OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277

[Needaname]

I think there is abit of a difference these blokes are seasond veterans a majority of our team are rookies. Rookies would struggle in a system like that specially when we loose as many games as we did.
As our team gains more experience and more pressure mounts on them things will intensify but for now I can see why benji has gone with this approach

A little from column a, a little from column b.

This worries me about Benji, do you really want training to be chill? Would training at the Storm be chill?

"Especially how chill he makes it and how fun he is. He tells me to go out there and enjoy myself and that I play this sport for fun. "

It's an interesting concept though - Madge was a hard task-master and by many reports this approach doesn't work so well with younger players any more.

Two of the best coaches of the past 20 years, Bellamy and Bennett, one is a high-intensity boss with very specific game plans, the other is a renowned man-manager who is good at getting performances out of his roster. Benji has a significant history with Bennett and it's not surprising his management style leans more towards "the feels" rather than a military-style approach.

I would not be surprised at all, over the next 10 years, if the military style of coaching gradually falls out of favour, based on the needs and expectations of younger generations.

Like it or not, the sooky la la's may in fact be making all the decisions over the upcoming decades, and those of us in nursing homes will hope they don't suddenly become brutally indifferent la la's when it comes to our ongoing geriatric care.

That's a huge rap from Api

 

[Telltails]

We would be a much better team if all our players were as motivated as Galvin to train, to compete, and to win. Add Luai to the mix it can only be a good thing.

[innsaneink]

Well done Gal...just dont get any ideads about the new team eh?

Deserves its own thread but no, lets bury it amongst 177 pages

 

[gallagher]

Great achievement for him, well deserved.

In the channel 9 segment with Joey and Fitler, Galvin said everyone keeps giving it to him at training that his future is in the backrow, he almost seemed resigned to it, just wants to delay it for as long as possible.

Galvin 11, Samuela 12. Thats some good attack in the backrow.

It also solves a problem.

Anyone remember a better defensive half especially at 18.

The closest for me was Lamb at 18 with the maggies.

Noticed at the back end this year Galvin wasn't even targeted much in defence by opposition coaches...........
..rare for any half especially a rookie.

He held his own when ran straight at. He was wasn’t good laterally and was rarely dominant/easily bumped off when in cover.
Certainly a part of his game that needs work.
