Was Galad, while wearing the medallion, unaffected by a fireball? I thought the medallion couldn't stop external attacks like that?
The medallion stops direct weaves like this.
What it wouldn't stop are side effects, eg: the weave affecting a storm creates conditions for lightning to appear. Those lightnings aren't affected by the medallion. If a weave of Air throws objects at you, the objects aren't affected by the medallion (even though the weave of Air if it still pushes the object rather than just project it would break touching Mat, likely diminishing the strength of the impact a bit).
Fireballs are just weaves. Mat, Cadsuane are immune to those, like they are to bonds of air, shields in Cadsuane's case etc. All direct weaves.
Did I read that right?

Nope. A fireball is a direct weave. Lanfear describes it as such in WH.

I thought once fire was created, it became real and ceased being a weave
