Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

I really hope the tigers stay strong and make him play out the next 18 months in reserve grade.

He still qualifies for Flegg.
That’s where I’d be sending him.

Surely the sensible thing to do if you didn’t want it stay was to take a look at the offer put forward by the Tigers and inform them of that you wanted to test the open market.

Not bag off the coach, whether firsthand or by way of your manager in the press. I guess playing for an early release, but for the Tigers absorbing his 250k salary to show player managers that they’re no longer there to be f**ked with is money well spent.

100% agree with all of this. He’s clearly got a deal on the table (illegally) elsewhere and wants out now. Make him rot in Flegg as DJDL says.

I think it’s $350k this year and next that he’s on. I’d say that’s definitely a price worth paying to show the player managers they’ll not be had over anymore. They’re probably paying more than that to players who are playing other clubs currently anyway.

Chammas and Reid will continue to spurt bullshit until they realease him, I don’t reckon tigers will fold with Richardson but it will get very loud

On the bench.

I actually feel the other way, I’d love to see it galvanise the Tigers. Have Galvin rotting in reserves (losing out on about $1m extra earnings he would have got in the next 18 months that he can’t earn anywhere else as he’s under contract at the Tigers), seeing his team doing really well, would be sweet justice for Galvin and Isaac Moses - maybe that would teach young blokes to not trust the snake and absolute stain on the game that is Moses.

Reckon 2 sides to this story, anyway the Tigers are dumb to drop him, likely an unpopular opinion but they need him. Benji has never had any control.

I'd put good money on him being released early and the clownshow of the nrl rolling on as normal.

They need to stop letting players and agents walk all over them. This is a good step to that.
Talent wise most Tigers fans haven’t been impressed with him this year. Thought that might be saltiness coming out

 

[bluefox68]

Well, one thing is for sure - this has really GALVINised every fan of rugby league!

He has taken over DCE as the most despised RL player out there.

 

[Peach & Apricot]

Galvin shouldn't even play NSW Cup. Send him to Glebe or Ryde-Eastwood!

 

[DJDL]

Apparently he has his own action figure now as well.

He's certainly set an example for the worst possible way to go about these things.

Why wouldn't he just say I want to focus on footy, talk to me at the end of the season? If the Tigers were smart they'd try and swap him for another player for the next season and a half. They cover his wage get the other club to cover the swapped player and try for a rep player.

Aside from Parra and Manly surely every other club would have to do some serious reshuffling to accommodate him?

 

[shadowboxer]

Now Gould has his media opinion of “it won’t last” of Galvin at Tigers. Pretty sure they said the same about The Rolling Bones..:
Dig in hard Richo - fugg the lot of them

 

[ragzouken]

Manly is my bet I think they are one of the few clubs that are heavily influence by Moses, there is a heap of them there including seibold. they have no money tho, so parra? Who knows hopefully don’t hear anything till next year f**k the lil merkin, chat gpt statement and all

Isaac Moses ----> Mitchell Moses ----> Cousins
That's a pretty heavy influence if Mitchell wants him there

 

[Special K]

Bears coming in 18 months from now is going to blow the player market apart.

The NRL really needs to get their shit together with transfer windows. Let the Bears/PNG work outside it if you have to but clubs are going to go mental - if they haven't already (see Browns deal).

 

[shadowboxer]

Both are flawed but glad WA get a team back - my golden years might be spent in the west at some stage. Hopefully the “much loved franchise” (according to Fox League) stick around, anyone’s guess how it turns out.

Just spent a week in Perth.

Some really nice places to see (esp. the beaches) and top weather at this time of the year…

Optus Stadium and the river are good value.

Glad you enjoyed it - I’ve been a lot over the years and its only drawback is the isolated location.
You can get cheap tickets these days flying into the likes of Busselton etc and highly recommend a trip.
Fantastic lifestyle, restaurants, breweries and of course beaches.
From a NRL perspective, the Reds were a fizzer from a locals point of view, but they were out and about and more of a novelty.
Imagine being at OBH down In Cottesloe and seeing Mark Geyer drunk punching on with a local. That was the scene back in the day.
Can only improve from there.
Edit - they are playing out of HBF stadium as well - which will be undergoing upgrades - damn better ground than our shit hole, even before the upgrade
