Rumours and Stuff

pork pies ?

Bloody Poms, cold pies and warm beer. We should invade and civilize them.

 

[lingard]

So good.

I watched it a few weeks ago.

What movie is it?

 

[emjaycee]

Both named in nsw cup this weekend.

Yeah, but Ryles said in last week's presser that Matto wouldn't play while he has his injury, so I expect him to pull out again.

There's a reason why pork pies are served cold.

Or they just have niggling injuries perhaps.

I'm led to believe from a very reliable source Matto Is being troubled by disc issues..

My little birds tell me its related to carrying his wallet around

Could be a lack of a spine

I say this as someone with no inside knowledge whatsoever - but I'd be surprised if Matto played again.

His concussion history is a serious concern.

 

[Eelementary]

Yet you probably eat a meat pie with a knife and fork.

Don't sit here, and pretend, that you don't eat your Snickers without a knife, and fork, like the rest of us...

So he should improve once Moses returns?

This current injury is not concussion related..

The current listed injury is not concussion-related.

Would it be that implausible to learn that what the public is being told about a player's unavailability, is not the true reflection of what is going on, but is being shared in that way to provide some sort of justification for that player being unavailable?

As I said, I have no inside knowledge.

But looking at Matterson's playing record since Kaufusi slammed his head to the ground, there seems to be a a pattern there.

People with good inside knowledge are saying it has nothing to do with concussion.

Well, there you go.

I still don't think he will finish out the season.

Me either, but not due to concussions.

Two things seem to be hampering Matterson's ability to stay on the field for extended periods over the last 2 years.

One is some ongoing concerns over repeated concussions and his ability to recover sufficiently. My mail was that despite seemingly passing the necessary protocols, his return last year was delayed by some constant niggling headaches that he was experiencing.

The other is a problem he suffered with some discs in his back that keep flaring up and make playing FG not a realistic likelihood in the short-term.

Either of these could prematurely end his season/career.

Soft, who cares about a potential long term brain injury or ability to walk.....can't believe some players....
