GALVIN SHOCKS EELS

Lachlan Galvin’s decision to join Canterbury has gone down like a lead balloon with Sydney rivals the Eels.

Sport Confidential can reveal Parramatta bosses were supremely confident of securing Galvin and believed they had their man before being ambushed by the Bulldogs.


It is understood the Eels had tabled a multi-year, $1 million-a-season deal for Galvin to partner Mitchell Moses at the Parramatta scrumbase next year.

But the Wests Tigers young gun shocked the Eels by taking less to go to the Bulldogs.

Galvin’s management have been criticised for allegedly brainwashing the teenager but the 19-year-old made the call to reject Parramatta of his own volition.

  • I'm glad we didn't sign him, especially for that money

  • Reported by a few other outlets that we would not budge above 850

  • The people wishing this to be just talk, have obviously forgotten we have form in this area.  It does sound nice to optimistic that we stood firm at 800k , history says 1mil is more the case 

     

    The other case may be our own club leaked the million sum to let the fans know they had a serious crack, just like the leaked Wayne Bennett thing.,

    • Good positive response Wiz, don't let those bastards get away with anything....I'm glad you always look on the brightside!

      Just a matter of interest can you define the "form", so they fcuked up with Bennett, just about everything being fcuked up is working in our favour......Bennett included. 

      PS He was never coming to Parra...but you knew that remember!

    • Well said Wiz, finally a measured post.

      We have  too many drama queens on this site..

  • I understand that photos of Galvin training at Belmore today in Bulldogs gear were posted on X (Twitter) while he is still contracted to Wests Tigers. Maybe Super can confirm that this is a fairly large breach that can be a fine of half your years salary plus a $250 000.00 fine for the Dogs?

    • Nrl investigating it now lol, geeze they've handled this poorly 

  • what a load of rubbish ...honestly what dopes post and throws out this tripe one mill a season year right Lurker you dope

  • We still going on about him
