Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I would argue that to pay 1 mill a season, a club would want to see at least 2 or 3 seasons of consistency before loading up on a marquee contract like that.

The guys you mention did not get a million bucks at 19.

Neither will Galvin. He has 1 year under his belt. By the time he's negotiating, it'll be 2 years under his belt & by the time he's in other colours, 3 years.

He'll be 21/22 by that point.

That comment was made around the time Fainu put Seyfarth under the posts with that superb ball. We have Galvin for the next 2 years and these are likely to be his best as a 6 noting natural growth.

It's for the growth factor possibility I would not throw ridiculous money at him, if he outgrows 5/8 you are going to be in a bad cap place if he moves to the forwards, but some desperate club come next Nov will take the gamble.

Listen off topic guys. You guys know more footy than me... why pink tights? In a war?

Maybe theirs was in the wash so he borrowed the missuses.

Lol they probably look at us and say how unlucky these arsehats are that there were no mobiles around in our day, deprived of the best thing since sliced bread.

I thank God there were no mobiles in my day when we'd head down to Wests rugby club after the pubs shut... I'm sure Iooked ridiculous on the dance floor

Explains our ladder situation.

I have a feeling I played against you in the dead ball area after a game at Lidcombe Oval. You ran away from.us all. Nobody could tackle you. I had some great games there. Was that you?

 

[innsaneink]

The thing I love about Galvin is his work ethic seems the kind of guy that will be first there and last to leave

You either have that or you don't it's a mind set of self discipline

I don't think he was one of the five reported to be training on a day off a few weeks back.... That said he obviously works hard wouldn't be holding club training records if he didn't

The only thing Galvin is reported for is his next suitor.

Possibly.... The grass always seemed very long but even and.not easy for running

It all makes sense now. It never occurred to me. Hence Victa PowerPlus. I got it!!!!!!

Talk of a mill a year for Galvin is premature. He has the makings of an elite player, but he hasn't had finished a second season yet.

Dylan Brown has played NRL and international footy for a long time and he has earned the right to ask for bigger money. To me, it's overs for him anyway. Remember Luai is on 1.2 mill. Either we got a bargain or Parra will overpay.

Assuming this season is an improvement on last, Galvin is worth 700k max for the next 3-4 years. He's not single-handedly winning games for us to command over a million just yet.

Parramatta dogs newcastle roosters they will all load up to get galvin once brown is off the market.
A player is worth what the market is prepared to pay and he will ne the Best player coming off contract, he will easily 1.2 million i reckon

I bet Gus has already written a six figure number on a napkin for old man Glavin, with a TBA, and I bet it’s more than Brown.

as some have said he is the family's meal ticket, he will go for plenty if we can't convince him to sign on now and extend with a payrise

I think best to go on medical reports. Facts.

Well if that's the offer good luck at your new club Gal.

I agree he will be in demand and could probably argue a few more clubs than those you mention will be interested. The issue is he will be in demand after the next 2 years because we have him. I am comfortable with that and if WTs gets two good years out of him and the additions to the roster that have been made, we should be in a much better position on the ladder. In this new age of the NRL, certainty is a luxury.

Better to get rid of Benji than Galvin. As coach. He lives in our hearts forever as a player.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

I should post WTs has Galvin for the next 2 years at a bargain rate compared to what other clubs would offer him. Plus we have one of the best halves in the game in Luai whose impact on our team will be pronounced.
