OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[Tucker]

Of course you saw it that way.

Dude Gould got owned big time.

I don’t like Chammas, but man I respect what he did last night.

He wasnt "owned" at all. He was Irritated, even upset.
He wasnt shamed or fully exposed and thats what you have to do when you go after someone big like him.

Freddie is a great judge.
He is one of the only people about that has experienced what Galvin is going through. Schoolboy prodigy entering first grade young and left the club that groomed him to chase fame and fortune elsewhere.
Won premierships, SOO series, World Cups, Test series, captained everything, won all the awards, is in the hall of fame, coached first grade and NSW and is considered a strong chance of one day being awarded immortal status. He has also remained in and around the sport as a commentator and expert for the better part of 2 decades.

Just keep him away from kiss cam 😂

Another minor battle win but not the war. Who is the last junior we have developed that has gone on to be a champion with the WT? We always lose them to the top clubs where they become champions.

I share your frustration.

 

[batboy]

. By working on the contract proposal for weeks and then being blindsided by the decision, it doesnt appear this happened at all.

You have to appreciate the arrogance...

He requested multiple releases before he debuted, He requested releases after he debouted.
Then he came dead last and the club was shocked he wasn't looking to stay.

I mentioned at the time that Galvins wording after it died down was only that
he was looking to finish his contract at Tigers - Not that he saw a career here.
I'm no genius, But if I saw it and heard it - Surely someone else in management did?

connect the dots.

Smith is a bigger name than Chammas

100%.
It appears they, and many on here did not.

Maybe Richo was overconfident in his ability to negotiate. He seemed like he felt he was a winner with the sell of making Galvin our John Sutton. Daddy Galvin said “thanks, but no thanks”

To be fair - Comparing Galvin and Freddy is Chalk and Cheese, I see it all the time
- It not remotely similar outside the amount of birthdays they've had.

Freddy debuted young - But came into a team of seasoned rep level players ready to challenge for a comp with a General like Brandy running the show.

Galvin came into a team of Wooden Spooners, With 1 decent player and was tasked with dragging it around - Sezer did shit, Galvin was the general last year....
Great development plan!!

 

[Enmore_Tiger]

Close the thread. Let's move on.

Or change the title to Dogs implosion, and we here at least get some joy this season.

So that means anything said by Cam Smith or Danika Mason in relation to Isaac Moses can be disbelieved because they are managed by him. That doesn’t bode well for truth in reporting.

Im not comparing them, Im saying he has experienced similar things. He understands the situation better than most as he lived it, albeit differently and better

I was dissappointed with Smith. he has as much knowledge of the game as Gould and he could have added some weight to the Chammas side. The problem was though, Chammas was stating widely held opinions and was talking about Gould and the Dogs like Phil wasnt there and was easily interrupted and stalled by Gould stating 'thats not true'. He needed the receipts to say you said this on this date, you did that on this date etc...
An evidence based argument would have made Gould look a right liar last night. He certainly got under his skin, but didnt deliver a knock out blow for mine.

100% with the evidence. I didn’t expect channel 9 to tee up any supporting footage they had, but Chammas should’ve had that stuff written down - direct quotes, a timeline. As you say, that would really have finished Gould off.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I’m sure Chammas and Gus shook hands and had a chuckle once the cameras went off. Anyone who thinks these shows aren’t heavily produced are kidding themselves. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Gus and Gallen are always at each others throats. Not a ratings ploy at all 🙄

 

[Ron Brodrick's Spirit]

The label on one of the shorts on the Telegraph's web page is "TV commentator Phil Gould upset he has to answer questions on TV".

Someone there has a good sense of humour.

 

[batboy]

Of course it is, because as far back as HM, WTs resisted the efforts of clubs including Canterbury to get under our guard. The club can only do so much.

What a lot of Hot C*ck
- Galvins old man convinced Gallant to get him back from Parra because he wasn't getting a run.
Even to the point of offering to pay the Transfer fee if the club couldn't be convinced.
Where's the Wests Tigers glory in that exactly?
- Losing him to begin with then being begged to buy him back by his parents?
You're on Drugs!

What the club should get credit for is 'stupidly' signing them up to top end contracts long term before they'd even done anything...
But how many of those contracts have held up?
Miller - No, Galvin - No, Tallyn - Well, Maybe...
I could care less to find the others...

Keep polishing your Richo and Benji Statues pws
- Wasn't that long ago you were waxing lyrical about Richo was holding Galvin to contract and you had full faith in his word.
Well, Now there's no Galvin 165k nothing but to replace him with, and no one to spend it on.

It's funny how one sided people see what Gus says - Go and listen to it ALL again....
Most peoples problem with Gus is he's the smartest bloke in most rooms he's in.

Apologies, I wasn't meaning you specifically....

More expanding on it and referencing all the talk around Goulds comments about him being the best 18 year old he'd seen....
Everyone throws up Freddy, Daley and whoever else - Cracks me up.

No one they could throw up as a comparison,
had to come into the organisation, coaching and team that Galvin did last year at his age
- and do what he did.

No one!!

I listened to it.
All I heard is him contradicting things he'd already said because he didn't have the mental capacity to remember all his lies.
I also heard him refuse to let Chammas speak, a common tactic to not allow facts to be heard from the other side.
I heard bluster and bravado.
I'm sure HE believes he's the smartest bloke in the room, but we'll never know because he's too scared of his own failings to allow anyone else to speak.

Hear it however you like...

There's a reason he's 'there' and you're 'here'

So because you say he wasn’t owned, he wasn’t?

Typical you thinking you know everything and are the voice of reason.

In the limited time he had for the segment, Chammas smashed him. Just because he never provided dates, Chammas still made references to things Gould has said - and you know it.

I’m not going to get in to one of your words like I watched you the other day with whoever it was. That was pathetic - AND hilarious to watch.

The Forum knows I’m right - ie. Gould was shown up last night.
