With fellow second-rower Tony Puletua, Galuvao was known as one of the "Hair Bears" and was rated one of the best second-rowers in the world in 2003.[2] Galuvao joined the Rabbitohs from 2006 on a three-year deal.[2] Galuvao was released in September 2007 after a campaign to encourage him to retire, reportedly being told by Souths to swap "the paddock for the pulpit".[3] by the Rabbitohs to join the Parramatta Eels in the 2008 off season.[4] Galuvao signed a 2 year contract with Parramatta, keeping him with the Eels through the 2009 season.
