Gus certainly hasn’t taught Ciraldo a poker face yet, very telling when he was asked about Galvin that they are right in there

Faaaaaark....I am listening to this now (yes it's 4.11am, early riser)

I have listened to most, if not all of his online content - I am a huge fan of how engaging Gus is as a commentator and the depth of his knowledge - and far out, he has always wanted to make it very clear the Dogs wouldn't sign Galvin. It will be crazy if they do

Last night he also put out a tweet along the lines of “Anything happen today in rugby league ? I’ve been busy all day”

They are always economical with the truth... and downright dishonest...

Galvin's rhetoric is he wants the best coaching, and a team competing for the premiership - Ryles is a Rookie coach, the Eels have been awful - I guess the upside would be Moses at 7, and the kid at fullback looks the real deal...

In contrast, the Dogs are top of the table, Ciraldo has a few years more than Ryles, Gould is a league savant, he plays with Burton, and his mentor is on staff...

Will be interesting, he'll probably end up with the Roosters lol

It's only been a few years since the Warriors fans would be keen to sign him. Sacked from another club, we'd look at his record, look at our own dire coach, look at who else is in the market, and go 'yes!'

And most important he might come cheap.

Thank God we're settled with a good coach now. It took us eleven years from 2011 to 2023 but we're there now.

Tbf if he really is after the best coaching (fk that still makes me wanna puke) and a competitive team, I reckon the Roosters tick more boxes than either the Dogs or Eels.

A logical halves pairing with Walker, an experienced coach who’s also coached successful halves, and as a club they're almost always in the mix.

Whether Uncle Nick can bury his beef with Moses, or whether its too late cos DCE is already signed as suspected, who knows. But if they got past all that, they'd make a very compelling case IMO.

Signing a 36 year old over a 19 year old is all about short-term strategy. The Chooks should look to the future.

Will be interesting, I suspect Uncle Nick is flexible around what he's said, just like Gus is... I have no idea how it will settle, but Dogs wouldn't be a surprise imo

I would put better than even money on 2027 DCE being like 2024 SJ- the spirit might be there but the legs will have checked out.
