How? Who are we swapping him with?
He is still contracted for a year and a half.
What is a fair trade based on contract length and his market value?

Reality is I feel like Eels will win a premiership with Moses and Galvin and Isaac Moses can't go too wrong. How can we win?
How does he play 1sts when hes basically launched legal action against the club,.coach and team mates

You can see the difference in the coaches by the way the team hits the ground after running out of the sheds at halftime.

It's not bullying. I worked in OH&S and bullying is a longstanding pattern of behaviour. He can validly claim harassment, but not bullying. Trouble is, his lawyer can make black white. This is standard Isaac Moses playbook. He did it with Mitch and now he's at it again.
Also, WT had a full pre-season with Galvin. This carry-on will cost WT a fortune. In an ideal world, WT would be able to sue Isaac Moses and Galvin for damaging their season, especially with their manipulations.
And I wonder involved has Parra been in this issue? They have form for pulling strings behind the scenes after the Mitch Moses fiasco.
I would have Galvin sit out until the end of 2027. WT should not have to play against him before his contract ends.

So they've had Lane take time off...
Joffa released to England.
Matterson can't make the team.
And they'd let origin player Hopgood go?
Why aren't the media reporting on this mass exodus.
They'll have 2.5 million odd in the halves with Moses and Galvin and be filling the rest of the team with reserve grade players.
Not that unusual at allBulldogs out of Galvin race as fresh player concerns raised about Tigers

- what’s unusual is clubs having such shit players on top 30 contracts to begin with.
Eels sent momoisea back to below ressies as well I reckon,
Funny 2 players who both peaked in U16’s are taking exception to WT’s employing them for the last 3 years when no one else would have…
Should be interesting - you’d reckon we’d have plenty of video evidence to provide about how well they’ve been playing in lower grades.
Can u post the whole thing plz mateBulldogs out of Galvin race as fresh player concerns raised about Tigers

What hope have we got then?
Their (reserve grade) Outside backs just makes ours look like the women’s comp.
The Bulldogs have withdrawn from the race to sign Lachlan Galvin, leaving Parramatta as the firm frontrunners to lure the 19-year-old half to the Eels as Dylan Brown’s replacement.
The news comes as another two Wests Tigers players have raised concerns about their alleged mistreatment at the club with the Rugby League Players Association.
Canterbury general manager Phil Gould has been glowing in his praise of Galvin during the past 12 months and it was widely anticipated the Bulldogs would make a significant play for the rising star.
After watching the Galvin saga unfold at the Tigers, the Bulldogs had internal discussions in recent days to decide whether they would enter the market whenever the teenager became a free agent.
Gould, however, has revealed that the Bulldogs have decided against any such bid.
“We are not involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion and we won’t be involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion,” Gould told this masthead. “We wish him all the best.”
Gould remains a big believer in Galvin’s ability, but given the Bulldogs’ recent form as they have roared to the top of the table after an unbeaten start to the year, the club is not in a position to make a move on the want-away Tigers playmaker.
With Wests Tigers already facing a legal fight with Galvin over allegations of bullying, the Herald can reveal that fellow top 30 players Justin Matamua and Brandon Tumeth have both raised grievances with the RLPA about unfair treatment by the club.
On the day that Galvin ran out for Western Suburbs in NSW Cup, it emerged the RLPA has launched an investigation into the Tigers’ treatment of young forwards Matamua and Tumeth – who played together in the NSW under-19 side in 2022.
Matamua, managed by George Ghazal, made his debut for the Tigers as an 18-year-old in 2022, but has been playing for Ryde-Eastwood Hawks in Ron Massey Cup (the tier below reserve grade).
Tumeth, once named the NSW under-16 player of the year, has experienced an even steeper decline, dropped to a grade below Matamua (Sydney Shield) for Ryde-Eastwood. Tumeth is managed by Isaac Moses, who also represents Galvin.
Moses also represents John Bateman and David Klemmer, who both recently left the Tigers.
Sources with knowledge of the situation talking on the condition of anonymity due to confidentiality told the Herald the RLPA is set to ask the Tigers for a ‘please explain’ in the coming days.
The RLPA and Wests Tigers declined to comment.
It is unusual for any club to have two top 30 players in the third- or fourth-tier competitions.
The RLPA has been in regular discussions with the Tigers this season via their involvement in matters relating to Klemmer, Bateman, Jacob Miller, Solomona Faataape, Galvin, Tumeth and Matamua.

If we say he is valued at a million…it’s probably more tbh, and he is contracted for 18 months here, then by rights a swap deal should equal somewhere north of 1.5 million.
Hopgood on his own isn’t enough.

What's his vested interest? As opposed to all of them on 9 like smith who were managed by Moses too?
Braith doesn't want to manage Galvin..he just wants the managers to abide by the rules and not break them, as it has been suggested a deal is already done with Parra.
It's ok to have an opinion on something without trying to get something out of it.

The law have been amended - OH&S is history, WHS laws apply now
