In a blockbuster development shaking up the NRL landscape, Canterbury Bulldogs captain Stephen Crichton has broken his silence on the club’s pursuit of Wests Tigers young gun Lachlan Galvin. Amid swirling speculation over the 18-year-old sensation’s future, Crichton has thrown his full support behind the potential signing, calling Galvin “a generational talent” and a “perfect fit for the club’s future.”
Speaking after training, Crichton emphasized the importance of building a strong spine, hinting that Galvin’s playmaking spark could be the missing link to elevate the Bulldogs into premiership contention. “He’s young, confident, and fearless. That’s exactly what we need,” Crichton said. “If the club can land him, I’ll back it 100%.”
Galvin’s rapid rise at the Tigers has caught the attention of several clubs, but the Bulldogs are reportedly leading the chase with a long-term vision centered on youth and leadership. Crichton’s public endorsement adds weight to the club’s interest and may help sway the young star’s decision.
With the Bulldogs eyeing a new era under coach Cameron Ciraldo, Galvin’s arrival could mark a pivotal moment. As Crichton put it, “He’s the kind of player you build a team around.”
