I thought that was great. Luai definitely has something special. I think he has been taking a back seat to Galvin apart from last week.

My expectations are though high. I expect a marquee NRL player to win us games regularly.
It’s naturally expected that a marquee player aspiring to be a top draw game manager who is on over $1m is instrumental in winning us big games.He needs to be the MOM or at the very least in the top 2 or 3 players tomorrow.

The first half last week was Jaromes best half since coming here. Galvin is averaging 11 more touches a game then Luai which should really be switched around. I'm still hanging out to see a Latu/Luai halves combo and see how they mesh.

I want to see Latu stay fit for a couple of months and see him and Luai playing consistent footy together. If Galvin is in the team Benji has to tell him he should be playing second fiddle. Galvin pisses me off. He has way too many mistakes in his game.

It'll be very interesting to see what the Tigers do when Latu is available, which should be soon hopefully.

If they don't pick him to partner Luai then the club is sending a message that they will be sticking with Galvin, no matter what, for the next year and a half. Basically they'll be saying that they believe Galvin is better than Latu, and that Latu isn't worth the chance at first grade, even though Galvin will be out the door at the first available opportunity.

I've made it clear that as soon as Latu is right to go he should be brought in to 1st grade and Galvin dumped back to reggies. If we don't do this, I'd expect Latu to request the option to look elsewhere. For me, it's better to look after the future than the present, if the present doesn't want to be here.

If they do keep Galvin in first grade we'll probably end up losing him and Latu. A cynical person might then think that Galvin was being kept in 1st grade to avoid having the threat to sue the club turn into an actual court case.

Luai has been one step above shit this year.
That long haired cocksuka needs to start playing football and cutout the posing.

He looked good last week but that was his best performance. We need significantly more from him.

Luai is good but he's also used to playing in teams where most if not all players put in and had a dig. I still think most halves these days are massively over rated.
