OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[Tiger Stripes]

Can’t see him extending his contract anytime soon, even if he will be forced to see out his current deal on average coin. Moses is like a dog with a bone, he will keep banging on the door for the release and the publicity it generates has a extremely negative affect on the club.

Also it would probably suit a team to get him in a few years down the track when he is a hardened NRL player.

If and when they reject our offer I would get Latu into no6 and use Galvin as a 14

I'm optimistic that this will be a distant memory this time next year. He's 18 and wants to win. Next year he gets an origin level halves partner. If we can sort out our three-quarters it would certainly help...

I think the forwards need sorting out just as much as the centres n wingers.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Oh and by the way we don’t have $8,000,000 in are cap at best we got $1,500,000 , and our need for forwards is way above backs , and by the way we got two panther backs coming how many more do u want

2 centres and winger more please?

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Is similar to the big 4.

Instead of wanting to work and build success, I want to leave and go where I can

"Leverage off the success of others" I like it!
That's would be perfect for Stef.

 

[twentyforty]

That's the point. Imagine being at the Tigers and being worried you can't cement a first-grade spot, what does that say about you.

Also I'm sorry for Galvin but I just can't see him remaining as a half into his mid 20s, I expect he'll just get too big and not be quick enough even if he doesn't put on much bulk. I don't think you can expect halfback options and halfback income for too long.

Someone on Fox, think it may have been Read, mentioned the coaching staff had spoken to him about moving to the back row. maybe that’s creating the urgency to lock down a half kind of contract?

 

[lathami]

No way in the world should anyone Boo our best prospect in a decade.

Upgrade and extend him.

Yeah nah, boooooooooooo him he deserves every bit of it, spoilt brat!!
I’ll show him stepping stones

Andrew Abdo has warned NRL clubs and agents anti tampering laws will be invoked if he finds approaches to Galvin have or are being made. Just on Ch9.

All the hooha over this and not one direct quote from Galvin

 

[Tiger Stripes]

he won't upgrade, his family don't want him to be a part of the club

he won't upgrade, his family don't want him to be a part of the club

Thanks for the usual negatives.
That being the case, no more NRL games please.
This season is over for Tigers and gives you 2 seasons to reflect on the advice you got over the decision to seek greener pastures.
Our no early release wont break the Tigers bank.
Or on a positive note, traded for a quality someone we need elsewhere in the team would suffice.

Nothing will be proven. A lot of huffing and puffing. What a load of BS.

 

[Tom Shines]

Maybe the club regressed Cleary too? I wouldn’t be surprised.

The club…meaning Pascoe and the Board ? ( don’t recall if Lee crossed over with Cleary )… it’s possible …

Cleary was given a lot of leeway at WT to sign dud and injured players though … which he delivered on

I agree but it is good the NRL recognise there is an issue.

Don't need one, he wants a release even though we are giving him valuable first grade experience. That'll do me!

Nah - it was Riccio who said that Benji originally saw him as an edge back-rower so when we bought the Fainu brothers is when they first sought a release in November - because Latu as a half and Samuela as a back-rower could BOTH block his path to NRL...

It was just double-dipping on why he was right to feel aggrieved - but as he has since progressed unobstructed to the NRL as first choice 6 - that is now a moot point (as Braith and Tallis stressed).

No suggestion he is being looked at as a back-rower moving forward.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Moses is following a script. If he gets what he wants, it will be repeated over and over again. Two and a bit years of minimum wages is not a lot for WTs. Besides, the 18 year old may change his mind when Luai, Turuva and hopefuly a few others arrive.

I get the impression his mind is overruled? Or he is in sync with those around him?
2 seasons to have a good think about it, from the outside looking on.
NG to far for mum and dad to visit.

 

[Tom Shines]

Anyone hear the rumours before about a player manager (unnamed) who had been caught making fake accounts on X agitating for the release of onE of their clients (also unnamed)?
Not hard to connect the dots.

Twitter rumours mate …. Not worth anything … more likely just some couch potato troll ..

 

[TonyTiger]

No he’s not.

He’s making donuts at Leichardt oval this week - I’m not an accountant but they are all donut with a teeny weeny little hole in the middle, which is not cost effective at all.

 

[Tom Shines]

Funny how things turn out. As far as junior talent around Lachlan's age goes, he was probably well down the pecking order. Guys like Latu, Strange, Miller, TDS and Kit Laulilii all seemed to have more noise about them.

I'm sure Miller, Kit, TDS and even Alex Isdale and Mason seemed to have the greatest influence on that Harold Matthews team. Galvin parked himself on the left and played his role but wasn't the standout. Correct me if mim wrong

I have no idea about how any of these guys played in the juniors …

There were a lot of reports during this last offseason training that Galvin was the fittest guy at the club …. Maybe he just worked his ass off to get better over the offseason and overtook a lot of those guys you mentioned …

 

[Tiger Stripes]

I'd love to know more about his injury. Surely we didn't make him or even let him play with a wrist fracture?

Hand fracture!
Probably a small isolated bone cracked?

 

[Bellend]

Well it will be interesting to see how this plays out after their meeting and they still want out do a deal with the Panthers and say we have either Sam Lane or Angelis Hotere-PAPALII and Preston Ricki in exchange for the disgruntled player and his parents.

Originally i was told it was agent driven his dad is not help his cause either.

 

[Magpies1969]

WT need to stand their ground and say your staying until end of agreed contract.

WT Management need to grow some balls and stop being a doormat to other clubs and player managers.
