Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Your "third party source" is FOS.

Galvin was put at five eight all throughout the preseason and is the clubs long term plan at 6.

Well that’s concerning.

 

[Tucker]

Sure they are going to move the only thing in the teams that's actually working, for someone who isn't even on the field. Yep BS.

Is he working at 5/8?

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

So on one hand there are complaints about him playing with an injury and now a complaint about a position change. Sounds like a real diva

Not gonna hit the kid yet. TBH everything sounds like it’s the parents - same reason why he left & then came back, parents controlling things.

Richo making a direct comment of sitting down with him and his parents indicates it’s his parents driving this.

One day with us, and the psychologist would be on the couch.

True, true so very true 🤣

Sorry to bother all you, but why do we hate aaron woods so much?
I hate em us much as the rest of you mob do, but thats just cause i follow the hivemind. Could someone please inform me 🙏

Firstly if you’re not with us you’re against us, and he is against us.
Secondly, He shite all over us as he walked out, and he would seriously only come here to budge and take money and shite on us again at the end. He is a marshmallow Dora haircut wearing pussy, who ruined his career and has no fans from any of the multiple clubs bcoz he is such a shite bludging imposter of a footballer.
Remember now?

Bevan French won the Challenge Cup for Wigan overnight.
This guy literally covers every position in the backline. Last night he dominated as a halfback but he's played every other position very well over the last couple of years.
He needs to be here if only for his utility value.
And I know he's signed to Wigan but we really should be trying to see if there's any sort of deal to be made.

Same manager as Luai.

wow lots of drama internally at the club currently
i reported ages ago that we were sniffing around cotric thats desd in the water but we are sniffinh around a few outside backs , but honestly no one of note

look again i got this off a third party source
galvin has asked for a release , he has been asked to move to 14 when latu is fit, to give latu an opportunity, wasnt recieved well by galvin and family , the club would also like to him spend time as an outside back due to the current roster depth

issac moses will keep pushing here, hopefully richo holds firm, but galvin to be fair wouldnt be in first grade at many other clubs atm

If Galvin wants to spit the dummy every time a decision regarding his position. Is not to his liking, show him to door now….

May be we should cut the Stefano life cord know and do a deal with the Panthers give us Preston Ricki and Riley Price and we will pay 40% of his contract this season and next.

Why give up players for a guy who’s coming next season anyway? They aren’t desperate like we would be.

I'd pay overs (not too much) for Royce Hunt. For me he's proven even in beaten sides for sharks and samoa to be a really good player. He's 28, but I can see him getting better and better, and he seems to be a good squad guy

I have heard he has agreed to sign with Souths already

More likely his Manager who currently hates Wests Tigers doing everything he can to agitate a move.

I have been preaching this for over a year he is a gun , if he is not on our shopping list then who is making these decisions should be FIRED

Yep. He is probably quite content himself how things are progressing.

I am sick and tired of hearing Player this and Player that want out of the club. If Galvin wants out, show him the bloody door now.. He is contracted till 2026 FFS....

I mentioned this in another thread This is not how it works. You don’t react like an emotional teenager if a player wants out, especially an 18 year old prodigy. Seriously, on one hand we want the club to have a backbone and not be walked over the top of, yet on the other, want them to roll over any time a player agitates for a release. That’s now how you run a professional Rugby League club.

Seriously no player should stay agaist their will or desire....Offer Galvin to Penrith or the Roosters, BUT ensure we get someone worthy as a swap in return....Just like the Storm weren't prepared to release the Fox to us if we didnt give them Talau.(what a mistake!!)....

The same JAC who is currently out for three months with a hammy and missed half of last season as well? Feel like we dodged a bit of a bullet. And look at Tommy this year. Another example of a player going on to bigger and better things once they leave. Odds are JAC would have come here and be a passenger like 99% of all our other signings.

I know the club don’t want to let on who they are talking too ( if they are even talking to anyone ) but would it be smarter for Richo to come out and at least say how his trip to England went . Just say I had positive talks with players and clubs for players going and coming and we will in time let supporters know . I think us supporters need something like that after Friday’s massacre

Wonder if uncle Nick is in his managers ears aswell.

That’s how winners stay winners …it’s not a morality play…

Whatever it takes to stay at the top

I agree it would be nice to hear something from Richo sometime soon.
In regards to signing players from the UK Super League I think we would need to be very careful as the more games I watch, the more I’m convinced the standard is very low.

 

[cqtiger]

It’s wonderful being a supporter of this club. We get flogged on Friday, 9 losses in a row, and all we hear is Ice going to Penrith a year early, Stef wants out (and playing like it), and now our future star Lachie Galvin wants out.

A great day in the morning.
