OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

Tucker said:
Penrith are a classic example:
  • in 2021 they were aware they were losing Burton - one of the hottest young properties in the league and Capewell - a very experienced and current Origin player. As well as others including Pangai Jr and Naden.
  • in 2022 they were aware they were losing Kikau - one of the most dangerous edge runners in the league and Koroisau - a very experienced and current Origin player. As well as others including Hopgood, Staines, jennings and O'sullivan.
  • in 2023 they were aware they were losing Crichton - the best centre in the league and Lenui - a very explosive benchie with SOO potential. As well as others including Hosking, Salmon and Cogger.
  • in 2024 they were aware they were losing Luai - a local mainstay, SOO rep and one of the best no.6s in the world and Fisher-Harris - a tough as nails prop and current captain of NZ. As well as others including Turuva and Iongi.
Did they [This word has been automatically removed] and whine and start crap on social media and become the number one news article about player riffs and let these players leave early etc...
Nope.
They won the GF each year and then got on the piss for a week as they said their goodbyes.
Kenty is a bit of a dipshit, but he is right on this one.

That's a cool theory, but here's the truth....

Group 1:
Burton, Capwell, Pangai Jr , Naden, Kikau, Korosau, Hopgood, Staines, Jennings, Osullivan, Critta, Spencer, Hosking, Cogger, Salmon , Fisher Harris, Luai, Turuva, Iongi

Group 2:
Galvin

Out of the 19 panthers players leaving, I dont recall hearing anything about any one of those players having negative things to say about the club or playing group.

Galvin did.

Where's my proof?

Someone I grew up playing footy with who played NRL with a current tigers player, informed me that Galvin was a fkn jerk and basically called the playing group shit to their faces. This isnt someone I can message daily for updates, or i become "that guy".... but I got the info at the time when it happened.

Why the fk do you think Terrell May told him to stfu and sit down? These guys play for money. It was never about Galvin just leaving for money, its the way he did it and throwing shit at his team mates and club on the way out.

No, it's not in the media. But it was the message passed on from a senior player, to a former player, to me.

I am led to believe that this caused a rift between Galvin and TDS for a short period of time.

Why do you think that Luai had said that Galvin had to "earn our respect" or whatever the exact quote was, when asked about him returning to the NRL? That comment isn't about money, never was. The only money banter was from Tito, which was meant to be funny taking the piss to a group of his mates... but this has just distracted everyone from the truth of it all.

You can argue with me till you are blue in the face, but this sh1t went down.

And anyone that has played a team sport will understand that if you do this as an indiviudal against your team - then shit is going to hit the fan.

Richo and Benji protected Galvin (they do have the kids best interest at heart) and themselves from Moses camp with their legal action by playing him the following few weeks.

Tucker, I've revealed where I got my info from. So if you can come to terms with this, I might actually give you another chance.

Penrith were laden with talent and couldn't keep them all due to salary cap restrictions and in Burton's case lack of pathway in favoured position due to Cleary and Luai. Strong clubs have to face that reality.
The situation with Galvin is vastly different and the managers involvement inflamed the situation with fans that were philosophical about him not taking up the offer but were then filthy about the tactics used to get him out of honouring his contract.
Dont think any of Penrith players agitated for early release by making bullying accusations.
 
Anyone been on the Kennel to see their reactions?

Pity that they have a bye this week. Wouldve been interesting if they had lost 2 in a row.

Love the drama it creates that's got nothing to do with us.

Funny thing is we can just keep delaying his release and keep asking for more money haaha

He said they were shit to their faces? Where does this kid’s audacity come from?

Theyre not comparable...not even close

No, youre right.
That club was losing far bigger players, who had been with the club for far longer and whose exit impact could be seen at the time to be far more devastating.
They acted like professionals and worked together.

IN your business, if you had an employee talking shit about the company and team - does everyone just get on with it?

Or do humans act like humans and have emotional reactions?

Just asking, incase you work with robots
 
I said earlier this has some Adam Blair vibes about it. Imagine if they lose Mahoney and Sexton to land young turdhead and go backwards as a result. I could understand Parra being this desperate but I don’t know why the Dogs are prepared to take this risk. It will also be interesting to know what the extent of the player revolt is at Belmore.

did any of the players you speak of turn up with a dossier of grievances regarding the head coach that had given them the opportunity to play first grade and develop?

Honestly, we aren't getting any money from letting him go early. $165k is nothing, the moment he comes close to signing with someone, we can delay it by asking for more money.

Make him sit at home and screw up other team's seasons.

Maybe we can go and approach Dolphins and ask them to put in a bid and ask them for a return player.

Literally anything is better than $165k.transfer that doesn't help us with our cap.

No. I employ management strategies to work through the issue.
I once had 2 operators punchon in the site shed and were kicked off site by the primary contractor. Ive also had an employee attack a primary contractor union rep at a pub out of hours.
Both instances caused a tonne of havoc and threatened current and furture contracts.
I sorted it out.

I'm on the floor laughing. YOU settle disputes? Hahahaha you literally cause them for fun and have no clue how to settle something amicably. You know what? if some moron is paying you to do that then full credit to you mate, I have to give you props for that one. That's like paying Putin to be world peacemaker

so therefore, the situation and circumstances are entirely different, yes?
