Galvin to depart Tigers

[bondi.boy]

Manly has been mentioned.
Galvin to replace DCE.
Given the alleged player mutiny at Tigers, leading players reportedly fronted coach/HO, demanding Galvin be removed from the FG team....I can't see how he'll be there much longer.

if you can be bothered to look at the write ups of NSW Cup on this website, then you will know he has been performing strongly in the lower grades.
There is also a highlights reel of him doing good things in attack in Cup.

Lots of players do very well in NSW Cup and then struggle in the NRL. Sandon Smith is a great example of that, isn't he?

[SamKerrSimp]

The irony huh?

Then Politis got surprised and upset that Moses stiffed the club on the Sua'ali'i deal to Union and wasn't informing him of how advanced talks were with RA.

Hugo has already shown that he has a kicking game, and from all reports is a solid defender as well.
The Broncos game isn’t a one off - if you can be bothered to look at the write ups of NSW Cup on this website, then you will know he has been performing strongly in the lower grades.

My personal feeling is that he will have a solid season this year in FG.

If whats being said in the media is true that Luai, Api & Pole dont want him in the side then I would say he will definitely leave.

Good. Gslvin wants out now I reckon but I wouldn't make it that easy for him.

Apparently June last year after he's played about 10 games he wanted out.

Should've pissed him off then.

[mightyrooster]

Rumour is Parramatta will get him.

[Mickie Lane]

the manager wouldn't be playing. if the club decides to make an offer then that would be good enough for me.
with him being dropped for this week there might be a chance that he leaves this year ...

Moses was already out of the game de registered as a player manager until Politis set up a meeting between Moses and Vlandys which got him back in league.

The irony huh?

[HDTONE]

Imagine you shell out $1m a season then he's not happy and wants to bail....again.

Nah clubs need to keep well clear if him and his agent.

[Rooster90]

All NRL clubs should just band together and announce that any player that signs on with Isaac Moses as their agent moving forward will not be considered for an NRL contract.

Weed him out of the game slowly.

Except Moses already owns Newcastle & Manly.....they will do whatever he suggests

A lot of faith shown in Hugo on this site after just one game. I’d like to get carried away with what we saw from that one game as well but to be realistic claiming he is our future after 80mins is probably premature. I definitely hope he is - local junior and looked very composed but we need to see him do it for the rest of the season or at least the next few months before we commit down that path. I hope he brains it as it will be a much better outcome if so than paying up for a 36yr old short term replacement.

Hugo kicked the short dropout over the sideline on the full.
Inexperience
Why was a rookie taking an important kick like that at all?
Anyway, as this year is basically a trial for the future, why not trial Rodwell etc in FG too.

[MKCS]

Yes that’s correct and I agree with you, I highly doubt any of those clubs will make a play for him bar Souffs Cody will finish there probably end of next year, Politis won’t deal with Moses Storm have Hughes/Munster and Cleary well they have hedged their bets on Taligi/Cleary Cole/Cleary unlikely, unless he’s willing to play Reggie’s which he probably won’t,

The talk is Parramatta or Canterbury will be his landing spot both clubs Ciraldo/Ryles do you think he will be a better player if he lands there?

You might on the money with Souffs though.

Yeah I'd agree with you there, Panthers, Storm and Roosters seem highly unlikely but they'd be ideal options for any young half. Ciraldo/Ryles could be good options but they are unproven so it is riskier but the Eels or Manly seem like the two clubs that would throw the biggest money at a young half.

100% it is premature, I remember when Luke Brooks debuted in the NRL in a nothing game and he dominated, set up a couple of tries and everyone thought that he was the next Joey Johns but alas he became simply a solid consistent first grader (Or less depending on who you ask)

Hugo didn't have the game that Brooks did all those years ago, he was good but I'd want him to string together an entire season or two of that before we start going on about him being our future.

I wasn’t talking about Sandon. Sammy and Hugo are our future, DCE and Galvan aren’t. And Galvan has done nothing to convince me he is as good as they claim. Rather not risk losing Hugo for the sake of a short term DCE deal in the twilight of his career. Plus, the idea of signing him doesn’t feel right to me.

I wouldn't be in for giving Galvin a million dollars a season either but lets be real, both he and DCE are better choices than Hugo and Sandon right now.
