Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

The sad thing is , he might get to mid 30s and go 2 ways about his wasted footy career . “It’s everyone else’s fault “ or “what have I done !!!?”.
He’s good enough to get that generational wealth going , that looks like it’s starting to come into the nrl , and really break the cycle .
But he’s too knee deep in that culture .
He might have some serious mental health issues as well . Like bi polar or personality disorder or something , that’s gone undiagnosed.
anyways… I wouldn’t say we are desperate for centres . He’s just infinitely better than anything we have . But if the guy is a mess of a human being . He’s really got to sort his shit out . It’s not the 80s or 90s where people will let this shit slide because you can play footy . They will just move onto the next player .

Loose cannon it seems , shame

Couple of us said this 2 years ago and were howled down, every one has an opinion I guess.

Haha so 2 seasons later he had 1 good.
game and you feel justified

Not having a go at you TB....many here do this

This place sometimes...we need to replace thumbs ups with brownie points

Last year, I recall Bronco's stating they would need to let players go for next year, And Cobbo looked like being one of players going, Then when Mam got himself into trouble and the hunt rumours started it looked like Cobbo & Mam would both go.

BUT THEY KEPT THEM ALL.

Hate to put Bronco's top 17 and Our top 17 alongside each other and attach estimated values of those players, think there might be big big differences.

 

[tigerballs]

Yes but they haven’t signed him.
Your halfback mate is full of shit.

No, they haven't signed him. They intend to. And they usually have their way.

Surely there’s half a dozen clubs intending to, including us.

Like I said, it's interesting that Ponga said no, maybe because he'd agreed to something else. DCE appears to have taken the best option. Maybe Galvin does the same.

Best option might be replacing DCE at Manly

Maybe your passed on info is all incorrect as well?

 

[liltiger]

Like you, I thought we needed this guy. But, so happy we didn't sign him. Clearly a dimwit and a slow learner.

What happened, I tried to backtrack to see but it's not there anymore, what did he do?

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

It's interesting though that they seem to have been rejected by Ponga ( maybe ) and said half, although said half has a luxury lifestyle and plenty of incentive to stay in Qld.

Could be why Benji mentioned Latu as too good for reggies and needed to find a spot for him. I think we will keep plugging away at Galvin until nov 1 then our focus will shift to Latu.

We got some real sleuths on here … Sherlock Holmes stuff,,,

And I don't think my halfback mate is full of shit. He told me something I thought might be of interest to this forum. Something I probably should have kept to myself.
I hear loads of stuff that I no longer bother to post in here because there's always someone, in something titled rumours and suggestions, that is always ready to denigrate anything posted in good faith.
I'll leave it up to you to know everything in future.

Just use your imagination...thats what this threads all about

Good enough to right some books about and eventually a series, movies lol.

Different mail for Rob Bechara on that Wests Tigers Life podcast. His mail from a source at the Bulldogs who were apparently in for Galvin was he's about to extend with us. Watch the first 10 mins of their pod for that mail.

Unfortunately, the nature of the forum judgement is if you are right you are god like, wrong or unproven and you cop scorn, if there was no rumours in this thread it would be very boring.

Any TikTokkers out there that watched this? No NRL according to Mayfair.

Well that just shows that the club did the right thing in seemingly passing on him through the agreement they made with him. Did the right leg work before offering the contract, and avoided a lot of pain in the long run not just with him, but the hassle and distraction that it would have caused Terrell as well. Taylan wrecked it for himself.

Like when the Roosters explained they were able to sign Spencer Leniu because JWH was retiring. And a few months later JWH announces he’s going around for one more year….

1000% agreed mate.

That may be correct as well. I'm just passing on what was told to me. I'm sure about 11 clubs think they have him as good as signed.
