Galvin weighing up offers of $750k a season from Parramatta and Bulldogs

Officials from the Eels and Bulldogs held meetings with Lachlan Galvin on Wednesday as the unsettled Wests Tigers playmaker prepares to decide on his future as early as this weekend.

Phil Gould has again proven that he is a lying merkin. I hope now we get him just to spite the prick.

As for being a BA hugger, he's now a Ryles hugger. Funny that.

True dat, the other bloke bags BA sometimes .. especially on new blood and new ideas and being open to other's opinions

I hope he goes to the Dogs this year and the club goes to shit because he has unsettled the playing group...

Chrighton is still friends with Those merkins at the Tigers that he used to play with as well so it couldn't be a good vibe.

could be the manager saying that Dogs are interested to make sure Parra pay what they want.
Gus hadn't spoken to his manager for a few years but apparently they patched things up recently.

If Galvin does sign with the Dogs it makes a bit more sense he just hated playing under Benji and with Luia.

If he signs with us it makes sense he wanted out to go play for the club he followed as a kid...

Why?

Is he getting paid by either club?

 

[Tiger5150]

Now big tino is available in 27 and good mates with ryles and will not stay at the titans , by then big Jim might have a new trolley boy and we might not stuff another one up

Or by then you are paying $2.5M for your halves and cant fit him in the cap,

 

[T.S Quint]

$750k seems rather cheap for a half in high demand.

I hope the dogs get him for $1M per year. Dogs lost 6 in a row coz of his desire to really play for Parra (ala Hayne at tits) then Dogs gets rid of him to us and pays half the freight

I'd pitch to Galvin that the reason we sacked Brad Arthur was because he manipulated things in the jnrs so that Galvin didn't make our HM & SG ball teams and it was against club orders and then leak fake news to the media via Mark O'Neill's many connections that BA is now in very tight with Gus and is likely to be the next dogs coach and as we all know Gus sacks head coaches that are doing well for no reason and appoints coaches that have promising up and coming sons.

Probably need to pitch to his dad

 

[Timana]

Why would we be unlikely before June 30? A stack of players have left before and during the season. We still have spots.

Maybe MoN goes, now Joe left and Guth left and RCG left then we got Dyl W and

$500K + $750K + 800K - 400K = Sorry Guys, we only have $100K left in the cap

 

[Timana]

I get that you’re keen to lay the boot into MoN and the R&R crew whenever possible, but not every comment is an excuse. Sometimes it’s just passing on what’s going around.

Just for the record, I do think we should go after Galvin now. He’s a long-term benefit, no doubt, and if we can land him, great. I was simply sharing what I’d heard about timing and logistics - not waving the white flag for the recruitment team like you always seem to think I am.

I think it was the way you posted it MJC. The we already have a 6. It sounded like it was your opinion rather than it is what you heard around the traps.

Almost seems like bullsh*t...no?

 

[Timana]

"Increasing the appeal of the Bulldogs is Galvin’s relationship with assistant coach Luke Vella, a close friend and Galvin’s former high school teacher."

We have Michael Vella !!! Does that help?

I got a bad feeling about Galvin. Seems to me as a spoiled little dork who has meltdowns if he doesn't get his way. Plus, we don't need him. We need forwards that can intimidate.

 

[Timana]

Guth even threw darts at Moses' pic

Mitchell Moses was similar at a young age.

Some may say he still has the odd meltdown or two when things dont go his way

True....

But Galvin looks like a lesbian

 

[senior]

Galvin is willing to take 750k

he must’ve really hated the tigers, they made an offer of a million dollars a year

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Lomax was a result of BA doing all the work, Moses is more due to his Uncle. Did you know that Farnsworth was offered to the club and we didn’t think we needed to pay what was being asked and politely said no.

How do you know we did need to pay his asking price? If he was offered to the Eels it wasn’t because he wanted to live in Parramatta or was desperate to win premierships. He wanted top dollar, which is why he’s at the Dolphins and not a better club.

Hey circular boy, didn’t you say we would need to pay top dollar and more than the Tigers were offering?
