OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

Lachie was more hype and potential over reality the dogs are starting to realise. I havent seen a half succeed with a poor kickibg and passing game.
 
All fair points but I think it’s also fair to recognise that the there is a vast difference between Galvin at the Tigers & Galvin at the Dogs. Some of the stuff he was doing straight out of high school was pretty incredible & I think we were all rightly excited by him. Even last year he had already racked up 10+ try assists by the time he left us.

Funnily enough I actually think the biggest difference is coaching (ironic isn’t it) Benji allowed him to play with confidence & just play eyes up footy which suits his game to a tee. Ciro & the Bulldogs attack is very structured so trying to play ad lib footy does not work in that system. It’s clear that Galvin does not suit that structure & when he does try to play that eyes up footy no one is there with him because the attack is so structured.

Agree with you. I also think he is playing out of position, he isn’t a halfback currently.
He is predictable and looks to have totally lost that off the cuff style play.
 
He’s one kid I will death ride . As he’s not humble , he’s not a good bloke and his dad is worse . I don’t have any empathy for disloyalty .
I never had an issue with him saying he didn’t rate Benji if that’s what the real issue is .
But I’m just gonna say it , the real reason I heard on the grape vine is there was too many Polynesians at the club , and that’s what his real issue was. The implication was he wasn’t going to get a fair go cause he’s white . Which is ridiculous because the god damn team was built around him .
I’ve said it before it all kicked off when we signed the Fainus . And regardless if Latu kicks on in the halves or becomes a victor Radley type and moves to the middle … as if any one who wasn’t a white pointed hood wearing , Nazi flag waving . space cadet would ever not bring the Fainus in. The way Benji has got buy in from them and the May boys is amazing . They all had knocks on them for being shitheads . Which who knows what’s true . I have my real suspicions as to the motivation of those rumours.
It’s to all these , well bullshit a drama , that IMHO forms a real distaste in my mouth . Luke L . He’s on his way to Perth . I hope he kills it . Can’t keep them all. Even TDS, he got a life changing offer from the eels (which is typical eels backroom dealing) , and I don’t really begrudge him as I think Heyward will wear the blues jersey one day , and TDS is at this very moment a poor man’s Jacob liddle . And I think he was reading tea leaves a bit re. The messaging probably changed from “you’re the greatest , next Robbie “ to “you’ve got X Y Z to work on “, and Heyward is only 2 years younger.
Do I wish he didn’t quit mid season . Of course . But I sort of get the club ultimatum around Api , as the big dollar deal was there for him right now , an in 2-3 years there was a real chance Heyward would have gone past him, thus decreasing his value on the market .
But yea …the new facilities at LO should be named the Morrison Galvin Memorial toilet blocks . Haha
Well put Lestronge. Couldn't agree more.
