@African-Monkey Knights are awful and now destined for the bottom 4. Ponga looked disinterested.

O'Brian got saved by Ponga in 2023, when they went on a similar run to the Wahs. How he's in his 6th season as Knights coach I'll never know. Mediocrity personified.
Ponga deserves a better team and there comes a limit to when enough is enough.
-
Galvin testing open market, now there is a massive signing for someone
-
oof, Lachlan Galvin has rejected the Tigers' offer, and they've grown a back bone and said "ok, no problem" and just announced he's not staying. Also very strongly saying they won't release him.
NRL player managers are the fucking worst, with Isaac Moses the worst of the worst
-
It's a shame. The Tigers are going places and he could do some great things with an elite half like Luai, but sadly his manager has gotten into his head and now we have a young talent like Galvin who's gonna have a massive target on his head from media and fans now and it will affect his career.
I don't blame the Tigers for being pissed.
-
$5 million on the basis of prospective performance and he has the gall to say that's not enough. Fuck him.

neither do I, it doesn't help to break the mould of some teams been considered stepping stone teams, including the warriors
One of the "big" teams will win here, If he does go to another team who is not considered one of them then I would be shocked

Yeah, so Roosters here he comes no doubt.

You know, I'm not usually into the 'send him down to reserve grade' sort of behavior, but if the Tigers did and chose to prioritize Latu Fainu going forward, who could blame them?
This whole Galvin saga has dragged on and on and will have become a massive distraction in the process, and they've done everything in the process to keep him, so yeah, the Tigers should flog him off I feel. Sadly they have 2 years left with him.

@African-Monkey if only they could structure their contracts so that if he got sent down to New South Wales Cup he was remunerated appropriately.
In fact, fuck him and the horse he rode in on. He's still eligible for Jersey Flegg isn't he?

@African-Monkey I got a mate who's goes for the Knights and he wants AOB gone.
That 2023 10 game winning run is why he's still got a job. He can thank Ponga and Dom Young for saving him.

@mariner4life Isaac Moses biggest fluffybunny in the game.
-
Moses is a grub but the more that comes out about this that Galvin doesn't want to be there gives this a different twist. I wouldn't be surprised if he signs elsewhere for less
-
Id actually be surprised if he makes training tomorrow (not my phone lol)

And there's a problem right there. The whole thing becomes a problem on the playing group. They really need to find a way to cut their ties with him and his management.
Probably the one time everyone sided with on of Ricky Stuart's many outbursts in 2020 when he unleashed on Isaac Moses during the John Bateman contract saga at the time.
-
And THIS is why the NRL will never put in a transfer window, this shit generates all sorts of chat at random times of the year.
Plenty of rumour coming out. Read an article yesterday that was clearly put out by Galvin's team, and STILL made him look bad. There is a lot of talk that he was already somewhat removed from the playing group as there are huge efforts to change the culture.
The expectation seems to be he will end up at the Eels. -

-

-
