I used to laugh when he'd run out as the trainer and the senior players would basically turn their backs on him. That goes to show the contempt in which he was held.
Definitely.

I met him once in my life 1998 and he was a bit standoffish to me. All I was doing was talking to Brandy and MG.
I don't have time for him but I will say his brother Phil was always decent to talk to.
I think the hate is more to do with the way he left. Led the revolt against Simmons & then once Simmons was punted he bailed himself. His loss as he missed the premiership in 03. From what I heard he was a prize wanker when he came back to work with Elliott.
I didn't know he had tried to get Bellamy to Penrith. Would have been interesting to see what would have happened if that had gone through.
In case anyone is not aware of this Matt Adamson has been appointed Melbourne Storm's new under 20's coach.

Time has moved some of us on.
I don't see how this is appropriate to a Panthers forum.
It's like us lauding Freddies interception at the 9's or Tim Sheens' Kangaroo coaching prowess just because they are ex-Panthers.
I think both the Adamson boys originally came here from Parramatta.
Maybe you should have posted this in there,unless this thread was started just to do a spot of muck-racking.
There is no muck raking on my part, I merely posted the link because Matt Adamson was a former player and assistant coach here and I thought people who followed this club might be surprised to learn he scored himself another unlikely job.
Yes Matt Adamsom did start his career at Parramatta it lasted only 3 games. He played the bulk of his career of 155 games here if you had bothered to notice. Hardly a Parramatta player or a person Parramatta fans would be interested in.
If you don't like the thread don't read it.
Still chilled from Hawaii? Well said. This discussion is just a little bit on the nasty side.I can't remember the Matt Adamson issues in his time with us on the support staff but I do remember he was a fine player in his day. Time to move on. If he's picked another gig somewhere good luck to him.

We would have sacked him.I didn't know he had tried to get Bellamy to Penrith. Would have been interesting to see what would have happened if that had gone through.
