Rumours and Stuff

I cant really fault the club too much here if Matto showed the form he has shown in the past 6 weeks when playing for a contract in the previous 2 seasons he would have already been locked up.

Matto didn't even make the starting 17 in that 1st semi final against Newcastle last year. His form at the backend last year was underwhelming.

If we offered Matto a low deal would he have accepted it when his value was low at the start of the year. I doubt it.
I agree. I'm OK with this. He has been great the last 6 weeks whilst playing for a contract but apart from that he has been pretty average. It hurts a little bit because we have lost so many forwards but he is replaceable.

Wish we lost N Brown and Matto and kept Ice. That is the f**k up IMO.

No one from outside the top 4 has won a GF, but 6th is a contender according to Poups lol.
If you can make a grand final you can win it. Plenty of teams have made a grand final from outside the top four. Don’t confuse something that hasn’t happened with something that can’t.

The irony here is that we will end up paying someone (or maybe two), the same amount Papali'i and Matterson left for who, who will be an inferior player. We've already likely already done the same with Hodgson for Mahoney.

Imo, Hodgson is a better player, and I rate Mahoney.

Hodgson's issues are his age, and his bad knees.

If he stays on the field, he is a better player than Mahoney.
