WATCH: Galvin trains with Bulldogs before official release
SEN • May 30th, 2025 3:02 pm
His move to Canterbury might not be official but Lachie Galvin has been filmed training with the Bulldogs.
With his transfer from the Wests Tigers expected to be confirmed later today, the teen was filmed working with coach Cameron Ciraldo by an eagle-eyed fan.
It’s been a chaotic six weeks for both the Tigers and Galvin since he announced he would not be extending his current contract with the club.

Despite being adamant he would see out the deal until the end of 2026, things soon turned ugly with rumours of a fallout with senior players and the coach as well as bullying.
The saga around Galvin’s decision to move away from the club as reignited the calls for an established NRL trade period with many fearing the relentless speculation and movement of players has a negative impact on peers and clubs.
Kieran Foran is the latest big name to add his voice to calls for more structure.
“I do think there should be a formal window,” he told Corey Parker and Ian Healy on SENQ Breakfast.
“It has the potential to derail clubs' seasons, it could have been handled better in my honest opinion.
"The kid is young and he can continue to learn, he will be guided by those around him but I don’t like the fact a club can work very hard all preseason and make great improvements early on like the Tigers but then something like this can happen to unsettle players and derail a season.
“We need to be on top of that and put some guidelines around the process.”
The majority of the Dogs have a weekend off given the bye round after Origin but Galvin was locked in and focused.
