Lachlan Galvin Saga…
Here is an update from behind the scenes for our footy loving folk at Ned Ryerson.
Lachie Galvin is not the problem per se. His father is. It is quite well known - and has been for a long time- in junior league circles...
He is only just into the rugby league system now isn’t he ? There is absolutely no rush with him, DCE finished the 20s, had a year in reserve grade, then got his debut. Katoa considered elite and coming through the best system as a youngster hasn’t just slotted into NRL and found it easy, he is...
Can’t pin any of the communication on DCE, he is completely irrelevant in how Humprhies was treated
They told him going forward he was going to be a hooker only, he spent the whole off season training there, then with no explanation at all round one they name him to play halfback in NSW Cup...
Listening to that sinks confidence in Seibold and management even lower
Not the fact he left, but the messages they sent him were continuously changed on the run
He has never been a 9, can’t believe we have gone 2 months persisting with it when we have genuine 9s in the squad. He can be useful in the middle of the park doing dirty work and a link man though and I thought he did that ok in the 2nd half
Surprise surprise as soon as we started trying to...
Absolutely dire coach
**** selections, and **** game plans week after week after week
For 117 years, the key part of winning rugby league games has been winning the middle of the field. This idiot thinks we don’t need to use them, and every week we pass from one side of the field to the...
I never come into these threads, but knowing he is a whipping boy thought I’d make an appearance. He is running very good, tough lines and he is getting good ball, and it is also freeing up Koula a bit with the room he is providing
Not related to his views on DCE, but have a listen to his podcast with Matty and Cooper Johns last week, one of the best I’ve heard
Knew it was going to be good when within the first few mins they were talking about how he put Terry Hill in hospital with 3rd degree burns to his balls
You would, but you also in his position know there are 34 positions available in the NRL for starting halves, and there are probably only a dozen in the upper tier, of which he is one, so there is never going to be any issue getting a deal if wanted as there are many desperate coaches and CEOs...
Listening to Six Tackles with Gus
He confirmed that there were phone calls last year offering DCE up for 2025. He didn’t believe them but received them
He was trying to get out of the Warriors late last year, apparently his Mrs left him and returned to Australia and if they had kids they’d have gone with her
It goes both ways, the people running the club you’d like to love the club the as well, and there have been many examples over the years that can put that into questions
You’d only find a handful of people who love the club and put more into it on the park than Geoff Toovey. Penn has no...
He didn’t clarify, but I took it as they were making it clear that the end of his current contract would be the end of his tenure, but it would be extremely odd to be ringing other clubs to tell them that, potentially looking for swap deals ?
Don’t think I’d agree with that, Tedesco/Walker/DCE/Robson is instantly up among the best spines, Collins, Lenui, Crichton and Radley already well established top line forwards and plenty of young talent in the pack as well. Probably just lacking in the centre/wing department
