He wasn't as bad as people are saying last night.

Weird game. Dogs could've been up by more and then totally switched off in the last 15 along with a Mam masterclass.

Oh yes he was. I was gobsmacked at just how bad he was. Every time the Dogs got on a roll he'd kill the momentum with a hospital pass. Reminded me of Benji when he was playing badly before moving to Souffs. The coupe de grace was a dud pass resulting in a spilled ball that the Broncos picked up and scored the try that got them going.

If there were player ratings, he would have scored the lowest on field, maybe a 3.

I noticed that also - multiple Broncos players were gushing over him after the game.

Yeah I noticed to that too. Probably knew that he was going to cop it with fans and the press who turn like cut snakes.
Players get paid well but they also cop plenty on social media and with the press these days and no young player has been first and foremost in the press than him. Id say they were just saying don't listen to the noise.

100%, according to Adel Hage, Richo wanted to go to court and fight it but the board said no. Also said someone at the club told him, it was Holman Barnes Group that demanded that Galvin be put back into first grade after Benji dropped him.

A prefer to believe/hope that none of that is true just for my own sanity.

My thoughts are why would they care? Isn’t that an advantage to their own team?
 
Unless we become more professional in football administration this black eye press will always happen to the West Tigers mud stick and bullshit walks.

Galvin was never going to stay at the Tigers even if Wayne Bennett was our coach, there is certain people who believe that he is Bigger than Campbelltown and the West Tigers.

Galvin wanted out well before we even signed Luai and Galvin never played 13 in any grade.

That’s not true . Galvin wanted out in September of the year we signed Latu , which was around August .
It was 💯 because we signed Latu . We had made promises to him about his pathway , so fair enough .
Then it really kicked off when we signed Luai . Everything was fine , or getting better , then Latu comes back from injury and trains all pre season , often out shining Galvin , and luai starts to wonder openly why Galvin is in front of Latu. Their relationship becomes strained , and Galvin says F this shit , I’m out .
IMO whoever promised Galvin the keys to the castle in the halves has lost his mind . And the constant signing of halves doesn’t exactly show faith in the idea either .
So whilst Galvin is a traitorous turd , and deliberately tried to derail the tigers season , I have zero doubt in that , I blame Ronald McDonnell and The sheenius for the promises made early to him . I think we dodged a bullet IMO .

Galvin thought that he was getting bullied at the Tigers, the poor guy has gone from the oven to the frying pan at Belmore, they're fans are alot more rabid than us. In truth, he will improve the more he plays with them, how good who really knows. His biggest problem is accepting that he's not a half if it doesn't workout, I can't see him as a halfback but Ciraldo knows much more than me and knows what he's doing. But if it doesn't work out and Ciraldo needs to have a chat to him in 2 - 3 years about moving into the forwards I think Galvin might leave for another crack elsewhere. Either that or the Dogs just get rid of him like they've been doing to the other players who havnt worked out.

AD is 28 and still thinks he’s a half first at nrl standard . His career is almost over ..
 
liltiger said:
100% spot on, just think it was a bit of a hail Mary play to keep him at the club, I get why Richo would try it, though he was asking to be released the year prior so there was next to no chance of it working. I guess it would be kind of like a due diligence thing by the ceo. If he doesn't make an offer and never gets rejected and Galvin becomes the goat. Everyone will blame Richo for not trying.

I still reckon it was to draw him out into the open by Richo . Sponsors and people with power around the club had told of this situation with the dogs happening in January , with the rumour of a contract there .
I thought it was the eels , because that’s thier modus operende , they’re always breaking the rules behind closed doors , but I was wrong . But guys with thier ears to the ground in the inner west were on top of this since January . So if we know 💯 that this had been relayed to Richo , which we 💯 do because Rob Bechara said he was one of the people who told the club in January , then only a fool would dismiss it . And Richo doesn’t seem a fool to me . I think he made a calculated risk to offer overs , get rejected which he knew it would , and have the press release out an hour later . Like everyone said , the sheer speed at which it all happened seems suss to me. Like it was pre planned .

What I said was true.

I said he wanted out before we signed Luai. You are talking about Latu. Latu was with us a year before Luai.

No It wasnt , you don’t offer massive contracts as a bluff or to draw the bad guys out in the open . This is not an RPG game or a Hollywood movie

Yeh they knew about it , hence the overs because they were desperate to keep him.

If it was to draw them out and not look like the bad guys , then he wouldn’t have put out that stupid press release … because it frankly was childish and way unprofessional from a CEO of all people with the comment we offered the best ever contract to a junior
