"Overrated."

"Yes, we went hard for Galvin. Yes, if Ryles sees someone as the answer, he might go for it. Yes, Wiz's "bench fantasy" is a scene out of a LaLaLand movie.
But once more, Luai & Galvin aren't the same, right? A $1.1-1.5m six with POs?  Mmmmm. Would…"

"Arguably the best winger in the comp when he's in his happy place , on what 600 or 650k?  Ryles needs his head examined if he thinks that's overs.  
Unfortunately me thinks Ryles coaching inexperience was what drove Lomax's decision.  He went…"

"No, you find a soulution .  Real clubs manoeuvre around this shit all the time with unsettled players. We offer him a bump up, or make a deal beneficial for both parties.  As in , champ you give us a great 2026 and if you still wish to leave , we…"

"Lomax was on a deal of all deals in our favour.  Probably the only player in the squad outside of rookies that we were getting his paycheque worth out of.  When a blokes on less than Matto and is a current Australian and NSW rep player , it's not in…"

"Woof "

"Exactly , LB.  But don't ruin their fantasy mate,  we were going to bench Galvin next year when these future immortals were ready. "

"Go back to the very first time it was labeled a cuckold deal and look who wrote it.  It's not like I've jumped on the cuckold bandwagon.  I even recycled my  Galvin cuckold meme with the Bronco mounting Peasant whilst the Eel watched in the corner,…"

"Though still we went hard for Galvin despite having Fletcher and Lorenzo. "

"You nailed it right there - the idea of being like other clubs. I think the word I'm looking for is to covet. Everyone on here wants what someone else has got and they think if we get it (a player, an administrator, a coach etc) we are instantly…"

"Look I like what Ryles was doing up until this point.  The whole " we're in are you " moment where he sidelined Brown oozed culture shift , but then he goes and spreads his arse cheeks for Anasta and his boy who needed a place to stay.  The kid may…"

"It's a stroke of genius. Being so bold to offer a player only a 1 year deal , which is kinda unheard of with a player at this point of his career , and low and behold , it's exactly what he was after. 
 
Crazy hey.  And now , looks like we've struck…"

"HOE do you think the Eels believe  they can do big names, or are you suggesting they release their interest  in big names to perhaps attempt to keep fans / members happy to a degree, believing they are out of their depth so to speak. Or we are…"

"It's not just that, LB. Luai will cost more than Galvin. Then, if he demands POs, it's game over. Can't see it happening. Poor value, potentially.
We gush over the big names, but do we want to look like the Titans? They have lifestyle advantages…"

"We went all in for Galvin, we had Fletcher and Lorenzo and still went for Galvin. So if a great player is a chance and Ryles likes them they will go for them."

"Your right Eel Boy. It was Anasta saying Laui was thinking that's why I have get out clauses. 👍"
