I watched him play and thought he was like Hindmarsh except he also hurt merkins with and without the ball. Gallen was f**king awesome. Yes he was a hog but that happens when a bloke has so much will to win. I'm sure he owes everything to the Canberra Milk, but you can't argue with the results.

He was a great player.

2019 was also the year that Gallen took over from Scott Prince (166 Losses) as the player with the most losses in NRL First Grade history.


G-Train even has the most FG losses in the history of game.

Lets go the G-Train
You mean grand final and Clive Churchill medal winning Scott Prince and

Grand final winning Paul Gallen?

His coaching stats suggest otherwise.....
He could be zero from a thousand and still know the game better than Tigers fans.

But also, Bellamy and Meninga showed the usefulness of coaching at Origin level. They also showed the uselessness of small samples. Daley’s 15 games are meaningless for providing insight. Instead we know he’s a shit coach because he never got an NRL gig.

How many games did Aaron Woods play after Daley was coach?
Zero, which is how many Dally M Prop awards he added to the two he won while Daley was NSW coach. Woods peaked in 2017, along with the mobile Eels pack. 2018 saw the game slow right down and bigger, less mobile forwards started to dominate. That didn’t suit Woods or the Eels forwards and so we bought Paulo and later RCG.

Seriously Pou, you must have never watched a game that Aaron Woods played. One of the least "mobile" props to have played the game. Slow, pillow that backed into defences for a living. The definition of stat padding. At least Gallen had minutes going for him before the peptide crackdown.
