Broncos deadset won’t get a try unless it’s an interception

I just don’t get what the dogs were thinking with Galvin. They were the best team in the comp and now they’re throwing their whole roster into turmoil to accomodate a teenager who hasn’t proven shit and straight up struggling to play at NRL level.

Maybe he’ll be a future star but this situation just ain’t it.

Galvin shouldn't even be playing 1st grade just yet. His minor ability last year where he notched up a couple good wins gave him a false sense of confidence thinking he's the man when in reality he's just not ready yet

Honestly, if he was developed at a better club I bet he's played less than 5 NRL games at this stage of his career

He still plays like it's schoolboy footy

He's everywhere but way too rushed when he gets the ball..needs a proper stint in reserve grade to dominate there for a bit

Dogs were not going to win shit with Sexton and Burton as their halves anyway. The distant chance of Galvin somehow fitting in and coming good is still their best chance to do something come finals.

He could have asked the four time premiership winning half about biding your time in the lower grades.

He was 100% intimidated by Luai. Apparently they barely spoke to each other

Luai could see his ego right through him. And now he seems to be getting his way at the Dogs already after being there for 5 mins ... the over hype for the kid is unbelievable you'd think he's be putting on 4+ try assists a game

Panther fans in this thread discovering the Warriors and Dogs aren't as big as scalps as they thought.

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
Reality check. Galvin will never be an immortal. And people need to stop saying it. If you see a Beetson, Lewis, Meninga or Johns in Galvin (can't comment on the rest because I never saw them play) then you are watching a different sport than I am.

He completely lacks the fundamentals of the game. Can't tackle for shit, scared of contact and cannot read the play in defence. He's a highlight reel player. I don't know who best to compare him to, because players like him are incredibly forgettable. Worth noting, I am not a Tigers fan or Gus hater.

Galvin has more errors, for less returns than Strange at the same age (last season). Plus Strange is a beast in defence + was pulling wins out of the fire on his own in his rookie year.

One just plays in Sydney.
