Hard to feel sorry for the bloke when he goes on national tv a few weeks ago denies any interest in a player then signs him a few short weeks later. Media and fans are absolutely crushing his credibility and it's just a bad look for the game when a player takes 500k less to join the club that Gus is the head of. Pressure will firmly be on the bulldogs this season as anything less then a title will lead to a backlash

Unless they breach a law they won't give a hoot.
Has anyone anywhere even remotely suggested that a law has been broken? If so...which one?
It's called integrity Captain If you encourage lack of integrity it reflects on your character as well You'd never be my captain Just a lying blowhard

Meanwhile in Melbourne business as usual they'll load up with another worker and continue to build.
This is how it's done. Winners don't get obsessed with what their competition are doing. They just get on with the long game of winning.
I was surprised how many thought Galvin would become an Eel.
He's coached by one of the best 5/8s ever has a 4 time premiership winner as a partner yet he wanted to leave to 'develop' his game?
I always thought LG would go to a team where he can be the chief playmates. Get over it and be glad we missed out on him and his ego
This is a serious issue—especially given the extent of betting involvement in the game. If the NRL wants to maintain any credibility or uphold proper governance, they must hold Phil Gould accountable and require him to relinquish one of his roles.
The concern isn’t just about the alleged grooming and being wax lyrical . As someone reminded me, Gould made comments on 100% Footy—either a few weeks ago or when this story first broke—suggesting the situation was untenable and that the Galvin should be let go. That’s the General Manager of a rival club using his media platform to exert pressure on the Tigers for his own club’s gain.
Channel Nine also has questions to answer. As a media organisation, they should be deeply concerned that one of their highest-profile figures is openly misleading the public.
What pressure is that he's just putting an opinion out there.
Tigers don't have to actually listen and I'm pretty sure there were plenty of media plaudits out there saying pretty much the same.
Media misleading the public nooooo say it isn't so,
