    He is an absolute legend. No-one I would rather have wearing the number 13 for Cronulla tbh.

    With quotes like (after the St George game) "There is nothing more that I hate than losing, especially to those **** wits"

    And when people say this about him; "The difference with Gallen is that he cares - he really, really cares," Gambin says.

    "I've never seen a player get so emotional.

    "Before our game against the Roosters at home last year he was almost in tears of passion as he fired the boys up over a slur from David Shillington that the Sharks pack was soft.

    "It personally offended him. He and the team are one."

    Rugby League needs more of these people that absoloutly heart and sole is devoted to the team, he may give away penalties and all that, but all that aside he is great for Rugby League and what it used to be about


    So Paul Gallen.... Appreciate

    So you wouldn't prefer Johnathon Thurston, Cam Smith or Darren Lockyer running out in the number 13 jumper and playing their natural position?

    Needs to step up for NSW before I can appreciate.

    The randomness @ the David Hicks quote is lol worthy.

    LOL @ Marshall being tough.

    He still runs like a fag, he doesn't even step anymore.

    Respect +++++ for him after that. I wish the Broncos had a forward who packed that kind of attitude (by all reports Sweeney does but he isn't playing atm).

    I personally don't like Gallen, but he's one hell of a personality/character.

    Yeah, a lot of respect for him after reading that article. Always liked him though. Hope he pumps up the Blues this year.

    I'd prefer Bird in the 13, itbt. Only just after reading that though.

    Yeah I'd love a guy like him in my team TBH. My perception of him has changed somewhat.

    Nah sorry just cause he says some shit - that is not going to change my view on him as a player or a person.

    I thought he was third this season out of all the locks with about 120.

    Can't remember who was first but.
