OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[BAGNF05]

No, someone who's bad game is a 7 is a superstar of the game. Regular first graders still have bad days at the office. Everyone does really

So you only watch Tigers games then. You put in back to back stinkers at a strong club and you’re becoming acquainted with the KOE cup coach.

 

[BAGNF05]

Good question.
I’m not sure I seen enough of Sam’s debut year, but from what I did see, and the team he had around him, I reckon I’m happy with Gal. Didn’t he have some issues and got dropped a couple of times?

Galvin shits all over Sam.

The Roosters results have been below average with a roster full of superstars with Walker at 7.

There’s a good reason no deal has been done.

He was talking about his debut season. Walker was successful and the Roosters played in the Semi.

If Sam Walker wore our colours we'd have him lined up to become the next Immortal.

Galvin has the same inconsistancy in his game right now, but without Walker's kicking game.

Gotta call BS there sorry. He’d be missing a thousand tackles in our system.

Roosters hide him well.

Probably. Like I said, Galvin & Walker have that same inconsistent level to their game.

Big woop. With that roster they should be winning at 80% plus.

I firmly believe uncle Nick will move off Sam W.

So what?
That’s not the topic.
You’ve skewed it off course

Galvin in year one in a shitty backline that changes weekly has been exceptional.

Comparing his form to guys who are playing on top teams is apples and oranges.

My apologies if I did, didn’t read all earlier posts.

Mark my word though, Roosters would move off Walker to take Lachie.

You probably judged Brooks purely on his win loss ratio too.

Environment matters.

Yeah probably

Yes I judged Brooks.
I had a lot of data to use.
He was completely overrated by this club as a halfback.

That’s fair.

But surely win/loss ratio is not a reliable indicator of a players ability when they play at this club. That doesn’t separate the Bula’s and Galvin’s from the Nadens and Seyfarth’s in any way.

At 18, to hold your gloves up all season in this side, and look like a future star, imo is exceptional.

Harry Grant had a similar season here.

I’m not judging his win loss ratio.
I judge how well our attack flowed.
I judge his first season as surprising, encouraging and a good beginning. The kid can play. He can handle first grade.

…and FTR, I’m not sold on Harry being elite either.

Could be argued that the club itself doesn't have Galvin top of the list.

Galvin was on the roster last season.

Then the club signed Latu Fainu to play the same role.

Then the club added Luai to play that role too.

Both guys signed for 5 years.

No doubt Galvin has had a good first season. But injury put Fainu behind Galvin. Galvin took that opportunity & ran with it. Fainu hasn't been lucky enough to string enough games together to have that impact.

All good for Galvin.

But that doesn't disprove that the club, with Galvin in hand, signed 2 players to 5 year deals to play his spot.

Is Galvin the beneficiary of recency over ability right now?

NO , u take what u can see on the field , he is the only real attacking weapon we have, if he doesn’t create it nothing happens

I thought they were talking his long term spot was back row or lock?

 

[The Chad]

Different argument, but yes- I think he's going to end up in the backrow.

Wade Graham style career development.

 

[tigers.]

Benji = 3 finals appearances in 12 years

Best highlights of any player bar none

Best 5/8 if he had a solid team and half back around him

Could he carry a team and manage a game plan ? No he couldn’t hence why we made 3 finals in 12 years

And yes just my opinion

If I had a choice between Benji as my dominant half for 10 yrs or galvin I’d take galvin

Respect your opinion, just don't agree with it. But I do hope your right about Galvin and I hope Galvin stays a tiger but I just have a feeling he will leave.
