Poor player, however, I am thinking this rumour has come up because SoS to the Dragons is on the cards, following his dad.
Is it confirmed Peter is going to the Dragons? Or more to the point, is he definitely leaving us? I've heard lots of talk but not seen anything official.

I like this type of deal for TPJ. It doesn't hamstring us because its short term, and its a need of depth for us this year.

We get to have a good look at him, to see if he has changed his ways. If he has, we may have first crack at keeping him longer. If not, he just goes.

Probably had a bit of money in the cap that has to be used under NRL regulations.

TPJ? When did Wolff get the best out of him? Wayne got the best out of him a long time ago.

Galvin has asked for a release from the Tigers. I'd love to see him in our 6 jersey, next to Katoa. That would be a halves combo to last us the next 10 years.

He asked but was knocked back, Has he asked again? He was given a caning vs St. George yesterday.

They have Luai coming. They can resign Sezer, they have Bud Sullivan on good coin. they have plenty of options.

I think the Luai signing is part of the reason he wants out.

In the Tigers defence, they signed him before they knew they had a player in Galvin.

Agreed, but not his doing. The mistakes some of their players made were next level.

The catching the ball and stepping out, the intercepting and getting taken out were coach killers.

I like Benji, and don't mind his philosophy around work life balance. However, when your side is coming last and playing like dogshit, going on a mid-season holiday is a bad look.

I reckon Galvin and Katoa would be a gun halves pairing for the next 10 years.

think galvins issue is more he wanted to be rest to recover from his hand injuy that hes getting majior side effects from the pain killer injections but has had to play jayden n sezer will go they already shopped to uk but in saying that sezer is another they let play to much injured he wint go because joeys coming thats half reason he wants to stay but they need get better support for guy thats busting his ass and could have career ending injury if they dont watch out
