Won't be losing too much sleep over that one

 

[Tom Shines]

Anyone shedding tears over missing out on Tyrone ? A lot of people were pumping his tyres for a while , but I suspect his supporters here will move on very quickly …

Next!

I suspect only those who haven't watched him play in Super League and have been making judgements based on how his team is going were suggesting his signing.
Those of us who have been watching know we've dodged a bullet

pending what happens with Reynolds (still unsure whether our interest is truly legitimate), there's some excellent halves on the market that we should be looking at to come in and be a backup half.

Sean O'Sullivan should be top of that list.

 

[Moh]

I don't think I (or anyone, probably) was ever excited about the prospect of Tyrone - but having that sort of experience as depth for the right $ is good IMO.

Would have been handy, but don't really care either.

No need. We have King Latu.

Don’t impede him. Buy a good kicking coach. Job done.

don't worry, I'd have Latu above an O'Sullivan or Te Maire Martin on the depth chart, just thinking we need to build it out a little bit.

Doueihi ain't it.

 

[innsaneink]

Regarding questionable refereeing decisions, well what's OK for every other team just isn't OK for Wests Tigers players.
I still believe there is a clandestine push to get rid of this club, led by NewsCorp but aided and abetted by the NRL & with other media outlets & certain player managers all joining in the pile on.

I wonder if we will hear Anneslys defense (ie: excuses) on this one?

Either would be good as back up.

Let’s see how it pans out at Belmore after SOO

Story 1
Stephen Crichton and others at Belmore wants the “honest truth” from Galvin about his leaving the Tigers

Story 2
Gus Gould holds players meetings to stop Bulldogs season from spiralling

Story 3
Luai called into Blues team

I’d like to be a fly on the wall at the Blues camp when Luai and those Bulldog Blues sit around after training having a few lemonades and Crichton asks Jerome about his version of events and compares Galvin’s side of it.

 

[innsaneink]

I know right, what's even worse is they speak Galvin up better than Katoa. Galvin isn't even in the same universe as Katoa that kid is amazingly good. Katoa has all the skills and the football I.q of a guy watching everyone play league while he's on the field playing 4d chess. He's amazing, yet if you listen to the commentators it's all about Galvin. Wonder how many of the talking heads are managed by Moses and if he's got them talking him up.

Dolphins and Raiders would be.more than happy having Katoa and Strange out of the limelight and flying under the radar somewhat.

Sydney centric media working Galvout over big time

How about Luke Metcalf? Leading the Dally M’s and receives little to no fanfare. The bias towards Sydney clubs is staunch.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Speaking of Metcalf, if he goes on to win the Dally M, that would surely be the record for least amount of games played to win that award. Only 39 games. Makes the radio silence even more crazy.

Completely agree, all the media love fest for Galvin fitting into the Dogs system will crap itself. Luai will provide the truth to the Bulldog Blues.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

swap on the cards with sullivan

I also suspect a "Get Out" clause should he return to the NRL.

 

[clontarfkid]

Sullivan also said it felt like home @ the Rabbits, so hopefully he stays there.

Question is whether Bennett feels the same way to want to extend him
Then..who is gonna pick up the difference between the $550k were contracted to paying him and what Souths are prepared to pay sitting clearly in the box seat for his services according to the player
My guess is Bud is gonna take a big haircut..and we will get stung a bit too

Probably makes retaining Doueihi more important as a back-up half option that offers versatility.

Starting to look like Sullivan is the KOE #7 at this stage.

Keeping AD is a poor option imho,i have both criticized and defended him in the past but he is not a first grade player if we are serious about improving on the premiership ladder.Kicking 75% is not good enough to keep him

I mean, it would be nice, but it's not like these guys don't talk to each other outside of origin camp...
