OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

I said this would happen , stepho will go , Galvin will follow , the two Penrith players will say they have mental issues and can’t come , I just can’t see how the club is going to get out of this , we buy backs , put gave no forwards , we buy forwards but have no backs it’s just a crap circle

Richo will draw a line in the sand here. South’s never released any player they wanted to keep. If they leave it’s at the end of contract. It won’t happen. Our only hope is the young kids coming through you let Galvin leave it’s open slather.

Agree. Moses probably thought we’d roll over like we always have. Not with Richo at the helm. Seems a very astute guy when it comes to running a club.

Broken hand is a bit excessive. If it's a wrist sprain or something, maybe it's OK to tough it out but if there's an actual unhealed fracture, it would be quite negligent to let him continue playing for inconsequential games. If it's a small fracture, they take 3-4 weeks to heal anyway.

Probably get rested when Sezer comes back

Hunt was crapping on about wanting a release at Dragons and they made him stay. Galvin is signed to 2026. He won't be going anywhere

 

[Sco77y]

Only saving grace here is, and we're yet to see him enough in first grade to prove he's equally as good (or better) - having Latu. If he stays...

True, losing Galvin wouldn’t be a complete disaster. Not ideal, but not the end of the world either

 

[TigerNeddyK]

If the Ute wants out, he can walk. He needs to get over his own hype because he's not as amazing as the media is portraying him. Galvin on the other hand should NOT be released full stop.

UTE should be paying us for the dribble he has dished out in the losing run .. he is a large part of the problem, what has he done to dominate the middle and get us field position.. hearing that he wants to leave after the words he has spoke ln about loving the club and being grateful that we have him a start and he wants to be here for the rebuild and the future really really pisses me off zzz like has the big unit got no heat at all ? He shirks it against every pack that goes at him . Fully tucks tail and runs ..

Cool story bro !! 😎

It’s a new era of professionalism at the club. This will be a good test

 

[GNR4LIFE]

This is why we need a coach

 

[GCfan]

Ive seen this one before.

Plenty of gaslighting by some on here when people were discussing how this would likely happen earlier in the year. Like players would just happily stay and waste away their careers.

Benji needs to get a hold of things fast. As if the likes of Miller and Faagatu are going to want to hang around either.

So are we suggesting that only the good players should play at the good teams?

They won’t be happy to waste their careers at the lower ranked clubs so should move to greener pastures.

Interesting to see how that works with a salary cap

You mean there’s a salary cap 😮

 

[Tiger-ferret]

These players that want out are a part of the problem in a losing team , it’s time they man up and help their mates dig themselves out of the hole instead of carrying on like sooks and thinking they can go elsewhere

Its a sign of the times. What can the organization do for you, not what you can do for the organization.

It’s not the first time Richo has addressed his parents as well. I know in the recent past, when a young player was tossing up between tigers and dogs, his father was like, go to the dogs. They’ll look after you better. And this bloke is a mad tiger fan.

Disheartening for us fans 😢

 

[tigermate]

We need to bring in Brad Arthur as an assistant and sack Farrah

Show the market that we have adult supervision in the coaching ranks and not two rookies

Also players love Brad Arthur

It will at least shore up some things and bring some Steele and work ethic to the coaching staff

And then we can look for a new coach before end of the year and see what falls out of the tree

Im talking about juniors or rookies here. Cap barely plays into it at those levels.

The salary cap works against the weaker clubs. If you get paid almost the same regardless of your side, why wouldn’t you play for a better club? It’s more fun and less taxing on your body for a start.

 

[supercoach]

Galvin probably has never played in a side in his life that has lost three on a trot, now he is on a streak of nine on the trot and will probably end up over 20 loses

He can take the soft road and kick and scream and get a gig at the Chooks or who ever or he can put his hand up and take some responsibility like the rest of the squad and try and turn things around . If we really want things to change we have to have everyone on board, so if Galvin wants out let him walk, but get something out of the deal, a player who wants a challenge

Yeah but Galvin is the subject currently is he not? He’s playing NRL and has a top 30 contract

I agree. That’s why it’s so hard to dig yourself out of the hole as you’re typically having to pay overs to attract and or keep players at the club. But I also can’t see every decent player heading to a Penrith or Roosters etc as the cap still distributes talent (albeit not as well as it’s designed for the reasons you mention).

Every year I bring this up. The salary cap punish the bottom teams, because they have to spend probably 40% more to attract players. So they get a lot less for their cap. This is not only your elite players, but it’s also your juniors and your depth players.

Whats the answer??? I have a solution but it has been screamed down every year for the past decade so I want bore everyone

 

[happy_tiger]

Maybe Galvin / Moses are looking for a contract upgrade asap ......could be as simple as this
