OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

It was a terrible decision. To put that much effort into developing him, only to turn around and tell him, they were going to re-sign Api till Api was 35. Such a waste of time,
Clearly there were issues with the players who came through that harrold matts team together. They have all moved on. Maybe it was infectious and once one left, they all wanted out.
All started with Lachie.
 
TDS had a clear path to FG at WTs. He didn't want it.
The club had room for API and him and if he was good enough a very good chance that API may have struggled to own the starting position at some point.
Even at Parramatta he shares it with Ryley Smith coming on as impact.
They didn't choose API over him they just werent prepared to give up API for him and nor should they have had to.

Why keep crying over spilt milk, the fact is TDS wanted too much money and was impatient, would you prefer we let Api go, a player who made the Blues pine this year to please a junior who was not ready to play big minutes.

He will be 24 in 2029, the perfect age to be taking the leading role but he couldn't wait, how many times have there been complaints about players being used too young in our team, if he stayed, I'm sure his minutes would've been increased each season.

Haywood will be 23 in 2029 and we have Brailey to cover until he's ready to make an impact.

Agreed. TDS is a player of great potential. I liked TDS but he did not want to serve his apprenticeship under Koroisau and received a very good offer from the Eels. Koroisau has been very good for WTs and is a leader. He did enough to warrant SOO selection. At that point in time, very few would have picked TDS ahead of Koroisau.

Jacob Miller I thought was the first.
He was also the biggest name out of them. Big boy but also able to play.
We sacked him.
