OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

[Jedi_Tiger]

When he is on the field he looks a far more complete 1/2 albeit he will need to work hard on his short and long kicking game. His genuine pace from the inside backs is needed by the team.

galvin had played a lot more games, i will review latu IF he gets back on the field for more than 2 games in a row

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

So anyone got an idea on why him and TDS went in to the sheds so quick at the end?

TDS will follow him to Parramatta

 

[Bula]

hate to say it but in some way we are lucky that we have Bud in our back pocket

Having Bud in your back pocket may explain a few things.

They wanted to get to the Hawaiian burger place in Brisbane before the rest of the team got there…

It’s gunna be great to read here after each game , over whatever remaining time Galvin has left at the club, all the body language experts reading his vibe and trying to determine if he really wants to be there …

I doubt the Tigers want him back … but Souffs might have already marked him Return to Sender

 

[Ron Brodrick's Spirit]

Can we all stop reading the tea leaves on TDS and Galvin.
They left the field early, so what.
Take a look at the team song, they're both involved, particularly TDS who looks like he's having a great time.
Stop searching for doom and gloom and enjoy winning.

TDS will follow him to Parramatta

You would have to think it’s a possibility although if he was to leave I think Gus is the person who will get his signature..been some whispers around for a few weeks that Gus has had a few chats with the kid

Just reading Danny Weasels column in the SMH and he goes to lengths to bag Steve Stratton ( WT podcast presenter and a forum contributor). He is upset that he has been linked to Moses and is anti Tigers. He is a total stain on the game and a waste of space, but what upsets me the most is I actually read the garbage he wrote!

 

[tonza]

Galvin was turnstyle in defence today . He put huge amounts of pressure on Seyfarth and his centres both bird and Naden .
He was a bit of a passenger tonight .
Latu needs to get his body right . I feel like we would have made a huge mistale
Giving Galvin 1mil. Maybe when he’s 24, so the contract after this next one , but not for this next one . He’s just not even remotely worth it .

Finally someone that sees it like me. He was a turnstyle last week as well.

Might have been directives to avoid the interviews.

Thats your first mistake.

As far as the rest of it, I never took to much notice of Weidler, but it's hard to not think he has some sort of agenda when he starts on Bula in that interview about whether he is happy or not at the club given that he is a long way off being able to to go to market. There's an awful lot of players he could ask that to at other clubs who are actually going to be off contract before Bula.

 

[Furious1]

You know, I was watching tonight and by the end had the thought that so far this season he hasn't exactly set the world on fire and done enough to categorise him as potentially one of the higher paid players in the NRL next contract....

Seems a fait accompli his new club will be revealed in time, but to be honest if I were that club I'd be pretty concerned. I don't see much - if any - progress from last season. Mitigating circumstances or not, he isn't better at his job than he was last year.

The worrying thing (for him) is that it is (legally) impossible he has already signed on the dotted line and confirmed his new contract; he must have only agreed in principle, and I don't get the impression there is an overflowing of honour in these dealings.

I remember Addo-Carr was coming back to the tigers and ended up at the dogs. Tigers likely played and used as leverage there, but the issues I see for Galvin are:

1. Wests Tigers are a far stronger proposition in the player market in 2025, no longer pushovers. On the contrary, Richardson appears to have already allocated the money they would've used on his upgrade.

2. His form could see him playing a lot of NSW cup - especially if Latu stays fit and kills it. Worse still, he could get injured.

3. His next club (whichever aquatic serpentine that may be) has no legal obligation to keep his offer on the table - let alone pay him $1M a season - as it cannot technically currently exist.

Doesn't that just fit with his narrative that he feels he will be developed better at another club?

Sorry mate Iam dinosaur I read it on hard print the old fashion way!,

 

[innsaneink]

Call of nature, chaffing - who knows? I don't see it as a particular issue as Marshall and the players are winning and performing.

Someone has to be first in eh...maybe he needed a pee

Not surprised Weidler dislikes reading the truth about himself.He is a complete shit stain of a man

I thought Luai running our attack and kicking today was much better, Galvin is a solid partner in the interim

Our defence really let us down, not sure what happened there as we normally do okay

A mate of mine (who has an amazing footy brain) pointed out to me earlier in the season that the Tigers need to have stability in the centres, to be good in defence.

It makes sense. The edge is where good/bad decisions can result in overlaps and tries are scored. It's also where we have had instability in recent years when we've been woeful.

And last night we had Naden in the centres for half the game, who isn't a centre. He was found out a few times and got lucky on others. He's a good player, just not a centre

Given the way the game was referreed last night, you can somewhat put a line through some of the defensive issues we had. Every chance the ref got, he was telling players to get out of the tackle and calling held incredibly early. It's like he wanted a game of touch footy. It went both ways. But it impacted our ability to control the speed of the ruck and gave us significantly less time to restructure in defence.

 

[Bigscreentv]

I think Galvin definitely feels out of sorts a little on the field because they are clearly making him less of a decision maker in attack. There was a moment where Luai took the field goal, Galvin held on a little too long and it was obvious Luai was demanding the ball Galvin was second-guessing, but he fell into line. He doesn’t like playing of structure - he wants it to be like last year where Benji just said do what you see, whereas that was because they probably knew he just needed to get comfortable in first grade. Now there’s more expectations and he can’t just play schoolboy footy anymore.

Funny thing is it will be like this at any successful club.

If TDS wants to go now because he wants to be a regular starter at 19 then he can to be honest. No one has any patience anymore. He should stay, develop under api and be the successor as a 22 year old for another 10-12 years.

Definitely - we win by much more if Toa there last night.

I have heard two different things about him for next year
