They will be the next big drama that dominates 360. If they lose to Souths next week, which I think they will, then they definitely will lose to Penrith the week after. That’s 3 losses in a row, when they were lucky to even win their first two. They’ve been riding on this false facade since the start of last season that they are competition heavyweights. They aren’t. Any semblance of a chance they had of being one, went out the door the moment they punted their 7 and 9 while on top of the ladder halfway through last season. They have been riding on their early season form ever since. They were shocking at the back end of last season, going out of the finals in straight sets, and they have been lucky so far this season. Their facade is about to come crashing down, so much so that I don’t even think they will make the 8. I don’t think pretenders are even a strong enough word for them. Souths are pretenders. The Dogs are imposters.

Spot on.

He is getting paid ten times more than his output. Not saying he is not trying, but when you’re being paid more than 75% of your team mates there is an expectation you can deliver and make a major contribution to your team. At present there is effort but it’s not producing anything for his team and that’s what he is being paid to do

I think you are hitting the nail on the head here...

Galvin is 'trying'.

The big salary, the big performance effort. He is pushing and pushing and pushing.
Just like Luke Brooks did. Too much effort all over the place.

You can't be a halfback like that. You have to get a feel for the game. IMHO if I was Ciraldo I would move Galvin to Fullback if I want him to learn how the team flows. Halfback ain't Galvin's position.

Galvin ran over 200 metres his stats will always look good based on the back of his work ethic. A coaches dilemma.

At some point if things don't turn around some one will become answerable.

I never get that stat. Sure, there needs to be level of effort, but the real stat is meters per run - how effective you are. A large number of meters can just mean you never pass.

Again? Isn't that 2 weeks in a row he does a hip drop and he only gets a fine...that was a classic hip drop.
The Knights player was very lucky he didnt sustain an injury. Should have got a week considering its his 3rd charge on that offence in just over 2 years

Yes, 2 weeks in a row, and all he has got is two small fines.

I don’t take enjoyment out of seeing a young man fail.
I do take enjoyment in seeing Gould proven wrong yet again.
That moron gets far more wrong than right…it’s baffling why NSW supporters revere him.

I never mind if a player leaves the club on good terms even if they play better elsewhere it is when they treat the club badly that i dislike them and never want to see them involved in our club again or win a premiership at any club.Moses treated the club the worst then Galvin and third place goes to Morrisson.

Doesnt have the pace for fullback

Woods is way worse than Morrison. All Morrisin did was choose a good offer from a stronger club. I dont remember him dogging us

Big stef is a good example. It sucked to see him go but I do enjoy seeing him play well at the storm. Even papalili to a degree. For whatever reason we told him to look elsewhere and now hes probably on track to play in a grand final.

Bateman and Noffa who are disliked by a few here.. but in my limited interactions with them, they both went above and beyond for my family members - so ill always remember them as good blokes, no matter what happened after. I think they were probably both victims of change management, but thats just me talking out my backside.

Dont remember dogging us??????? He was Captain at the time, just like that flea Woods.

Was he the captain? Anyway, I saw Morrison play as a junior and I new he wasnt a great loss. He didnt go onto any great heights at all and probably wpuld have sent Balmain broke if he stayed. Woods was way worse. Long term captain, rep player and tried to get other good players to leave.

What grade?

Division 2 Superleague.

Lachlan Galvin is honestly one of the most bizarre cases in rugby league. I have never seen such media hype for a young player. Maybe Latrell Mitchell when he was at the Roosters. But this guy?

Like yeah, he is talented, but the way the media spoke about him, it was like he was the second coming of Andrew Johns. I'll never forget the hype piece Matty Johns did on him. Genuine cringe. Don't know what he was thinking. Must have been paid big to do that.

Haven't missed him one second. Rotten attitude and not a team player. Only cares about how he is doing, couldn't give two stuffs about his team mates. Couldn't be bothered putting in the hard yards here, only used us as a stepping stone so he could walk into a ready-made top 4 squad. Then the club he joined had to dump two integral players to accommodate him, that must've done wonders who squad morale.

He should change his name to Wayne Kerr.

Ash Taylor springs to mind. That ended well! I remember commentators saying Tigers would rue Luke Brookes leaving. How’s that turned out. If anything he’s been even less effective at Manly. Galvin will be the same. For all the hype, I could name 5 young halves already a level better than him.

 

[SwervinMervin]

Braith is one of the best. He tells it as it is without the BS.

The worst of them are Read, Riccio, Weidler and Dobbin who are basically just mouthpieces for clubs and agents who throw them the occasional exclusive. At least Read can be funny.
