Tbh…. Is it though? He could’ve sat on that deal he was offered until November or at least told the Tigers I’m not negotiating until the end of the season, let’s take it from there.
But he didnt. Last thursday Moses told the club on behalf of Galvin NOT to table the deal because they would not be accepting any deal offered. Shane Richardson rang Galvins dad for two days and Galvins Dad didnt answer or return calls. Richo went to the board and told them and the board told him to go and call Moses again to make sure and Moses re-iterated again that they would not consider any offer.

Not sure what the Tigers are supposed to do after that? Tehy did the right thing, announced that he wont be there and are moving on.


While it’s a shit sandwich for Tigers fans to swallow, the club at least is aware exactly how to plan moving forward from April rather than November.

Yep starting this week. Im looking forward to Latu coming back from injury in a few weeks

That's shit Kulcha sorry to say. Unless the club gets on-top of it I can't see it getting any better
Mate I love it. I can see everyones argument about Turuvas post not being too classy but this club had a soft culture for way too long and so see the boys pull together and more importantly close ranks around the coach is great.

If it was just a case of Galvin not wanting to stay, or just wanting to go to Parra or even just wanting more money, Id possibly agree with your opinion on this, but Galvin, through his manager shat on his coach and also shat all over his team mates publicly. When you say that the club "cant develop me" when your coach is one of the most innovative number 6's of all time and your halves partner is a 4 x premiership winning 6,its pretty insulting and Im glad the boys have taken it personally.

When this blew up I was terrified that it was going to undermine the advance we have made in the culture at the club. Im more confident now. Beside the obvious loss of Galvins talent, this seems to be pulling the team together tighter. Will be interesting to see how it effects them on Monday.

Galvins Dad is very involved in every decision and is at most meeting with the Club. Galvins Dad was behind the talk of wanting out last year.
Who cares...he's 19. He's old enough to vote. Old enough to drive. Old enough to make his own decisions..
The tuggers have now put him on detention

Is it pulling the team together or just a group of players.
Galvin is still contracted at the club for 2 more years.

That's not good Kulcha.

Moses nor Galvin said anything in the media the club blew it up.. They could have done it quietly instead they thought they needed to come out and make Galvin the Coach Richo now the players look like gooses..

So a couple of guys that left their last club for money aren’t happy about Galvin motives?
I dont remember Luai or Turuva telling Penrith not to bother with an offer 18months before the end of their Contracts, I dont remember either of them going to the media to shit all over their coach or team mates with 18months to go on their Contracts....I do remember Turuva and Luai playing great football and winnin gmultiple premierships and earning a massive Contract upgrade......

I dont see any similarity, but you keep up the cognitive dissonance in the hope he is coming to you (he is).

If he goes to Dogs you guys will be on the Luai & Turuva train

Correct. He and Moses should have thought about that before they blew the place up (moses doesnt care but a 19yo kid is the one wearing it).

The club leaked that Galvin didnt want to stay because of the coach and club? You sure?


They could have done it quietly
When the players manager tells the club 18 months out that he is leaving and wont even look at an offer, how exactly does the club do that "quietly". Galvin and his manager could have done it "quietly" by saying that they wanted to look at the Market in November, but they have intentionally blown the club up. Moses doesnt care what it does to a 19yo kid.

I wonder what the motivation for that could be? Why does it need to happen now? Is there a club in trouble willing to throw massive $$4 and years at the kid?

instead they thought they needed to come out and make Galvin the Coach Richo now the players look like gooses..

No one knows or has any control of where he goes. (Maybe Daddy does) It's absolutely comical.
I really can't stop laughing...it's hilarious the carry on..
Happens to all clubs...
Do we actually know Galvin himself said that about the coach? Or was it Daddy or the manager?
The production being put on by the panfer prima donnas is superb
Kulcha kings in full effect

"Players were heard in the footage, which aired on the nightly news programs, calling out “meow, meow, meow” to the point where club captain Clint Gutherson was reportedly forced to step in to stop the childish noises."

That's not the team it's a group of players... When you have one of them posting his locker on the gram with "here comes the money" isn't a good look or bringing players together..

Fairly sure the Club made the first move in the media Yesterday.

The club went to Galvin not the other way around to offer him an upgrade. Yes Moses could have said nah let's talk November. But would you rather here now or in another 7 months he wasn't staying so you could start to use the money in other ways.

Bullying a 19 yr old into signing when he doesn't want to stay isn't a sign of strong culture.

Strong culture would be ripping his contract next week or max end of the year. If he doesn't believe in the coach, what's the point of keeping him?
