Cheers mate.
You've been around too long and going down the rabbit hole...
Slow down 🙂
There's still a slim chance that Galvin doesn't want to leave but wants to test the market and see which coach, team and money he can play for... And if the tigers is the best option he will resign...
The tigers may have just said, "nah it doesn't work for us mate, your in or your out"
I think the club made a call on it and Galvin never said he wouldn't consider a contract after November. That's just me speculating though

the family are so so far up themselves from what I have seen via others from a distance, this is not suprising

Good form from Richo, calling it early.
Lachlan is a talent but there are other players, shouldn’t pin on one. He is still developing and lots of bad plays for many years until he matures for the money.
Latu, faster of the mark, better defender, and straightens up the play deep in the line. Definitely a better long term half. Just needs the time on the field is 1st grade gal in has had.
To be honest it is stupid that this is happening now and not year. NRL should fix.

All he has said is he wants to play football and let his manager deal with the contract.
Well his manager has dealt with it.
I surprisingly am happy that it has been decided and we can move on rather than wait until Nov 1 and be told then.
We can choose to do what is best for the Club now which does not include a 19 year old kid who has potential to be a good football player. His best attribute is his fitness and to be given a chance to showcase that in FG when other clubs would have had him in Ball, Flegg or KOE has inflated his own self worth.
I would prioritise Latu over him once back from injury. Lachlan Galvin with a 6 or 7 jersey in KOE or 18 Jersey in FG where he would get to sit on the bench and see his teammate out there enjoying hopefully another win. I was at Leichhardt last year when we played the Titans and he was rested after complaining of playing through injury after wanted out the week before in the Dragons game and we won without him. He can relive that for two years.
Let the RLPA complain but Tallis sat out for a year so Galvin can train and sit on the bench for this time and see where he develops.
I support how the club has handled this as Galvin has asked for a release numerous times which is similar to Tedesco ( signing with Raiders ) and we saw how that finally panned out and who we lost
(Paps to the storm) holding out to support players that were never going to stay.
Be interested to see what happens on Monday at CommBank along with Team list Tuesday
I share the same feelings here champion @innsaneink - things won't fester.
But at the end of the day, playing with your mates at the top level is a gift rarely won, and this player has turned his back on that.
Reminds me of the time when Terry lamb was re-signed by the then Wests Magpies CEO, Ray Bernasconi, for ONE year and he then moved over to the Bulldogs. We fans "died" but we also "survived."
Pole said when he resigned he owed the club. He wanted to repay them for their faith in him. Good to see this. Fk ya Lachy!!
Can U link to the post?
Oh, I meant do Penrith want to block blaise from 6 by signing Galvin?

Oh yeah. We play hardball when it comes to players honouring their contracts don’t we 😒

Or maybe he’s seen enough, or maybe it’s just the dollars. Limited loyalty these days, plus the Brown contract opened the doors big time. Guess you can’t blame him, interesting to see if he does live up to the wraps.
why don’t you think we should drop him ?
The club’s statement basically says that. His people weren’t interested in negotiating. The tone was “you guys couldn’t write a contract big enough for me to stay.”

Don’t care, imo we should. That’s playing tough, exactly what we need.
Players/ rookies leave clubs all the time when they are seeking what we were offering Galvin. He wants no part in it so it would be stupid and unprofessional on our part to support his career above a player who may have a point to prove who wants to play for the club.
No ill will but no favours either.

I wrote in a post (couple of weeks ago? Dunno - I'm old...I'll see if I can find it) that Gould is the epitome of Machiavellian and very cunning with what he puts out there.
Says dogs are not interested in Galvin, simultaneously calling him the best teenager he's ever seen - despite being at Penrith when Fittler was first there for God's sake.
* Actually, was Gould at the roosters when Fittler moved?
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if this is a classic misdirection and Galvin ends up at the dogs.
And any talk of fitting him into their cap is moot imo; we've all seen in recent years their ability to offload players in bulk to accommodate their shiny new toys.
I’d imagine the Dogs offer was considerably more than what the Magpies could offer in those troubled times. Galvin is pretty much saying your tinpot club isn’t good enough for me.
