OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

Juice said:
Also does anyone else find it odd that DCE randomly asked for a release last off season the same time as Galvin? Sounds like a coincidence until you remember this manager is also looking after the coach at manly & would have inside info about what was happening… Just speculation obviously but the NRL has to take some of the power away from agents IMO

Neither Galvin or DCE asked for a release in the off-season...

Ok so at the Roosters, Moses has an argument with Nick... Banned.

At the Tigers, Moses wrecked our club! Why on earth isn't he banned here?

We see how this ended, we see all the drama behind Galvin.

Heck we see a club, with Marshall who is arguably one of the greatest 5/8ths of the game, with GI running around and who has just hired Jerome Luai. Why would a NRL 5/8 turn that experience down

Lets reach out to Bula now, offer 50K per year to switch agents. Ban Moses and get him off our club.
With his family history, you would think he would show some loyality... or at least not twist daggers into us.

Stuff it, get him off our club before we get another big 4!

The best thing WTs can do now is nothing. We pick the best spine this week and next week, even if it includes Galvin (he can play lock, centre, 14 or even reserve grade if required but he will only play in the halves if Luai or Latu are injured) We keep the poker face on and let the dust settle and we keep winning games. I'd be guessing that you won't hear anything else from the club regarding this matter, especially from Benji.

It's not a guess. They said they won't make further comment. I think your right in that they will use him as it suits the club. While transitioning.to latu

I think posters who are saying Galvin isn’t worth the money and he’s overrated are trying to mask there emotions.

There’s nothing wrong with admitting that this kid is a superstar and is going to be sorely missed from a football perspective.

He’s probably the best rookie I’ve seen personally adapt to the NRL as quickly as he has. It’s going to be a massive loss.

I think that’s why I’m so shocked that the reason he wants to leave is because he doesn’t think he’ll be able to develop or progress at the club.

Yet he’s one of the best halves in the game and he seems like he’s developing perfectly under our system.

The kid, his manager and family are all frauds.

Throwing a club legend and your coach under the bus, when he was the one who wanted you to succeed the most and made sure he did everything in his power to make that happen gives you an insight into his character.

Good luck to him at Leichhardt oval next week.

Like a school in a fire drill - no class.

They could have respectfully reviewed the offer and said that it's basic due diligence to go to market as they believe the market is much higher. The Tigers could have replied they cannot wait in terms of cap planning.

None of the disrespect was necessary. Yes frauds, not the people that are best for club culture. They would always be divisive.

This would make me as Latu feel a bit odd, that now im only getting the attention galvin had AFTER galvin knocked back their 6 million dollar contract. would make me feel unappreciated at the very least. I wouldnt be surprised if Latu might chirp up soon. Lets hope not

The story is Richo took to the parents Galvin would be like John Sutton, transition to the forwards and that Latu is seen as the long term 6.

I actually don’t think this is on Moses to be fair. If Galvin said he wanted to stay, then his agent can’t really do anything: Galvin wants to go.

Galvin seems very maluable and selfish to me. Not the most intelligent kid. Issac may have advised to wait and not have intended this, it could have more so been about getting best price in Nov

Pretty good outcome, we can move on and invest in Latu. I was worried that this would play out over the year and Latu would seek other opportunities, Latu into 1st grade, Galvin to Reggies, get it done Benji.

Why even play him in reggies, if Latu is fit then Galvin can be #18 for the rest of his contract and get no game time at all. 🤣

It’s not about the money though. The tigers offered the money, he’s wanting out for other reasons. He’s not getting the attention that he feels he needs. We have to remember that places like Westfields are a rugby league education. It’s a constant education. And he feels he’s not getting it from Benji. Whether he’s right or not I don’t know. My feeling is that he’s just not getting Benjis undivided attention like last year. He also Thu k the da t that he doesn’t drink might be impacting his ability to make connections in the team. Not saying that’s good or bad, but I think you should still make an effort with or without alcohol.

I highly doubt that he’ll get what he got in high school any other club to be fair.
My guess is that his aim is to get to the bulldogs but I don’t think he’ll get there now, at least not straight there. Richo will want something big.

There's still a way to salvage this for the Galvin's. Fire your player manager. Issac has messed up here, even if they have a handshake elsewhere, as he's really damaged the brand and worth of the kid. Very badly executed.

He’s messed up in the handling, but Galvin wants to go for his own reasons. Whether they are right or not is up to him.

He’s going to be a massive loss and would have been worth the money, but other clubs have moved on from big losses and we can do the same.

I still believe his biggest influence are his parents . If his parents were happy at WTs he wouldn't be going anywhere for this contract at the very least. He would still be only mid twenties and 5 mill+ richer for it. This is not your average offer to a 19 year old most parents would be over the moon. His parents are not taking our calls.

I have no doubt that Moses is acting on behalf of the direction of his parents and Lachy is the pawn - who probably has been fed for the last three years that he is too good for this club - and believes they are acting in his best interests.

Great move by Richo, IMO.

Galvin’s image has taken another hit … again, thanks to his manager. No deal with another club can be announced until November, so it can’t look like he’s chasing a better offer any time soon, which only adds to the pressure on his team to manage this PR mess.

I don’t see how he turns around the negative sentiment with the fans, unless he plays his heart out… if he doesn’t like how this feels, he can always sack Moses and sign the deal.
