OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

Anyone remember a better defensive half especially at 18.

The closest for me was Lamb at 18 with the maggies.

Noticed at the back end this year Galvin wasn't even targeted much in defence by opposition coaches...........
..rare for any half especially a rookie.
as good as he is (Galvin),he is a 2 trick pony with potential,i still remember were i was(primary school) when his relo told me he was of 2 the dogs,$$$$
 
He’s gone.
Where were we?
Our defensive halves….Surely Luai can bring some systems with him that will get our backline understanding how to work together. This year was our worst in 25 years.
 
Certainly potential.

Seriously though can't think of too many better pairings as defensive halves, notoriously a week spot for all clubs.
Yea...

Trying to think:
Hugues/Munster is probably one of the better ones.
DCE/Brooks is decent, because DCE is just that good.
Cronulla don't do too badly as Hynes/Trindal can tackle. ....

O'sullivan/Milford for the Dolphins perhaps? (if they go with that pairing). Which could be Katoa/Nikorima??

oh yea, forgot Cleary/Luai... Which I am certain Penrith will keep Luai's replacement defending well
 
Look Galvin is just a rookie, but he is a good defender in comparison to most 5/8s and especially at 18.

But just thinking about the the best defensive halves I've seen since 1975.

1) Wally Lewis tied with Ellery Hanley.

Daylight second.

2) Andrew Johns and Terry Lamb.

3) Brad Fittler and Greg Florimo

4) Tom Raudonikis and Alfie Langer an also Des Hasler .

Honarable mentions to Mick Neil, Michael Morgan.

I'm sure I missed someone.
