Gus weighs in on the Lachlan Galvin bombshell. He questions the motive behind the decision, the timing, and the role of player managers in today’s game. “It’s untenable,” he says. “It’s not going to last.” With strong words for the Tigers’ reaction and real concern for Galvin’s welfare, Gus doesn’t hold back.
