Does anyone have an interest in Gallen's fight?
How will he go?
Part of me wants him to do well but another part of me wants to see him get touched up.

"Ben Rogers is head of recruitment, technically it is up to him."
"Yeah i can see why 100% would be unfair with other clubs complaining despite not losing a player. 50% is fair as not whole thing but better than nothing."
"mon is the football manager so it would be up to him"
"lb 50% would be fair as a lot of lower grade eg outside the top 30 players have bonuses for nrl games played"
"What has it got to do with MON."

"Yup. We've had 0 muscle issues so far this year from memory."
"Almost all have been contact injuries. Can't really do much about that."
"While MON is at the club it won't matter who coaches the squad. We're still a sinking ship. "
"At some point we have to wonder why the players are dropping like flies. It's there something wrong with our strength and conditioning programs?"
"This title or blog should be posted every week till the prick gets sacked."
"You would think the gm of football would already be all over it. Sounds like JR had to ask him to have a look at it. "
"woof"
"It of course should be a thing. Make it like 50% of the salary. So Hopgood is say on $500k for argument sakes, you get $250k of cap relief for the year. Or if they are that worried about it, make it you can only get relief for one player and…"

Love how you signed off at the end,almost like a real journalist.Cute.
Will you watch the fights Eggy?
I wish I was going, I think it would be a good night.
I do love a good fight.Hunt looks like he's copped a pounding in the ring before,and after a few ass whoopings you get to when you either doing it for love or for the money ,and Hunt to me looks like a bloke who loves a good pounding.
I expect Gallen to be knocked out. Hunt is a serious fighter. He may not have the chin he once did but the dude has crazy knockout power. Hunt just threw a punch at Gal at their presser today. Gal has never really fought a serious fighter, the majority of his fights have been against footy players. Hunt has 20 years of fighting experience behind him. And it's not like Gallen has a lot of rounds to tire Hunt out. It's only a six round fight so that probably suits Hunt.
Yes Hunt can throw them, some look like they don't connect much but gee the opponents feel it.
Will make for an interesting watch nonetheless.
I figure Gallen is going to try and keep him at a distance but Hunt is a brawler, likes to get in tight and throw them. Gallen has relied on his fitness and staying on the outside to win previous fights. That may not work with Hunt whose experience will probably allow him to close distance more efficiently.
Gallen will not see the walk up knockout that Hunt is famous for.
who won this fight?
