OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

Sully said:
The NRL needs to introduce a $250K incentive to clubs salary caps that have developed each local junior and a transfer of $100k to clubs signing them from clubs that have invested resources in their development through SG, Matts and Ball to KOE and FG . Could be a sliding scale for years or grades ($50K per grade gets the $250K)

That can see Penrith and the Tigers rewarded for the development and may allow us to offer more to keep them without it being on the cap or benefit financially for the development with money added to our spending.

Agree. It's honestly worthless developing juniors
in this day and age, the odds are stacked against
these guys, and when they show good form they
get poached. Junior/Dev contracts fall under the
same umbrella as veteran allowance unfortunately
(300k all up). This has to change, especially when
you consider there is no draft system in the NRL

The system needs to change …definitely…

I don’t believe it will though… because this will rely on the players having less freedoms than they do now … and I don’t see them agreeing to that even though it might ultimately be better for the game

Why are all those blokes hanging back like that?
It’s not laziness. It looks more like confusion and surprise to me. Look at Sezer racing his arse off to provide a runner or chaser on the inside….

If after more than 20 rounds it's still a suprise to the outside backs that Galvin is going to take the line on and create space, then they aren't using their brains or they aren't at NRL standard.

The job of outside backs is to be there when the halves create space and overlaps.

Could you imagine blaming the likes of Cleary, Johns and Langer for creating space for the outside backs? Time to swallow your Galvin pill mate and start seeing him for the talent he is.

So back to his football for a second. One concern for me is that we moved him to the right on the weekend in prep for next year and yet he seemed to drift back to left but more then that his outside men in Faatape and Staines didn't get any ball - so my question is can he adapt to that side and can he pass to his right

I’d bet he’ll adapt.
I also noticed that he went himself in stead of onto seyfarth on his outside when it looked to be the better option
But even your top line players don’t always choose the right option

well then you don’t match the other offer and the other club ends up the one paying massive overs..they will soon learn to stop doing that

Something needs to change, but clubs will flaunt that too. The NRL need to be stronger in this area, I believe full transparency could help.

Yeh right, that’s my biggest fear..getting brainwashed by the media mastheads 😂
To be perfectly honest Buttsy, why should I take any notice of their shit when I can with minimal effort make up my own shit?

Wasn’t directed at you at all 2040, but I think you got that. There’s plenty of sheep out there that will, even the player and their entourage and then whisper sweet somethings, and all of a sudden speculation becomes true. As I said before it should be easier to keep juniors than to poach them.
Also there should be penalties for mastheads (I love that term) who just make shite up.

Absolutely!!!
That doesn’t just happen as a matter of course though. The club needs to be united in its efforts and be prepared to invest in developing a structured environment which encourages commitment to a singular trustworthy entity, where players play for the jersey.

If his runners are not going with him, then the problem is coming from his playmaking ability. The outside backs either don’t trust or understand what he is going to do. He needs better communication.

Your logic is flawed; either that or you're trolling me.

What happens when someone makes a break and there is no support players? Do you blame the person that made the break for not communicating enough? No, players should always be ready and alert.

The more I get you to unpack your logic, the more I realise you have NFI, no offence.

It's more a case that Lachlan is streets ahead of the rest of our duds just like Benji was back in the day

And whether he was making a break or not you would expect your teammates to be supporting you
