Lachlan Galvin #277 *Megathread*

Richo deemed the Galvin opportunity to be dead and closed it out. I agree this was the correct decision that saved the tigers a world of pain in the long term, more so, later in this season.
No he didnt, thats the problem.
By his own words, he spent weeks on the offer.
He wasnt closing anything out, he was doing his job to retain his talent.
 
Reed Mahoney given permission to talk to clubs immediately this Galvin signing looks to have really caused them to change the whole dynamic of their spine, I reckon Haywood goes to 9 and Galvin to 14 until they feel its appropriate for him to start in the halves
Looks like Mahoney will be the one to make way. Hilarious. I hate that jerk,
 
I'd say Ciraldo would like his team together this week while all this is going on.
Makes you wonder if he had any say in this or if this was all Gus driven.

The timeline is important.

What happened when Galvin said he will not be signing...

Then he deemed it to be dead.

He qualified it out at the right time. He gave the best and final offer and it wasn't good enough.

What more do you want from him? Get on his knees and beg a 19 year old and his scum of a manager to reconsider?

Please enlighten me what should have happendd next.
 
None of us know the whole truth, and perhaps Moses discussed ideas & options with Galvin & his parents. But at the end of the day, Galvin employs Moses, not the other way around. The name Lachlan Galvin is signed on the contract.
Ryles a few weeks ago was glowing when talking about Galvin I think Moses was telling a few porkies to Parramatta

Yeh, OK, but if he can do it automatically with this word, he can do it to any word or phrase if he feels like it, just because he's the boss as I said to Spartan in an earlier DELETED post.
If the Mod's don't think this is right, I'd like a guarantee from them that it will never happen again [apart from any reference to T-rump which he is obviously going to keep doing].
You're going to ask a leftist to guarantee he won't censor or alter speech against the writers wishes? Think about that for a second 😂

I wouldn't worry about it mate.

The forum is privately owned and free to use, so I'm not sure anyone is entitled to guarantees on anything, but no one has been banned for having the opposite view...I don't think it gets to the point of altering other things either.

He's clearly very passionate/sensitive about the topic where a grown man has felt he had to do what he did.

This is obviously a big moment for him so we should let him bask in whatever glory he feels has been graced upon him.

Ive already said.
It didnt need to be broadcast to the world.
Richo had his answer, he also had a committment for 18 months.
He could have started putting his plan together for replacement signings in the background.
Had it remained behind closed doors, the shit about the contract value and the dossier would not be known and therefore the player division would be less likely to occur, the avenues of mental health and targetted bullying are closed for exit strategies and the season isnt torpeadoed.
Yes Moses would likely play the card of leaking the info himself, but then any claims of he made to agitate for release make him look bad in isolation. The club would not lose face and would actually maintane the sympathy it received at the start of all this.
Why is this important? Future recruitment.
This was all so unnecessary.

I did hear Ryles talk up Dylan Brown on Sat for his "team first" attitude - something the Tigers players have been saying since Lachlan made his intentions known. Id say Moses had informed them by that stage that the sure thing was no longer
 
I said in a response to a fawning post from @tig_prmz about his belief in Gus's Gospel - that Gould always speaks with a forked tongue and is a pathological liar who leaves massive human collateral in his wake at EVERY club he has been a part of!

I will take it one step further - Gus is scared of actual success that he can't claim total ownership of!

He hasn't come close to being involved in an NRL Premiership winning team since sitting above Ricky at the Roosters in 2002 (then losing to Penrith & Bulldogs in 2003 & 2004)!

Gould brought in significant external funding to Penrith via James Packer & both Federal/NSW political pork-barreling through his connections - but they only started winning Premierships when he was shown the door!

His scatter gun recruitment approach to stockpiling then prematurely offloading young talent without investing in development has been his trademark!

(Just ask BMM - Sitaleki Akouala - Te Maire Martin etc who he recruited from the Tigers with big promises...) or Ivan & Griffin who were just chess pieces on Gus' checker-board!

And his "marquee" veteran signings like Civoniceva - Maloney - Merrin - Kite - Soward etc...

This Galvin subterfuge has completely derailed a Bulldogs team that was humming along & winning through self-belief and collective defensive effort - and was potentially set for a Cinderella run like the Tigers in 2005 or Penrith 2003!

Again - Gus has created his own excuse to set the club back to supposedly bring in the X-factor they need to win the trophy...

He's a self-serving douchebag!
 
Man , this kid has some toxicity attached to him . 360 was 💯 all about the eels and dogs , and we didn’t even get a mention .
Apparently half the dogs spine has been told thanks but no thanks . Connective wise , that’s a top of the table spine . Especially Mahoney . He’s a grub , but that team hums through him . I can’t believe they’re pushing Mahoney out for Galvin .
Apparently he’s litterally going to walk straight into the dogs number 7….. man I can’t wait to play that team . Just run Samuela at him all game . He’s a marshmallow in defence .
I honestly no sour grapes at all think it’s legitimately 50/50 whether he will make it as a half . I can’t believe they’re doing this .
Straight up I thought Papenhuyzen when he played u20s for us was 20 times the player Galvin was and is . Fainu has shown just as much in the limited minutes he’s been on the field for us .
Like wtf is going on ? How can this kid with slightly above average talent have such a spell on the nrl that he’s derailed now 3 teams .
I feel like it’s when Claudia Schiffer and Naomi Campbell got famous, and dudes were losing their shit . They’re not that hot! Galvin is not that hot ! Haha he honestly isn’t …
