"I wasn't really getting game time, and they kind of told (that there is) probably not going to be a spot here for ya in the long-term". Galvin would later join the Wests Tigers junior set up for a $5000 transfer fee. Galvin would then play for Western Suburbs. In 2022, he was part of the Western Suburbs team which won the Harold Matthews competition that season. [4] [5]
