Rumours and Stuff

Meanwhile Kapow liked a post and had his contract terminated.

I’m not listening to that, Casper.

Tigers will want something

Dylan can play out the rest of the year with them

I would ask Benji if he wants to dust off Matto's locker for his return.

Genuine question, say rumours are correct and Galvin is coming. And we get him early.

Where do we play Drown/Galvin? probably want Galvin in the halves to start building a combo with Moses.

So where does Drown play? I don't think we can put him in the centres as that also prevents combos developing.

We could release Drown, but do knights have the cap space? And does Drown even want to leave early.

May not even be an issue, he could be dogs bound. Or there is no early release.

Interesting times.

It’s all bullshit, @the phantom menace stated Galvin isn’t coming until 2027. He knows his shit.

Just on Pahulu it's a 3 way choice eels , Storm or knights , he'd be a moron to go to the knights and a fool to pick us over the storm

Funny how the Storm always have plenty of cap space for whoever comes onto the market and now they're stockpiling forwards after already stockpiling spine players as well. Nothing to see here!

I reckon they’ll just want cash and not to pay Galvin another cent. I doubt they’ll take Brown unless it’s for free (actually min wage because they have to pay him something to have him in NRL squad). They may take Piss-Paul if Knights release him though (which seems even more foregone conclusion).

If it were to occur, up to end of Origin whilst Moses doing that
6. Brown
7. Galvin

And be testing the Newcastle/Brown waters about going post Origin. Otherwise:
6. Galvin
7. Moses
3./14./Reggie 6. Brown or wherever he fits best

*he’s

 

[Avenger]

Back to reality.

Galvin to sign with us prior to June 30. Brown to be moved into the centres.

We will end up paying a transfer fee and offer them Matterson if they want him for no fee.

 

[oldmancraigy]

no leaks regarding Galvin?

There is definitely information

 

[Grigor]

Only club that can stockpile faologo , Pezet , Anderson and sparingly use big Nelson but nothing to see as we need a strong Melbourne side

Newcastle???

Most likely that is what happens, and if you take a look at Knights rumblings, they seem like they have players moving....

The Wests Tigers are poised to grant Lachlan Galvin permission to negotiate with rival clubs after a board meeting on Monday.

The Tigers will grant Galvin permission to open negotiations with prospective teams before the November 1 free agency date, but with conditions.
Sources with knowledge of the situation talking on the condition of anonymity due to confidentiality told the Herald one of those conditions will be reconsidering the legal case against the club following allegations of bullying against Galvin.
The other condition set to be put on any formal permission to negotiate with rival teams will be an agreed transfer fee which is still being determined.

The Tigers board met on Monday and are keen to put the Galvin saga to bed but chief executive Shane Richardson wants a positive outcome for the club.
Richardson declined to comment when contacted on Wednesday morning.

3 way swap . Done deal

 

[Snoochies]

Do we just give them Dylan?

 

[84 Baby]

Which means at best (and most likely) they just want frivolous accusations, that there is a chance (probably minimal) they lose, to just go away (and also not lose any further PR), and at worst the accusations are true.

 

[T-Boon]

Let's say it was going to happen except that Brown refused to move to Newcastle now and that cost us Galvin to the Dogs. I'd say the players let alone the fans would be furious.

 

[T-Boon]

Got to think the Knights wish they could turn back time and go after Galvin rather than Brown.

 

[mrbrightside]

If Galvin joins this year, I’d say we need to immediately start building a 6. Galvin / 7. Moses combination — set it up for the future. Move Dylan Brown to left centre for the rest of the season. Only release him if we’re getting someone from Newcastle that we actually want in return.

You also need to have the second row/centre/winger combinations having Brown at centre doesn't do that.

Wests want KPP for 2026 Knights want Brown for 2026 we want Galvin for 2026.

Looks simple doesn't it?

You can’t just give them a player. The player would have to want to go there and the Tigers would have to want him.

Plus why would they want Dylan for half the year..
