Canterbury have rubbed salt into the strife-torn Wests Tigers' wounds by signing Lachlan Galvin's younger brother.
Galvin's mid-season move from the Tigers to Canterbury was one of the biggest stories of 2025, having a profound influence on both clubs.
Now in a week where the Tigers have found themselves embroiled in off-field turmoil, Galvin's 19-year-old brother has also made the switch from Concord to Belmore.

A talented, lanky 19-year-old lock or five-eighth, Tom Galvin was a member of the Macarthur Wests Tigers team in the Laurie Daley Cup competition this season.

He also played for the Tigers in the Harold Matts Cup in 2024.
He is set to start his time at Canterbury in the SG Ball or Jersey Flegg - but may have to earn a spot in the trials.
"Tom is a different player to Lachlan - he is much taller than him and more of a runner," a source close to the family told Wide World of Sports.
"But he has ability and the boys will be happy to be playing for the same club again."
