Galvin shines for NSWCHS

NSWCHS five-eighth Lachlan Galvin is the good news Tigers fans need

It has been a dark week for all Wests Tigers fans, but there is one schoolboy giving them reason to hope at the ASSRL Nationals.

It has been a dark week for Wests Tigers fans, but there is one schoolboy giving them reason to hope.

In the space of a week Tigers fans have had to deal with the fact Luke Brooks is leaving for the Northern Beaches, they are lacking a recognised half for next season and they were pasted 74-0 in a historic thumping at the hands of the Cowboys.

It’s been tough.

But there is one shining light in the form of NSW CHS halfback Lachlan Galvin.

In the space of 60 minutes, the Westfields Sports High talent made it clear the future isn’t all doom at Concord, after masterfully steering NSWCHS to a dominant win over NSWCIS on Saturday.

The 17-year-old Campbelltown product, who was previously part of the Eels junior system, will join the Tigers top 30 squad next season.

I am loving it

“I am loving it (at the Tigers),” Galvin said. “I got there last year and I am loving it.

“I just want to focus on my footy, train hard. I go into the Top 30 next year.

“When I got there I looked up to the NRL boys. Wayne Lambkin was the coach at Westfield and he’s the reserve grade coach there now and he’s really helped me and my footy.”

Galvin wasn’t the only future Tiger to impress for the NSWCHS side, with winger Luke Laulilii scoring an impressive double.

The duo have played together at Westfields Sports High for a number of years, and the playmaker said their combination was sound.

“In the Harold Mathews Cup, he (Laulilii) was fullback and we worked really well together,” Galvin said.

“It’s good to play with him he’s very fast. I just have to find him, he gives me a lot of room and he follows me.”

When asked who Galvin models his game off he said it was Queensland five-eighth Cameron Munster.

The NSW Combined High Schools lethal wing combination of Nikora Williams and Laulilii, with Galvin at the trigger, blew away their NSW Combined Independent Schools rivals in a 24-6.

NSWCIS, who also feature a Tigers-bound playmaker in Alex Conti, will have little time to lick their wounds as they return to action at the ASSRL Nationals on Monday.

After a day off the field, the competition returns in a massive way with the first games for the Combined Affiliated States and ACT boys sides.

NSWCIS will cap off a massive day of action against the ACT, while the CAS side will meet a NSW Combined Catholic Colleges side flying off the back of a big win against Queensland on Saturday.

Monday’s action kicks off at Kayo Stadium in Redcliffe with another three rounds of the fast and flashy Schoolgirls Nationals tournament.
