hosted by Bill Woods. The show was a sports program that at aired on 7mate. Since 2018, he has appeared on 100% Footy alongside James Bracey and Phil Gould - a rugby league show that airs on Monday nights on Channel Nine. Gallen has appeared sometimes on Sports Sunday and Nine's Rugby League Coverage. Before the start of the 2020 State of Origin series, Daily Telegraph journalist Dean Ritchie described the Queensland team as the worst Maroons side in origin history. Before Game 3, Gallen doubled down on this statement saying "I would much rather have played against this side than any of the teams I ever played (against). In the past 15-20 years, I'd probably say this is the worst team. There you go, let's fire them up even more". Queensland would go on to win Game 3 and shock New South Wales to win the series. In the aftermath of the New South Wales loss, Gallen defended his comments saying that they were fair and justified. He went on to say "There was one person to come from Queensland and stick up for the current side and that was their coach from Wayne Bennett, There wasn't a single other person, these staunch Queenslanders come from nowhere. No one said a word after my comments on Monday or after the New South Wales journalist's comments from a couple of weeks ago. All of sudden, in hindsight and they've won the series, they come from everywhere. "I didn't know I was so popular. I had 5000 messages today on social media".
