OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[Tucker]

I reckon Burton is spewing at him right now. Imagine having Burton and Kikau outside you and you feed B crap! But how many times did he run to dummy half and just stood back doing nuffink cos it wasn't his job so he effectively took himself outta the next play cos he was not in position? Ron Massey Cup next week.

Burton and Kiks had 6 errors between them and most came from his hospital passes he threw them.

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

If Gould's decision to bring in Galvin turns bad could the cogs be put in motion for him to be punted, please let it be so.

 

[Wezt]

Richo wanted to give the bloke a million…

 

[Tucker]

Are you that naieve?

Of course he was going to play after so much of a song and a dance to get him over.

He was never going to play Cup.

Can’t believe you actually thought that.

They were on top of the ladder and flying.
Anyone that disrupts a team like that fails at a fundamental level to understand the dynamics of team sport.

Worked on it for weeks as well he said lol….

I don't think he even knows what a team sport is yet

It was a power trip, just to try and prove they can sign whoever they want.
No thought about the repercussions it would bring.

 

[Pablo]

Another mark against Richo is he offered this guy a long term $1M contract.

There is a very real chance he becomes the next Tim Smith.

I don’t think Richo offered him anything quite near that tbh. The offer was apparently never looked at by Moses so Richo went straight to the media to inflate Galvins price and tarnish him for turning it down, bit of damage control

 

[tiger_one]

Ciraldo “Lachlan you didn’t really perform”.

Galvin “That’s bullying. You need to say I think you developed somewhat in that game”

"..........as he commences more dossier notes."

 

[mtd#2]

Taking shots at Richo is weak...

Galvin is a great footy player, he just isn't a starting number 6 or 7 for the Bulldogs this year. I don't know where he fits in next year... Galvin isnt a 7 and neither is Burton... Unless they are signing a genuine 7 like DCE, I am struggling to see how the Galvin project works..

 

[watersider]

Yeah, the big concern is how this club identified Galvin as the long term 5/8 and offered him a huge contract and had Latu as a lock. That's awful. Just looking at the speed and skill and explosiveness of Ezra Mam in comparison and all Galvin has is work rate and an occasional good pass. He is very slow, weak in the tackle, inconsistent and disorganised in his passing and has a poor kicking game. You'd think his ceiling, if he gets a better kicking game and irons out his over playing, is someone like Kieren Foran. But even Foran at his peak wasn't top of the league.

How did our club get it so wrong with Galvin?

I think the plan was the opposite with Latu being preferred and Galvin knew his role here long term wasn't going to be in the halves

Yep Galvin will end up being the lock

He’s a putrid number 6, slow now and the more he grows the slower he will get

 

[Tucker]

If that’s true, Richo is a dumbarse as that makes him as a negotiator and the club as a destination both look poor.
It also made Gould look good as he got him under that number.

 

[Wezt]

Tigers and Parra dodged a huge bullet

They’ve pretty much screwed themselves out of a halfback by sending Sexton on his bike. They’ve put all their eggs in the Galvin in the halves basket that when it fails, it’s going to set them back.

Hype.
They all drank the coolaid and ignored his weaknesses whilst making excuses for his lack of polish and execution.

Same thing we’ve done with Api.
Gould and Richo are from a different era….

Foran in his early years at Manly was one of the best, and very tough as well. Injuries stopped him

Irrespectively, Richo may look like a genius now. You’ve just got rid of a knob of a player who whilst talented is not a good team player.

Did it ever occur to you, that maybe Richo set this whole thing up?
