Lachlan Galvin showcased his elite fitness in Vegas, proving he's among the NRL's fittest players.
Teammate Matt Burton believes their partnership as halves will only improve.
After joining Canterbury mid-season in 2025, Galvin focused on developing chemistry with Burton during the pre-season.
In their opening match, they effectively used their size and agility to challenge the Dragons' defense in a close 15-14 defeat.
Although captain Stephen Crichton received praise for his golden point field goal, Galvin made significant contributions.
He carried the ball 22 times at halfback, accumulating 190 meters, along with a try assist and two line-break assists.
In defense, he was busy, making 35 tackles as the Dragons targeted him.
Burtom also shone with 14 kicks, including five bombs aimed at Dragons fullback Clint Gutherson.
He ran the ball 15 times for 156 meters and recorded four tackle breaks.
Galvin's high fitness levels and impressive football IQ have left teammates astonished during training.
