Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I bet Galvin will withdraw with an injury ( fake but probably broken Ego ) to save face.

I will be at Commbank early now to just watch KOE and see how wonderboy goes.

That’s fine he slowly disappears backwards , if injured take time to recover and come back via lower / lower grade plenty time about 18 months

I think you mean the Wests Mgers of the HRL.

That’s exactly how I would have played it if I was Benji . Pretty smart play . You hope the playing group would have your back , because of all the culture building you’ve been doing . But for the guys to come out , and be like “we got you Benji! ” .
That shits galvanising ! That’s how teams come together !
I reckon the boys are going to be pumped up for Monday . They’re gonna want to prove a point !

I agree 100%. Benji and Richo need to be clever handling this issue, its an emotional thing but if you got dumped in the worklplace because your fellow staff didn't want you there you can imagine what the fall out would be.
They should tell him he is free to leave, initiate a player swap for compensation and put this bed and not let it drag on. We should put in an offer for Fogarty, could be a good fit for us.

That's why I hate the drop them to reserve grade mentality. Reserve grade isn't a punishment. How demoralising for career reserve grade players

It's not reserve grade - its the Wests Magpies 1st grade. Representing his local team at the highest grade they have.

For the next 18 months

We don't need Fogarty. Luai is our 7,Latu is our 6. Back up we have Doueihi, Mason and Falls. That's decent options in even the top teams.

Crowd of 300 if that the players will be able to hear clearly anything from the punter's

At least he will clearly hear every word the crowd say's,could be a very humbling experience for him

1. Heath Mason 2. Izaac Tu’itupou Thompson 3. Solomona Faataape 4. Josh Feledy 5. Alexander Lobb 6. Lachlan Galvin 7. Kurt Falls 8. Kit Laulilii 9. Tristan Hope 10. Vaka Aho 11. Tony Sukkar 12. Elie El-Zakhem 13. Charlie Murray 14. Bailey Hodges 15. Jaxson Rahme 16. Reuben Porter 17. Eiden Ackland 18. Jayden Tanner

Be nice if the cup players came out and said no thanks Lachie - we don't want you.

Good news ... Haywood, Godinet & Taupau-Moors on the bench in Jersey Flegg this week.

No Makasini yet huh

So proud the players demanded Galvin moved out of the squad, shows the players are all in with Benji and the admin. I really think this will drive the squad closer togeather.

we hold the cards now. Galvan and his team won’t want to hang about for a season and two thirds. For a 19 year old kid that’s forever, particularly in a hostile environment. But we can hold him and play him in lower grades, backup for injury, etc. and basically just use him up. If a rival club wants him early then a top drawer player swap. A transfer fee might appeal to Richo as a financially responsible CEO, but fans don’t really care about that. Fans care about wins and player signings.
If anything, the dressing room will be even more motivated now to stick it up the critics…and to show Galvan he is not required.

How much money is the kid on this year and next? if it is only 250k i say play him in Reggies and teach everyone a lesson.

 

[innsaneink]

Geddit? Vanish? Staines?

Maybe Mr Sheen knows

Sorry.. ill leave now

 

[liltiger]

As angry as we all are, Tigers just need to be careful they still meet standard workplace protocols so Galvin cant complain to the RLPA.

Screw the rlpa, we keep getting screwed because of the stupid system they advocate for. They helped cause this mess.

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon is NOT a convicted Rapist.

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon is soon to get all charges against him quashed by the courts and his political accuser looks like facing charges and possible disbarment. Hope this Derangement pop in stops as the rest of his post was good

That's a fair statement but also semantics when it's being used as a quasi punishment

Punishment - he's being paid considerably more than other players at that level. He journey to that grade reflects his actual performances - once the allure of having to bend to his whims has worn off.

Apparently has GPS school rugby according to the lads at Wests Tigers Faithful.

Man just wait on the half recruitment stuff imo . AD will do a job for the next month , and I’m highly confident Fainu will prove to be every bit as good as Galvin if not more .
Galvin screams “good stats bad team guy” . Like I said earlier today , if the games we won which isn’t many over the last 2 years how many of them were down to how amazing Galvin was ? Maybe the line break to put Bula over game . But who’s to say we don’t win that game anyway .
He will be a generational forward when he moves there , now he’s like an over hyped Cross between Campese and Curtis Sironen .
