And the referees are allowing it and turning a blind eye to illegalities.

What’s the motive for that ? Are they trying to rub out some kid ?

The illegal stuff on him is unbelievable. The game is such a disgrace in so many ways, it really is.
We really need to get some healthy players so he can spend some time in cup

He has been targeted by the opposition… I’ll say mostly legitimate …maybe we need some better players out wide to take some pressure off ..: that hype he got from that try in the preseason has backfired

He’ll be fine. Tedesco copped worse when he came into grade.

Needs to harden up physically.
Big unit who needs to grow into his body
Desperate for an off season
Will be a weapon when he does

I don't think there is a motive. I think they are just giving him a welcome to first grade. However, he was sent for a HIA. We all saw it was a shoulder charge, and I guess it got him in the head, but nobody saw it but the Docter. Just like the early line speed from the Dogs. Did we even get one six again.

I don’t think there is any conspiracy by the officials against him ..so I don’t agree it’s a “disgrace “..
… he has been targeted all year by every team he comes up against ,,, probably because he is susceptible to intimidation being an 18;yr old kid …. And we don’t have a lot more playes out wide that the opposition needs to be worried about so they can concentrate on him …

He is targeted because he is good. Opposition players are attracted to him like a fly to a light - brown light ...... runs like a forward - plays like a back.

I agree, unfortunately we do not have an enforcer type forward other than Samuela, Sione can put a hit on however playing longer minutes might mean he needs to save his energy. Someone really needed to rock Toupinua, he was bullying our backs.

I'd be satisfied if it was just a bit of push and shove, its like he's on his own out there

We can't continue to play him anymore.
He's got a heap of talent but he's here for a while and I feel like we are just killing his confidence playing him.
Id have Laulii, Skelton, toa and Herbert once he's back before him. Id even put Mason at centre.
Once we are not even a mathematical chance of making the 8 then we can look to get him in for experience.
Some players like Galvin flourish when thrown in the deep end, I don't think he's the type of player that does.

Agree get him back in cup for the remainder of the year to build a combination with Latu, Javon, Attard & Haywood. If he starts carving up then absolutely give him another chance in firsts. At this point I’d play Skelton on the wing or Saukuru at centre before him.

He may end up starting on the wing with Herbert injured. If not Laulilii should be the bench back over mak so he can actually develop in cup same with Latu

Galvin didn’t flourish, we stunted his growth as well and the Dogs are dealing with that right now.
This kid makes a huge amount of F-ups…errors, poor decisions and missed tackles.
He has to serve an apprenticeship otherwise he will never reach his potential.

Not sure what he did so wrong today . Made a break , had some great carries and caught every bomb that came his way . What did I miss ?

Kid can play. Let's not forget that 8 months ago he was sitting his HSCs and only training a few days a week.
