OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[BlackWhiteGold]

Can you please expound in a few sentences? Hodgo. What was the gist of it?

Well worth a listen.

One thing he mentioned is Tumeth is dealing with an illness that Richo did not want to elaborate on, hence not appearing in team lists this week.

 

[innsaneink]

Where is the stack of blues from??

You;ll have to ask Weidler

 

[crazycat]

Politicians are more honest than everyone involved in rugby league contract negotiations.

No not really. Ok some I would say 'yes'...

I actually think our League guys are far better behaved then many politicians. They have a stack of tail chase them and they have to turn it down as much is there to trap them.
A damn lot of men in politics still play grab-ass in ways league guys can't do.

 

[Kaito 2]

Was clear from the poddy that Lachie wasn't going to ever re-sign, whether the offer was made today or in November, says a lot...

 

[Squater]

I am still hoping that he realises that his manager is using him as a cash cow

He can always walk in one day and say he made a mistake and wants to stay but for that to happen he must grow a set

Hoping for the same. Hoping we can rally around the kid and show him this is his club and that his agent and old man have given him a bum steer.

 

[Squater]

V’landys is too pre-occupied hobnobbing and looking for the nearest tv camera.

There unwillingness to fix this is almost criminal

 

[tigerballs]

Richo on the bye round podcast is awesome boys

Man's a genius. We're so lucky to have him.

 

[Squater]

Sunday is just going to be awkward.

Dropped.
Sends a legal letter.
Back in the team.

I cannot imagine how the team are going to be accepting of such snakey behaviour.

Galvin is on the nose and it's quite clear he doesn't really and probably never wanted to be here.

I think richo wants to put moses on the spot and he's a week closer to latu coming back. I know it's hard on the team but grown men should man up. It's a sport give it all you got to win.

 

[TYGA]

Richo knew the outcome and blew this up as early as possible. The manager lost it and then aired dirty laundry to get his client out asap. Smart play by Richo as he would have signed elsewhere and exited November 1st and aired the same dirty laundry.

Richo has made a judgement call and made it public via statement knowing the meeting would have been leaked by the player manager in either case.

Just a guess the kid will play a few weeks until Fainu returns and a player swap will happen. If it doesn’t he will be here for the term of his contract. There is no benefit releasing the kid.

These managers know a struggling club with our history and a rookie coach are easy targets. Probably didn’t see the grizzled veteran Richo waiting in the trees with the baseball bat.

As a member and a fan it’s a bad situation handled well. The player in this case has been disgraced publicly which is unfortunate as a young kid.

Brooks (Mel not Luke) has released footage of Moses delivering "These 15 griev ..... - These 10 grievences" to Richo.



The missing grievances are:
11. Thou shalt refer to Benny Elias as a WT legend
12. Thou shalt pay me 6% of your income
13. Thou shalt play for Parramatta
14. Thou shalt worship no other player manager
15. Thou shalt treat WT's management with contempt

 

[TIGERS]

You;ll have to ask Weidler

Ahh its a Weidler column your referring to got it

 

[jirskyr]

I’d give anything to be able to follow a team, just for once, that is just left alone by the media so they can concentrate on their preparations for each game without headlines and drama. Teams like Cronulla, Canberra, North Qld, Warriors, Newcastle, Parra, Dolphins, Storm and Titans in particular are allowed to just go about their business each week without any distractions or disruptions to their prep or their mental state because of media highlighted crap going on behind the scenes all the time. If they have any press attention at all, it’s usually positive.

The media might think it’s lucrative because articles about us generate clicks or whatever, though I still for the life of me can’t see why! As a perennial losers I don’t see why we are so interesting, tbh. Maybe it’s because people enjoy watching a train wreck, I don’t know. In any case, you say there is no smear campaign and it’s just all about money, yet continual scrutiny of our club derails our season every bloody year! In my opinion, that is a smear campaign with the money attached as a bonus.

Newcastle don't get a break in their local papers.

 

[TIGERS]

Man's a genius. We're so lucky to have him.

He's so good. He's pretty clever going on with James Graham. Jimmy a bit of a useful idiot in the way he frames his questions on this top. He's not a Journo and it certainly shows.

 

[liltiger]

You, I and everyone else on here do not know the truth.
You are assuming he said it, I’m believing Richo who said he didn’t and never has.
it’s not really worth debating anymore.
He is here for another year and a half and that’s a good thing as he is in the top group of our best footballers. Benji and his staff need to make it work and prove him wrong in the process.

On one hand your spot on they have to make it work somehow in the situation. If he or his manager were bad mouthing the coaching and whatever else they were doing, it will make it extremely difficult for the group to stick togeather.

 

[liltiger]

V’landys is too pre-occupied hobnobbing and looking for the nearest tv camera.

Apparently his latest and greatest idea might be an N.R.L team based on Hawaii

 

[BAGNF05]

Was clear from the poddy that Lachie wasn't going to ever re-sign, whether the offer was made today or in November, says a lot...

All it says in my view is that Moses successfully sold them his grand plan. No doubt he could sell ice to eskimos. This is the guy who managed Cam Smith and had Nick Politis go into bat for him. He dismantled the Tigers big 4 and brought glory and the Kangaroos captaincy to James Tedesco. Parramatta were a regular top four side all because he delivered Moses to them.

This is what HE does for young “superstars” and the Galvins have bought it hook line and sinker. HE’s proudly owned the peasant club, the Wests Tigers, for years.

What he didn’t tell them is the Tigers are a club on the rise, with strong leadership now, and his mates in the game will turn on him in an instant the minute someone better comes along.

As Joey put it, Lachy could have been the kid who brought success back to Wests Tigers. He’ll probably end up a frustrated second fiddle to ageing sook who never wins a comp under Ryles.

 

[Kaito 2]

Spot on bag @BAGNF05 well said

 

[Ecto-1]

Was clear from the poddy that Lachie wasn't going to ever re-sign, whether the offer was made today or in November, says a lot...

I’ve thought that ever since I heard they wouldn’t even hear the offer.

 

[upthetigers]

Did your father assist you in any career decisions?

No, I did what I wanted.

 

[BAGNF05]

I’ve thought that ever since I heard they wouldn’t even hear the offer.

And then the parents wouldn’t take Richo’s calls. Imagine if Lachy didn’t know about that side of it.
