No I said he wouldn’t have had to go (present perfect tense, not present tense), assuming the hypothetical that they were “going to just pay him out and release him”.
He didn’t have to do anything. He doesn’t for us. Why would it be any different in Melbourne? More likely is that he wants a medical retirement and signing with a new club would jeopardise that.
According to the latest rumour (sourced from a rugby league journo), Matterson did want to go to Melbourne but wanted a second year. That’s more money to not play rugby league than a medical retirement and certainly doesn’t support your claim that he didn’t want to go.
What’s the truth? None of us know. That’s why these are all rumours.
We know what you said.


) might be a punt for another club + Lomax
