Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I couldn't see any comments on this , but it sounds like Tom Flegler has the same or similar issue as Simon Dwyer
Sad to hear ...he seemed a nice young bloke and talented footballer
Oh no, 😟 ,, jeez I hope not, Tom is a hell of a football player and seems like an absolute champion of a young man.. I really hope he sorts this out and gets back on the field asap… 🙏🤞
 
On Galvin….. to say I’m disappointed would be a massive understatement. I’ve always liked Galvin as a player and his maturity on the field has always blown me away, however his maturity off the field has been nothing short of disgusting.

For a club to hand him his debut at 18 and give him the keys to our team knowing there’s gonna be an uphill battle with a team coming from back to back spoons and a roster set to be bolstered in 2025 with Luai (bought to partner him) and Turuva. Also considering no other team in the NRL would’ve handed him his debut as quickly as we did to also give him the opportunity to prove to the league he was ready for that leap.

To then be 8-9 games into his career and to start making demands he wants out immediately and as publicly as he has to allegedly blurt it out around the whole locker room has stunned me.

From a mail perspective don’t let the media companies fool you….. this is ALL about money. Moses has good connections in the media and I can assure you the planted reasons of anything else is just to distract you from the fact he can make double if he went elsewhere for 3 years and most likely to a club winning football games.

Richo isn’t Pascoe….. Lachie won’t be going anywhere and if he does it’ll be in 2027. I expected this from the slimily Moses but not from the kid. Utterly disappointed.
Sad reality is no one expects any different from Moses and even with his manager ban he’s not going to change
Would be interesting to know if any teams that enabled him during the ban have been bitten yet l

Moses has done the kid a disservice. If his footy suffers from all the external noise and he ends up back in lower grades his development could be put back years. That bloke appears to be an A grade flog.
How it affects him in the future really only depends upon form
Look at Ben hunt with all his contract drama

Not gonna happen
Agreed , and can someone start their own thread for “players moved on, or that I think will be” as this is the signings suggestions and rumours thread and I am sick to death and then some of the usual suspects and their paranoid trolling BS constantly whining that they think this player or that will be at abother club next year and also enough of the sack Benji bs .. FFS this is supposed to be a supporters forum, with signings and rumours for signings that you feel would improve the club not endless trolling... People are entitled to write what they want, but at least put it in the appropriate thread if you have any decency. i hoped this forum would be a place where intersting conversation about potential players in theory or even hope would be thought provoking or even just put a bit of hope that a fellow supporter has a bit of inside knowledge that we could look forward to.. rant over … ☹️

I take all the reports about blurting it out in the dressing room with a grain of salt. Probably a load of crap.

We really don’t know what Galvin is thinking. Moses is using his usual slimy tactics through the media.

I think this whole thing is just about more money. And when he looks around and sees Latu and Bud on 3 times what he’s on, of course that’s going to have him feeling a certain way.

Just offer him more money. If he takes it great, if he doesn’t then cya later. It’s not like it matters anyway. This club is cursed.

And he went into the coaches office every week to sit down and find out what he needs to improve on to get into the NRL team.

This is the character we need.

I said it last year, we need to recruit more on personality and character.
If we were successful and had choice yes.
We are not successful and don’t have choice, we don’t even have 13 good standard NRL players in our squad.
 
Using Galvin and Bula as trade bait, this team could be achievable for 2025.
Much more experienced and looks a genuine top 8 team to me.

  1. James Tedesco / Heath Mason
  2. Samuel Stonestreet / Charlie Staines
  3. Taylan May / Starford To’a
  4. Justin Olam / Onitoni Large
  5. Sunia Turuva / Heamasi Makasini
  6. Jerome Luai
  7. Jayden Sullivan
  8. Stefano Utoikamanu / Peter Hola
  9. Api Korisau / Talyn Da Silva
  10. David Klemmer / Tim Johanssen
  11. Samuela Fainu / Billy Burns
  12. Angus Crichton
  13. Brandon Smith
  14. Latu Fainu / Adam Doueihi
  15. Fonua Pole / Alex Seyfarth
  16. Alex Twal / Sione Fainu
  17. Royce Hunt / Jordan Miller
Development Contracts
Kit Laulilli
Chris Faagatu
Luke Laulilli
Tony Sukkar
Solomon Saukuru
Zac Clarke

** You would think Stef would be much more keen to stay playing in this type of team and it’s clear the Roosters don’t want Teddy past 2025. I know he’s ageing and slowing down, but I still think his presence would be of great benefit and in addition Luai would be a magnet to help sign others such as Angus Crichton and Royce Hunt etc
I think the Roosters would be very tempted to release Teddy early in return for Bula and Galvin.
That’s almost 2 teams
