Rumours and Stuff

Nothing against the kid.

But I am not worried we have missed out.

If he didn't want to come here then why worry about it.

We may look like bridemaids again but let's be honest if the dogs don't win the comp this year

Whose getting the blame

Lachie Galvin

I reckon Gus wanted this for 2026 but circumstances have pushed this forward 6 months earlier and it has massive potential to derail there season.

Gus may have won the battle but come September he may have lost the war.

It’s interesting decision if true, we couldn’t convince a player whose manager negotiated his client the biggest contract in his control to Parra, has parents who have followed the Eels passionately, money was not an issue - so his manager was prepared to bascially ignore his biggest client and relative by ensuring his in demand young player sign elsewhere

Couldn’t make it up, unless our recruitment team have a plan B and some impressive signings on the way, should the club place their trust in them .

 

[Jake the snake]

Have it on good authority Jim and Mon low balled to begin with. These guys are a disaster

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Relax, who cares if he comes or not! Obviously a very good young player, but if he wants to go to the dogs, so be it!

What more can the club do? Sometimes there is nothing else a club can do! Plenty have knocked back Bennett!

We still have the cash and an improving side. Confident in 12 months, we would have a few quality signings that were improve the side!

In Ryles we trust!

I actually wish Galvin all the worst now. He’s a f**king idiot for going there. I hope their season goes down the toilet now and they blame Gould and Galvin.

Plan B is bring back Morgan Harper and extending Lussick

Can't say I'm shocked, shame really. This club just isn't a place players wanna play. Mitch should get his brain checked really.

Sack JIM

Come on man. That’s cope. We got rejected hard.

My shout @Stevie

I’m actually a little relieved.

I will save my rant for another post to not ruin your lovely offer. I’m in brother!

 

[Avenger]

Sack JIM

No mate. I’m not with you here. Our offer was huge. f**k the little merkin.

What's the point of having cap space if you can't land good talent.

 

[Jake the snake]

Who’s a bigger mess than the Tigers management? Our freaking idiots. Jim and his cronies are botched this club. They have no idea. Been saying it for 3 years. They are nobody and the laughing stock of the league.

 

[Jake the snake]

Nah first offer was low. Second offer maybe but they blew it.

 

[Grigor]

I'm sure crighton , Burton and kikau all mates with luia will be excited he's joining them , and now Gus will have 2 players who want to play 5/8 and still no real halfback

 

[Delboy]

Believe that’s true, it’s the fact the idiots in charge have no ability to sell the club and it’s opportunity etc. We are a big club who appointed someone 8nto the that area and position with no experience , and then backed it up by adding another list manager with no profile.

That wasn’t likely to lead to success.

We will. Be patient! Happy to stand corrected this time next year if not!

 

[mrbrightside]

Whoever we end up going with 6 from next year I will back Ryles will get someone good for us in even if it’s not a high profile name.

Just look at how Iongi and Ryley Smith have gone in key spine positions and they are still improving.

 

[Jake the snake]

Embarrassing

We can't even sell the club to our own juniors.

That's something suss at the club and it needs to be sorted out if JR is going to be successful.
