Disappointed he ain’t committing but let’s make the most of it & trade for a top notch backrower or prop. Roosters can have him for Crichton or Spence.
plenty of moving pieces, Brooks has been offered to St George possibly for 2026, if St George are interested that could open up Galvin to manly potentially soon if Isaac does his usual trick
One positive is that it gives the club room to continue to improve the roster and retain the best talent rather than have two $1m + halves. Latu will have a much more normal contract development ie if he gets more reps and shows his improvement this year he will get an upgrade and extension but still well below $1m. We also have good leverage to get a club to release a player we need if they want Galvin for 26 ie a Spencer Leniu from the roosters. I can see this even happening this year if Galvin is going to a team that is out of contention this year and they are happy to get their hands on Galvin early ie you could see brown to knights, Galvin to eels this year. There is no real way back once you publicly shame the coach and degrade his ability. How do you even turn up to training after that? How do you play in the opposed squad when the head coach is running everything? It’s such a weird situation that Wests Tigers could only engineer.

Where has Galvin done that? I haven't seen it anywhere. Or are you relying on comments from supposed "journos"?

the releases his management request December 2023, then the supposed dummy spit in the change room at Wollongong and Isaac Moses allegedly saying dont bother with an offer galvin is not happy with direction of club and coaching
cant see him being here for 2026

He hasn't, but his representative has briefed the media (both News and Fairfax) that coaching is the major issue in this decision.
If Galvin isn't happy with that being reported all over the RL world on his behalf, then he needs to find new representation.
It’s clearly Moses using maximum pressure to get Galvin out of the club asap, including this year if he can manage it. Benji is a rookie coach and Moses has identified that attacking Benji as the problem rather than Moses wanting to stack a club of his coach clients is the best way to get what he wants. The manager is your employee, it’s no excuse to say that you have nothing to do with the dirty tricks, if I acted in an unprofessional at work my employer may have its reputation ruined. Lachie and his family hired Moses knowing full well who he was and how he operated. Galvin will be the most hated player in the league by tigers fans for the next 15 years. I will boo him if he runs out in our colours next weekend and I hope the rest of the stadium boos him. We are on the up this season and to borrow a phrase if you are not on the bus then you can get lost. I don’t care about the bloke, all decisions by the club have to be in order to maximise the success of the club. We honestly should just let him sit out until 2027 as it would be better for us if he is playing poorly when he arrives at our competitor. Pay him his $300k and try and sabotage him for his next club.
Him sitting out won’t help us. We could play him in Cup until a swap which suits both parties comes along. Other clubs will come to us wanting to swap players as the season moves on. We can be patient and wait for the right one.It’s clearly Moses using maximum pressure to get Galvin out of the club asap, including this year if he can manage it.

There is no way a 19 year old is bagging a coach, it's the adults in the room, who don't really know anything about the game. Has any one advising Galvin played NRL? Don't give us this bullshit that it's the coach, maybe it's the assistant coaches, but it's not the coach. Benji is doing the exact same role that Wayne Bennet has been doing for decades; man management (as Tallis identified tonight on 360). We need to to a Politis, wipe any players from the Moses stable, I don't care how good they are. Never have anything to do with that c&*t ever again.
Just another way the Tigers season can be derailed.... a couple of years ago, we showed form, then they get rid of Joffa.... just shithouse.
Jesus, even NRL360 has backed the Tigers position. They slayed Galvin and his manager.

Bula is a Moses client
I feel Richo and Barry are experienced enough to handle Moses & the Galvin's and then some.
Lachlan has made his decision; history will judge his career.
In the remaining time he is simply a commodity to be exploited, much as he has treated the WT.
If we need him to play, play him to death. If he needs to warm the 18th man truck seat chair, then warm it.
If he can fetch a haul in trade (even to a club who won't sign him long term) then be ruthless,
whatever most benefits the WT is what is to be done.
Lachlan who? next.
Will be very interesting to see what happens from this point on. I recall reading something about Mitchell Moses talking with Lachie. Could Brown to Knights, Galvin to Eels & Pearce-Paul to Tigers be a possibility at some point? Probably not but just never know.
