Bulldogs coach Cameron Ciraldo has expressed high praise for new recruit Lachlan Galvin, particularly highlighting his adaptability for off-the-bench play.
As the team gears up for a crucial match against the Panthers, Ciraldo illustrated his strategic approach toward integrating Galvin into the game plan.
Galvin's recent performances include scoring a try upon his club debut against the Eels and starting at five-eighth against Souths during Matt Burton's State of Origin absence.
Ciraldo faces the challenge of accommodating Galvin alongside other players, including Toby Sexton, Reed Mahoney, and Bailey Hayward, without compromising the team's recent success that has placed them at the top of the table.
He described his tactical flexibility in deploying Galvin, stating, "I've probably got plan A, plan B and plan C again," signifying multiple strategies for his utilization.
Ciraldo noted Galvin's role as back-up for the team's backs but recognized that his training in various positions allows for opportunities in different areas on the field.
He commended Galvin's training efforts, saying, "He's been training really well since he got here, and every opportunity he's taken," showcasing Galvin's readiness to step up and contribute as needed.
