OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[Tiger_Yoshi]

I am sick of the Galvin circus and I dare say Richo and Benji are too. This is all being driven by his Manager and his Parents,(with the blessing of Galvin of course)... Galvin should be either be committed or not to the WT....he should know by now what his intentions are.....

By stringing us along as he is doing, this is only having a negative effect on the club and the rest of the players.

What would Latu be thinking I can only wonder?...

Give Galvin by round 10 (generous) to either sign a long extenstion or be demoted to reserve grade or shift to lock so we can develop Latu or Mason as our long term #6.

Its time this circus around Galvin is nipped in the bud!

Unfortunately, the timing and money for Browns move is obviously of great interest to Galvin/Moses so he’ll be in no hurry. Especially with Gould talking him up ad well.
For what it’s worth, imo Luai is a 5/8 not a 7 so I’d be swapping them asap.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Yes exactly. Thanks for makingbthat correction

Galvin going left means he is running sideways!!!!!!
That is why he stuffed up the left attack. Crowded them, players didn't know what he was going to do? Nor did Galvin for that matter. Last resort grubber kicks at full speed sideways that always failed. No idea or plan what he was doing. A puppy with the ball in his mouth having fun. Not what is required Mr. Benji. Mr. Luai.

 

[hank37w]

Also is an explanation for very little ball getting out to the right side.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

If Galvin and Luai don’t click after round 5 latu should be given a go…we have to remember we have bud back on our books next season also(whilst avg. he will provide depth)

Under no circumstances would I be releasing Galvin early…we have him for another year on cheap coin…he can play in a number of spots and provide depth if need be.

Worst case for us for 2026 we rock with
Nrl
7.Luai
6.Latu

NSW cup
7.Bud
6.Galvin

Galvin 7
Bud 6

 

[Buttface]

if Galvin does sign elsewhere for 2026 (likely)
7. Fainu
6. Luai
13. Galvin

And wait for his release request every Monday morning from his manager.

No it actually means Luai and Galvin were playing more like inside outside players and not left to right halves.

The Panthers did not release Luai early. The Eels did not release Utoikamanu early. The other clubs can have their cheque books ready for 2027.

I didn’t say we had to release him.
Just that if he signs somewhere else I bet there’s a request for release most weeks, especially after a loss.

Understood.

If Galvin signs elsewhere, I would move him to the backrow unless we can secure a very good swap. We'd be crazy to drop him to reserves out of spite or worse still, let him go early without compensation.

Stick him in the front row that will fix him for his new team lol 🥴

 

[TT 01]

We just need to make sure we don’t pay overs. Make an offer, be comfortable with it and if he takes more money elsewhere so be it. Latu is a capable back-up.

For me it's more so the pain of losing him & who he signs for... I'm sick of losing players to Parra and Storm. Cant see the Storm making a play so do suspect it'll be Parra...or Roosters.

 

[WesternSuburbsBoy]

Believe me or don't believe me Galvins future 100% depends on how the team travels this year. If we are still in the finals race by August or September he will extend with the club. If the team is travelling poorly he is gone. One thing I know for sure is our offer will be as good as anywhere else. He loves the club & really wants to stay but wants to make sure the team will improve before committing long term.

 

[Kaito]

We're in a good position I'm not worried

 

[innsaneink]

We there yet?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Not yet. Another few thousand posts.

 

[Tigerdazz2]

This is what happens when a good kid gets a shady player agent provocateur like Moses. He's not exactly on the Christmas card list of the Wests Tigers.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

You are kind. Shady is a nice word.

So his heart is only in if we win?....so entitled...!!!....playing sport, I learned how to lose first (humbly) before I celebrated any wins
