As a Dogs fan, I never expected the Galvin signing and I never really wanted it. When it happen, I bought into the hype the was sold to us, best junior ever blah blah blah.

tonight, if Galvin doesn’t play we win by 40. He is so out of sync that it ain’t funny. It’s horrible to watch. Bronx tonight were horrible, a wooden spoon team and Galvins lack of awareness cost us plenty of errors and opportunities to win this.

We likely win last week without Galvin too.

Galvin may end up being an immortal and a great signing but this year ain’t it. Send him to NSW cup

What a f**king stink bomb from the Dogs

Galvin is a huge talent, no one could deny that, in years to come he might be one of the best in the game but he's legitimately the most overrated player in the game right now. His level of performance doesnt sniff his hype right now.
Twice tonight he blew tries playing into traffic when if the balls sings out wide its probably a try.

we’re 4 games in hard to judge

it’s not that Galvin sucks, it’s how the dogs are using him. Every time he’s played they’ve moved someone out of a crucial position to accommodate

he and the dogs always seemed an odd pairing. I still have no idea why he didn’t go parra, trophy hunting I guess

That loss is on Ciraldo for changing the spine before kick-off.

Galvin is still barely integrating into the side and should still be playing half a game off the bench for the foreseeable future. Shifting Burton to left centre, Xerri to right and putting all the pressure on Galvin to aim up so soon was a mistake.

Galvin has absolutely created a headache for Ciraldo. Not a good one either that coaches talk about when they got some young buck nipping at the heels, it's Burton or Galvin for mine. This thing he's doing where he changes the spine 3/4 into the game, it's going to hurt them a lot more than it did tonight. Can't help but to feel that Gus pressured him into getting him in the side as a bit of a mayo on the contract "sign with us and we will get you into a top 4 side".

That team doesn't need Galvin right now.

I found it particularly amusing they boo'd the shit out of Ezra when they were up 18-0, 3 try assists later and they were booing their own team.

Plenty of teams make mid-season signings with the hope they integrate into their new environment during the year so they can hit the ground running the next season.... doing that with your spine while coming first is certainly a ballsy move
