Too bad for Matto. These players have minders, advisors and managers. He's dug himself a hole. I'm not saying he's right or wrong. What I'm saying is that he'll now have to sit out future games based on principle and his decision to be a trail blazer when it comes to fines and suspension issues. After all, he would stupid if he copped a fine in the future over his decision to sit games out now.
Yep at the end of the day it was the most brain dead self centred decision I can remember.

He’s a f**king disgrace, selfish and a massive tight arse. I’d be asking him if the Dolphins would still take him. I’d gladly pay for his flight. Can’t cop him.
I take your point. But, he's on our payroll for quite some time. He's either going to become some ground breaker for other players in the NRL system or he's going to be laughed out of town. My original opinion still stands, he's going to front the judiciary again at some time in the future - pay up won't be an option.

Maybe taking the games instead of the fine is Matterson's version of "quiet quitting"?

A professional footballer who... doesn't seem to care about choosing to play football games.

Matto is a cat and high maintenance. You only have to speak to a few people close to the inner sanctum to hear what a whinger he is.

It was only 12 months ago he was left out of the semi final team that played Newcastle when he was fit and available.

It was a desperate decision to re-sign him 650k a season and he repays the club by serving a 3 match ban instead of a 4k fine.

But weren't you supporting the decision at the time like you normally do??? Now it's brain dead and self centred 🤓
You think that I supported a marquee player sitting out three matches rather than paying a fine ? You’re a sandwich short of a picnic.

Sammiches short of a picnic indeed. There are plenty of posts in that thread where you were only waited for his side of the story .

Yeah those voices in your head are not facts. Link me where I said that taking 3 weeks suspension vs $$$ was the right thing to do.

I was hoping that he was a reasonable motive behind the decision (like getting off season surgery and was going to miss the start anyway) but nope.

He was just cranky and at the end of the day showed us all that he’s got less sandwiches than you.
