Tallyn Da Silva

Maybe, maybe, maybe ..... who the fxck knows why he signed with the Eels? I would guess it is just simply more $$$$. We / you know nothing about the negotiations with this kid. You're just using this to promote your anti Seibold / Mestrov position. I don't know if they fxcked it up but maybe our management was thinking about our cap and needs money for other signings? The only certainty here is that we're all sausage roll eating numpties and apart from probably one person on here (I acknowledge @AndWeDon'tCare ) none of us have a clue and will never know what actually transpired.
Your last sentence nails it.

Only our CEO, coach , the Eels CEO & Coach or the kids manager ( and those working in that business ) would know what exactly transpired.

Anything else , absolute conjecture.

Personally, I would have liked Da Silva to sign at Manly because I think he is going to be better than Simpkin and obviously Croker, but…I reckon 4 years at 650K is pretty mental. That’s a lot of coin for potential.

That is only 100k per year less than Galvin.

How many players has Tigers lost recently? Including all the schiit ones we bought 😄

Big money and long contract for potential.

I think we all would have liked him to join , but under those conditions I’d applaud our management.

I’d rather save our money for a genuine game winning prop & another good edge forward.

Simpkin is going okay , he’s looking better all the time .

Croker is done.
 
Time will tell
What we know 100% is
There is a shortage of Quality halves and hookers
and the shortage is going to shorten with 2 new team coming into the comp soon
Would not be surprised in the slightest if you pick up Reed Mahoney, I rate him a quality hooker

100%, we got burned with the Schuster signing, we need to learn lessons from this. The Da Silva signing could be quite easily be Parra's Schuster signing.
 
I gave you my opinion . Read the last post and you have your answer
Are you happy with the 32 year old Fogarty 3 year deal ?
Happy with Fogarty? Yes 100%. And you may have forgotten we have a young, (potential) boom half in Walsh waiting in the wings. We even have a young (potential) boom 5/8 in Large coming through.

He showed glimpses on Friday but was well outplayed by us ( which isn’t exactly world class ).

I hope the kid goes well , and cannot blame him for the money & length of contract to go where he went.

Hey Eagle1 we did it, 3 good luck charm might go up again and get us another much needed win B4 the bye. Great night driving back with my voice still intact smiling all the way home safe and sound, thanks for the comment my friend Cheers...

The long ride back is always more enjoyable after a good win that's for sure. Good chance of getting the Bunnies as well, no Latrell or Cody Walker...get this and its a block of 8pts with the 2 byes 😊
 
I do enjoy people getting passionate about something that we have no idea about what really happened
Sorry Isz if you're talking bout my conversation with Eagle1, it's regarding my adventure getting to the Tigers game. I know different conversation / post but just saw Eagle1 on here and wanted to say cheers mate..
