AN ALTERNATIVE TO GALVIN

I'm not a huge fan of Galvin primarily because I think he has big ego and because who his manager is , having your halves both managed by Isaac Moses is a recipe for future disaster and we simply don't have the management who could handle Isaac if he decided to pull one of his tricks . 

 

The other thing is that it is unlikely that Galvin will be available until 2027 .  Longi has all the skills and ability to be a outstanding 6 which then leaves a vacancy at fullback ,  I would do whatever it takes to get Selwyn Cobbo as it's a safer bet paying big dollars for Cobbo than it is for Galvin .

        • True BUT everytime I see him go around the more I think his a 5/8 - good news is Ryles has options 

          • How? The kid has never played 6 other than Tonga U18's. Pretty much every good Fullback has skills that can translate to 6, Tedesco looks like it, Pap has those elements too. If you have a good pass on you and can run those are skills needed for a 6. But doesn't mean it is best for them to go to 6.

            • The points have been made LB, your case was well made, no need to repeat.

  • Hasn't Papalii been playing 5/8 in NSW cup? We might not need to look for one if he's being transitionied into the halves, leaves more $$ to find the game breaker we need 

  • We can afford both Cobbo and Galvin and have a couple million left to buy 2 or 3 fowards and let's go win that elusive premiership (what are they waiting for) go for it !!!

  • I like Cobbo, I'm unsure about him as fullback. I like what Longi is doing at fullback so un-willing to move him at this stage.

    Two weeks ago we might have been getting Galvin this year and he was taking the Tigers to court for bullying, WTF happened to all that?

     

    • No need to move longi from fullback cobbo can play any position in the backs and better than a couple of our current backs 

      • Cobbo would not leave Brisbane for anything less than to play Fullback.

    • That was a media story SE, nothing to do with us.....we cannot legally even talk to him untill November. Of course the managers will be doing their work behind the scenes.

  • I'll say no to Iongi going to 5/8.  He's a fullback and if you're going to put him in the front line, it's going to take a lot of work to change his body shape for the extra defensive work.  That's a major commitment to turn him into a 6.   He's too young to experiment with.  Leave him at 1.
