        I'm throwing Walker into 6 next year if there isn't a replacement ready made on the market.

          %100 Walker 6 now and you pivot to developing our young halves but spend the bucks on the forward pack and give Walker and the young blokes a platform to play off.

          Shit doesn't go your way , accept and adapt.

          We have points in our backs with plenty of speed , a quality 3/4 would be perfect but there's definitely a team here.

  I am pissed about a few things:

  • How does Gus always get what he wants. Fair game it may be but fuck it's annoying when it's against your club. Whether it's his power in the media or ability to convince people with utter shit.
  • How does our RR team always fail ffs. We got Lomax but from memory was there any competition? JR has been doing a good job but nothing will come from it if the people above him our shit
  • I respect Galvin for deciding to chose money over being a better footy player. The money the tigers threw at him were crazy. But how the fuck does he think dogs are a better place than eels. Yes dogs are building a great system but their halves have been average. When have they developed a half recently lol. Wakeham? Lewis? Averillo? lol the list goes on. Burton has barely grown as a player since leaving Panthers. He has always had a big boot and a decent running game. But every other part of this game is still average. Zero playmaking, short kicking or accuracy. Sexton is just fitting into a dogs system and always had the skills he is showing now. Titans were just shit. Eels have developed Moses into a top halfback who won an origin decide in qld. And as much as we give Brown shit, he is the NZ 5/8 and was key for them beating Australia 2 years ago. Something just doesn't feel good about it.

    I'll have a go at this.

    When he Galvin says better situation maybe he sees Ciraldo and the Dogs as a better option than JR and Parra when it comes to the mentioned.

    Your right about the Dogs not developing halves but by the sounds of things Gus has overhauled there off field and they are a different beast than what they were.

    End of the day Gus is one of the most influential figures in the game we just don't or have ever had that or not for a very long time.

    As soon as he got involved in this saga the odds of us landing Galvin nose dived big time.

    Agree 👍 going to the Dogs is a huge mistake. He will regret this decision

    The dogs are leading the comp and Parra are languishing at the bottom and have been for a couple of years.

    That's why the Dogs is a better place to go to than the Eels.

    Why leave one cellar dweller to join another. If he wanted to play for a bottom 4 team, he would've taken the money and stayed at the Tigers.

    If you are given the choice of playing for two cellar dwellers or a team with a real chance at winning a premiership, which one are you taking.
