Rumours and Stuff

100% we table a 5 year deal for Galvin unofficially.

Problem is we wouldn’t acquire him until 2027. I’m pretty sure he is contracted for 2026.

================
The race to sign Parramatta Eels half Dylan Brown has exploded with reports two NRL clubs have tabled monster $13 million offers.

According to CODE Sports, a second unnamed club had joined the Newcastle Knights in offering Brown a 10-year deal worth $1.3m per season — yet the new club has threatened to pull its offer if it is publicly named.
=================

So the media is happy to leak everything about our club, but will protect this club ?

Can we now at least all agree that what Brown and his management are doing is a f**king circus. Enough of the but ‘I don’t see he is doing anything wrong’ bullshit.

The guy is a f**king one trick pony and a clown. I’ll be celebrating if he leaves. Seriously just f**k off already. And the Orr clan can get f**ked too. Not you @Gronk you are fine this time. I don’t even remember where you stood with him. I know Suity deep throated him a few times.

When was the last time a marquee player left the Storm? Adam Blair? Don’t say Tino. He isn’t one.

Tino is elite and 100% marquee

I am going to say it's either the Dogs or Dragons.

Like I said this is more about Browns management having 10 years on income than them worrying about their clients best interest.

I will leave the decision of his value to our club, Ryles and MON.

As to him being garbage, if he was he wouldn't be getting massive offers.

Yep agreed glad our club is now not bowing down to moronic player managers.

Was he when he left the storm?

I didn’t say he was garbage. I’ve been saying he is overrated. There is a big difference.

 

[Eelementary]

Lomax didn't think so

No matter how bad you think it is, there is always somewhere worse

I agree.

I'm glad Brad is gone - not because I didn't like him, but I think his time was up -, but he was able to attract some decent players in his tenure with us.

OK, if he was that overrated, he wouldn't be getting $13m over 10 year offers.

What I think is overrated is this forum's hate for him. Other teams seem to be excited about him as a 25/26/27 year old and clearly think he will be top shelf elite player.

 

[Eelementary]

He'd be silly to turn down massive money like that.

But, on the other hand, he'd be silly to go to a club like that, on a deal like that; that club cannot possibly be competitive with one player chewing up that much of the cap.

Hate is a strong word. I don’t hate anyone, not even you, @Gronk.

To justify that kind of money, you need to be elite both on and off the field, and I don’t think he’s achieved either. Being charged with sexual touching, caught on video having sex in public, and meowing at reporters doesn’t sit well with me or Ryles, for that matter, which is why he’s not part of the leadership group.

Parra not matching other offers and potentially losing Brown is more about being mindful of how much we are budgeting in our spine than anything else imo.

Browns comes across non chalant and not a student of the game, which I think puts a lot of fans off him.

Waiting a year is fine. We could find an interim half for 2026.

Well if it gets him $13m, I don’t think he’s been entirely wrong, but I agree with the circus part and for that I wouldn’t be offering him a dollar over his option value. Dare I say his option, he could take it or leave it…

Yep.

Us not matching offers is more about balancing our cap, rather than it being a reflection on what we think about the player.

My gut is that we 100% want him to stay and be part of the next 5 years.
