So important that those players who pushed for Galvin to be dropped now step up and roll the eels on Monday.
Mitchell Moses making his return is a worry, we don't need to be screwed over by another Moses this week.
One Jungle! Team first! Go Tigers!!

Yes, very important to make a statement. I also feel that, maybe for the first time, this is Luai's team.

Just saw Skelton wandering around Burwood Westfields (no limp) was really tempted to ask him how things are going down re Galvin.

Wow, that is a huge get, well done guys! Latu particularly would be interesting to hear from. Not just the Galvin stuff, but how he has managed the spotlight since the manly signing, being the youngest brother in a talented family, what has he learned from his brothers incarceration, how has he felt with the glut of halves in the squad (bud, Galvin, ad, luai, that young kid in lower grades), etc. Would love to get down there one of these days (or wait for the Ambush to travel to Brisbane for magic round 😉 )

this is our biggest game in a number of years today
Pole and May ro kick the door in on the Parramatta forwards
Luai to stand up and have a huge game
we win and win well and then we sit Galvin in Ron Massey cup for 18 months
tigers 32
Parramatta 12
It’s a tough one to pick a score today I think. But as long as our defence holds up I believe we can win 24-12…. 6-6 maybe halftime.
