Rumours and Stuff

We did it with Brown for half a decade

How old was Brown when he made his NRL debut?
I am assuming 19 as well and Played 5 NSW cup games. Plus played in the Under 20s comp

He was only 18... he was playing under 20s as a 17year old.

The Mole: Wests Tigers facing 'new nightmare' as young gun chased by rival clubs

The besieged Tigers are facing a new nightmare with several clubs, headed by the Eels showing interest in talented young hooker Tallyn Da Silva.

In the week in which the club lost brilliant playmaker Lachlan Galvin to the Bulldogs, the battle to retain Da Silva is of critical importance.

The problem is that Da Silva knows he has the quality to be a starting NRL hooker - but can't achieve that goal at the Tigers, with veteran Api Koroisau is still playing great football for the club, is the team captain and is currently negotiating a new deal.

Da Silva's manager Mario Tartak confirmed to Wide World of Sports that five rival clubs have expressed interest in the classy hooker.

"Tallyn loves the Tigers - this isn't a Lachlan Galvin-type situation," Tartak emphasised.

"We can't talk to clubs at this stage but five have told me that if Tallyn goes to the marketplace, they are keen.

"It's up to the Tigers to decide what they want to do but if Api stays, chances are Tallyn will have to go."

North Queensland could also use a good dummy-half after losing State of Origin star Reece Robson to the Roosters.

Official now


It’s official, the Bulldogs have signed Lachlan Galvin.
The 19-year-old will join the Kennel, effective immediately, bringing an end to his two-month contract saga with the Wests Tigers.

Galvin will link with Canterbury as soon as Thursday on a deal that will take him through until the end of the 2028 season.


The deal averages out as just over $750,000 per season - and is less than what rival suitor Parramatta were offering.

Up until now, Canterbury have been reluctant to declare Galvin’s signing as a done deal.

That can now be confirmed as official, although the Dogs may hold off from formally announcing the signing until after Wednesday night’s State of Origin opener.

The Eels can feel hard done by.

Few know how extraordinarily close Parramatta went to signing Galvin, with the teenager likely to reveal, in time, that he had decided to join the Eels last Friday, only to change his mind after speaking with his family and one of his closest mentors, Bulldogs assistant coach Luke Vella across last weekend.

Would you want Galvin if he backflips on the dogs ?

That may be tested yet.

 

[Cloeel]

That may be tested yet.

Surely it is locked in by now?

 

[AnonymousLurker]

That may be tested yet.

It’s official tho

but had a Quick Look at tigers forum and stuff they saying is wild , dogs players are off him already would appear end in tears but I think it’s probably embellished

If we can’t get Sandon Smith we should go all out for Jerome Hughes in 2026.

If we can’t get Sandon Smith we should go all out for Jerome Hughes in 2026.

He’s come out and said he doesn’t want to leave Melbourne and play out his career there. The Bears will offer him $1.5m plus if he isn’t signed up by Nov 1

 

[lingard]

I wouldn’t want Galvin now. Too much drama around him.

He's only 19. The dramas will settle down and be left in the past. And Galvin will become the new Brad Fittler. Mark my words, he is something special.

 

[lingard]

We did a few weeks ago for 2 games

How did he go?

 

[Suitman]

Indeed.

 

[TheCrowe]

A 19 year old that blows up his contract because he thinks he should be the number one playmaker.
He obviously thinks he is special.

 

[King-Gutho94]

I think he is a special player.

But this whole saga will live with him and his reputation similar to DCE backflipping on Manly will take a long time to heal.

Talk about a pub test a couple of souths/manly fans i was having a beer with this arvo both want him to fail big time and what his done to the tigers is a disgrace.

And they don't have any emotional attachment in terms of the Bulldogs, Parra or Tigers who have been involved in the past 6 or 7 weeks with the drama.

My tip is that he won’t be as good as what Gould reckons he will be just like Cartwright didn’t end up being the best NRL forward the modern game has seen. Another Gould brainfart.

And the little upstart is no halfback, especially with that pop gun kicking game of his.
