He also said he hadnt put in a phone call...

I think he was trying to say that once it's been put out there and submitted, it's hard to retract.

No it isn’t.

Not hard to say we’ve had a further chat to Lachlan and he said he’s happy with the way Benji & the club have responded to the situation a couple of weeks ago following the initial emotional responses, which could have been handled better.

But that’s probably not the REAL issue is it??
 
Galvin played fine but you can see he def has certain parts of the media on his side - he didn't deserve two DM points from this game. Many players better. He was fine but missed two easy tackles for two tries as well as other lapses. He supposedly "had a strong hand in all three tries" but seriously isn't that what a half is supposed to do - scoring off a midfield bomb isn't really a try assist in my books as well as Turuva's try was To a - LG made the first only. Who was the Dally M judge for the game??

My guess we will hang on to him for this season and part company at the end of the year. That will give them a full pre season to bed in Latu. I also expect it would involve some sort of compensation from the mystery club he is going to…Parra

Of course could be wrong, but that way the club is been seen as strong by not buckling to Moses straight away. It will also give the media circus time to pack up and move on

I think thats how it plays out and is the least disruptive
 
From the MSN article:

After the match, Galvin said, "I wanted to make sure I came in and was doing everything for the team, it wasn’t about me this week. It was Anzac Round and we just wanted to come in and do everyone proud, do our fans proud."

Inside the Tigers camp, those who mattered most stood firmly behind him. Teammate Adam Doueihi praised Galvin’s resilience during the post-match press conference, saying: “He’s a kid that’s probably been a bit rattled over the past few weeks... but inside our four walls, we do have high respect for the kid”

Galvin’s determination wasn't just inspiring—it was contagious. And right now, no matter what the future holds, Lachlan Galvin’s heart still beats orange and black.

The Dally M votes are anonymously lodged by two independent judges for each NRL game, and determined by a 3-2-1 system.

All the votes from each round can be found on the NRL website before the leaderboard goes behind closed doors after Round 12.

I think if we don't land for 2026
either
DCE or Reynolds
we will hold Galvin to his 2026 contract

Is our Top 30 squad stronger if Galvin remains for 2026? The answer is yes so why should we give another club a leg up. Financial compensation is of no use in this tight player market and there is the much wider issue of this setting a precedent for other schoolboy stars which come through our Pathways.

I agree but Iam not sure it will pan out that way. The club has been very up front they will not release him, but history tells me players who want out usually get a release

As Ken Arthurson said when he signed Ray Brown from Wests even though Manly had the incumbent Australian hooker Max Krillich, it's not just about strengthening his club it's about weakening the opposition.
If Parra don't get Galvin in '26 they're stuffed. No decent 6 is signing when they know he's coming.
I like that idea.

The other issue is he will only cost $350,000 next year which may allow WTs to buy another good young player to strengthen the roster.

Gould is a massive Pratt. Watching his pod cast on 9 now from last week is deplorable. Obviously Gould is in pond scum’s corner, blaming the club for releasing the statement. Gould said that all the poor manger did was said ‘don’t bother offering a contact Galvin won’t be here’. It’s the tigers that have blown it out of proportion! His co host said what about the dossier and Gould just dismissed it, the co host kept him to task. But Gould kept sweeping, he keeps claiming inside knowledge, gee wonder where this comes from?? Watch the pod cast. He is slimy at best, bet in each camp. But definitely in the Moses or Galvin Camp!
All the manager did was reject their offer, please…

Id advise ppl not to watch it...he only benefits
 
Big shout out to the WT supporters at Leichhardt last Sunday, they at large concentrated on their support of the team leaving the controversy surrounding Lachie to one side.
A really mature response from our fan base which I doubt could have been replicated by most other supporter groups, I'm sure Benji and the club at large would have been genuinely most appreciative of that response.

It was a great response from the tigers supporters but let's not cast too many aspersions on other fan bases. We have a pretty chequered history, hence the concern at the time.
