even be a regular NRL player.
Fainu could end up at half, five eight, lock or hooker
Galvin 5/8, centre, lock, SR etc
Large still 3/4 yrs off first grade, tho I like him at centre at this time.
time will tell.

Very solid mate, he is giving Penrith 10 days notice. Unless the Laundy's offer him a third party pub ownership deal.

The 10 days were up on Tuesday.

At the moment, who cares. They might never amount to anything for all we know. This guy has three premiership rings.

Out of interest why do you think Galvin leaves, why not Latu Fainu or Bud Sullivan???

Galvin could end up being Luai's halves partner. He may want to continues to progress with his Wests mates.

Watched him on that podcast. Seems a very humble kid. Mentions he just wants to play against men as his next step, sees himself as a 5/8 but hasn’t spent any time before this preseason training and playing against any men ie NSWCup or First Graders. Also a wests junior left before to Parra but wanted to come back and play local.

Don’t pay attention to MIKSRL

This galah doesn’t get any information before the mainstream media outlets, and, haven’t our leaks stopped now?

could be galvin or his manager - one or both of them are looking for a release.

i agree with @GNR4LIFE - luai is a winner. we've landed a big fish.

nothing is coming out of the club around this
0 mail about if he has made a decision
but again the dogs have at this stage not made an offer , contrary to whats been reported

galvin is locked in, no one is agitating for anything, his path to first grade at every club would be the same at the moment, he is a campbelltown local

Hi All,

the mail has stayed the same with Jerome
dogs are looking to offload RFM and JAC to sign him and a middle

the relationships with ciraldo / critta / burton / kikau / salmon are all too strong especially when a longer deal is at play

still more to play out / no offer has been formally made by the dogs

If we get him I reckon after a year or two a team will be desperate for a half and Sullivan will transfer.

Ohh finally you bring us back to the 12th.

Hell yeah

Thanks man

Made my night

After @ConePuncher ruined it lol

@kade7 what’s the atmosphere like with Richo around and thoughts on Fulton staying around?

 

[BAGNF05]

You’re always going to back the coach, Especially publicly.

Like the last regime didn’t (constantly )😂

I'm unsure why Galvin would leave, tigers want luai for half back and Galvin wants to play 5/8. I agree if it's true then it's that grub Isaac moses

 

[rugbygoated]

I saw Brian To'o's dad this week and just by the look in his eyes I could tell Luai has signed for the Bulldogs

So don’t expect a Luai announcement tomorrow?
