Lachlan Galvin #277 *Megathread*

How did he derail us?

How didn’t he you mean.

He’s been pumped up as the main guy ever since he debuted with us. For whatever reason, after coming off a win in Newy ans the lead up to one of our biggest fixtures of the year vs Parra he makes his feelings known that he doesn’t see himself progressing at this club.

It’s just crazy to me that a 19 year old kid can’t shut up and enjoy what 99% of kids would dream to do . The Penrith boys we recruited who are big on brotherhood, called him out on his bullshit rightly so.

This is my point and is why I can understand the kid wanting out.
Calling his father obsessive, calling him an entitled brat, calling his manager scum...its all just hot air from overly emotional fans who've never met any of them.
The guy wasnt happy in our system. Ill wager he is not on his Pat Malone.

Well it certainly isn’t Luai, Api, Turuva and May who have won comps. I’ll trust their instincts 👍

He rejected a contract offer, hardly the crime of the centrury and something that happens regularly every year in the other 16 clubs. We just dont hear about most of it.

When you state he cant shut up, what are you referring to?

They should be more worried about their own games then ganging up and throwing shade on an inexperienced kid.

Has May won a comp? Anyway that doesnt matter, the others have their money, which they incidently earned by leaving the club that they saw success through, to chase the dollar with us. Being hypocritical doesnt prove any point.
By the way, Im referring to the likes of TDS, the Fainus and Bula etc....

I’m stating he should have refused to answer any questions related to his contract situation. His inexperience in the media has cost him a fair bit, not his fault as he is only young but I think whoever was advising him should have drawn a line in the sand with him. Media ban, let the season play out, then let the negotiations start when obliged to

How Andrew Johns convinced Lachlan Galvin to commit to Tigers

A week after requesting a release, the rising star has told Tigers officials he wants to play a key role in turning the side around. Comments from league’s eighth Immortal proved to be a catalyst.

My bad, he hasn’t. But the others have.

The point is, I want my leaders to stick up for the club I support.

The others haven’t committed but that remains to be seen. Pole has committed and he had plenty of other offers from clubs

re read my post, I put an edit in

Yes, well that was about a different topic. He was reassuring fans he will fullfil his current contract.
I have said all along that this is his stance.
The club is making the decision to let him go based upon allegations his side have made triggered by the way the club has handled his contract rejection.

I want the leaders to play good football and STFU. Theyve had plenty to say...far more than the kid has.
 
Apparently he’s off to the dogs . Handshake agreement in place . Don’t know if it’s click bait , but it’s everywhere now .
Turns out what everyone thought happened when he announced it was what actually happened .
Sometimes the simplest answer is the correct one

And … how’s that going?

Mate when you’ve got a bloke like Isaac Moses ruling the roost who’se been banned twice by the NRL and clubs who flat out refuse to deal with him, it’s not impossible to believe he’s been poorly advised and left Galvin in a shit heap.

The club are releasing him.
His team sent them a letter basically advising dont let the workplace become toxic.
From the outside looking in, they have failed to do that.

U got to be kidding , the little brat got a start last year from a coach who had faith in him , but his manager who hates our club and benji , Iam sure he planned this hold thing , along with his father who wants his kid winning every week so he can feel good .
He was in the eels system and they pissed him off the tigers gave him a chance and brought him throw to 1st grade and he turns around and shi*** on the club , our u a supporter ur are u leaving when the little shit leaves

Well for the most part they have barring Luai. But if your halves partner has one foot out the door, it makes life difficult

Not if you are professional. If there has been any inkling at training that things arent working than the coach should have acted before we copped a 64 point drubbing and a 4 try to 2 loss to a team that is significantly weakened. If the player group is split, then management should have acted.
Moving this kid on is putting a bandaid on a broken leg. Considering his ability, the team is being weakened due to this lack of action.
