Galvin and signings

Any word if his going to come to Parra. I understand his going to be a very good player. But if his not going to be leaving until the end of next year is he really worth it.

Need Brown's replacement long term soon we are looking very promising give Ryles time. 

Why not look at some promising juniors coming through the ranks.

    • Tigers won 2 games in a row when Galvin came back but were very lucky with a few ref calls and Sua dropping the ball over the line for 12 point turnaround last weekend.  They are in 8th but lot better sides below them will overtake them soon enough.

      Once the losses add up and pressure builds, comments like Luai coming out saying he doesn't like Galvin but will play with him will come back to haunt them.

      There is also another young half in Fainu that Luai said he wants to play with.  If he comes back and plays well in Cup or off the bench tigers will let Galvin leave to keep Luai happy 

      • I feel like The Tigers are letting Luai turn them into the Western version of Souths. Instead of Aborigines they'll be the FOBs club. They'll be all boomboxes and big giggling idiots to replace the embarrassing goanna and wobbling legs dances.

  • That's a shame can't hear what's happening. Just be good to start looking to the future with someone new next year and not waiting on a signing that's a long way till it happens. 

     

    Brown is trash without Moses enjoy that signing Newcastle. Even the Johns brothers believe his not worth it. 

    • Alfred, do you think he will play for NZ again. he was man of the match when they won the World Cup.

      More to the point  he is not playing well enough IMO to be selected for NZ again. Doesn't mean he wasn't at a point in his career and that is where your comments should settle and in theory it has nothing to do with Moses, notwithstanding him looking better for the addition of him.

      I believe we burn't him out last year, with the ACL tear and him trying to be all things to all people. I am glad he is going to Newcastle in those circumstances but it is another example of player burnout based on expectations. He busted his guts for Parra last year and copped nothing but shit for doing so.

      We have very short memories on here!

      • Agree 100% Poppa. I thought he was one of the best last year. I would have liked him to stick around, but I don't' blame him for taking such a lucrative deal. Having said that , if they land Galvin for 26 (or 27) they have picked up a great signing. Galvin is something special, he seems to have so much time with the ball and he plays with such maturity, it's hard to believe he is only 19. 

      • Injury free it's Brown and Hughes the starting halves for the kiwis and that's not even a question.Browns current form is improving because the moving parts around him are improving.

        I mean JR.mentioned  this over a month ago in a presser.I've seen this happen before around a player and the teams form.Fans have been doing this for years they miss the bullet  points and join the herd and are heavily influenced by the media commentary.

    • The Johns brothers aren't paying the money and the hierarchy at Newcastle obviously think different.Browns trash without Moses I think you need to add the team also is too don't forget that bit as this is a team game after all.

  • It's starting to look very likely that Galvin is going to sign with the dogs. They still haven't extended Sexton and Gus has been very cagey about the situation, he also posted the following message, 

    Plenty happening at the moment... things are bubbling away behind the scenes....interesting few weeks ahead.

    • I wouldn't be surprised fark it's a curse the media implication that he's a sure thing to come to Parra.
