In the Brent Read column today under the JAC story ... Galvin breaking his own fitness records!

The Wests Tigers are never far from the headlines and the theme has continued in the pre-season as chief executive Shane Richardson and coach Benji Marshall begin the latest restoration project at the embattled club.

They have laid down an early marker by dishing out official warnings to a handful of players who failed to return for pre-season training in the right condition.

The players can’t say they weren’t warned.

When they sat down for their exit interviews at the end of last season, they were told in no uncertain terms that they were expected to return for pre-season training in the right condition.

Some of them took heed. A handful of young players continued to train throughout the off-season. Lachlan Galvin has apparently broken many of the records he set last year.

Others have followed suit. The vast majority have done what was asked of them. Some have let themselves and the club down and have been sanctioned as a result.

The club, led by Richardson, has talked tough in the off-season and those words would have looked hollow had they allowed a handful of players to let their standards slip.

Truth be told, the Tigers’ standards have been slipping for too long.

They haven’t played finals football for a decade. They have won three consecutive wooden spoons and their fans have begun to lose hope.

Marshall’s first season in charge was another abject disappointment and he will start 2025 under immense pressure to turn things around. His job may be at stake if he can’t.

Richardson has backed him to the hilt.

It’s now up to the players to do their part.

Sign Galvin if he’s spotted near a pen.

Would hate to see them if their girlfriend doesn't respond to their text message in 5 seconds

My favourite is when people tag “insiders” asking if there is any news. Pretty sure posters who claim to have sources don’t sit around just waiting to be asked for info. If they have something to say, they don’t need to be prompted.

Most of them can’t wait to tell everyone what they know.

I am extremely worried about the reasons for his availability but he definitely fills a massive need.
