Rumours and Stuff

I'm sure if we chipped in $200k matterson at $450k becomes a good get for a club , problem is matto would be difficult to shift , we may need to flick a mataele or Hawkins to free up roster spots , no ther club is at 28 spots filled and we have ourselves in a bit of a pickle recruitment wise

outside of the Dirty 3 I wouldn't want to move anyone on.

just tough it out and see what happens.

Yep, horses for courses. Hopgood and Smith offer nothing in attack. The reason they start is to cover Paulo in defence.

Harsh on smith
I think his dummy half work offers a lot in attack , his passing is good can throw it similar to what we had with Reed

Passing is the most basic skill and not a difference maker in the NRL. There is a merkinhair between the best and worst passers. What separates the best from the worst is their run game and ability to make decisions. Plus defence, obviously. Junior reps is full of hookers who would carve up in the NRL, but they will never get the chance due to their defence.

I wouldn't make a call on Walker until about April next year and I wouldn't be paying him 650 a season that's for certain.

I disagree, as soon as the opportunity arises I would sign Walker for 3 more years on $650k.
once the team got use to his style they played better and then when Moses came back and you had Walker playing through the middle like another half and Moses able to be wider we were playing like a top 4 side.
In my mind Walker is now the 2nd most important player outside of Moses for the style of game Ryles wants to play.

 

[Tmars]

100% agree. Walker is playing good now at 13 but do you throw another 3 seasons at him just he played well in a team that was fighting for the spoon..

Yep definitely, because when Moses got back on the field his combination with Walker took them from a team fighting for the spoon to 11th.
Walker playing like a 2nd half frees up Moses.

you can call it Hindsight I call it poor management...

you do realise that he spent most of that 22 year coming off the bench? so he wasn't even a starting forward when he got that deal.

Uh-oh.

 

[Legal Eel]

Probably because you keep putting shit on club management.

He’s talking about you. He’s right.

 

[Legal Eel]

yeah that was after we shat the bed when Rata, Oggy and Ice signed elsewhere...

those 3 played in this years finals series, 2 of them are still involved.

you know on the back of what the club has achieved this year we can admit that they made some shithouse calls 3 years prior to that....it's ok Pou you can do it.

No. He can’t.

 

[eels_fan]

He was a phenomenal player

You are the first person in the history of rugby league to refer to Matterson as phenomenal. He wouldn’t even call himself that and his ego is as big as his biceps….

 

[Poupou Escobar]

No. He can’t.

Keep reading. I answered all his concerns.

In a forum where average performers are considered shithouse, I don't think I deserve to be singled out for hyperbole.

You didn’t admit parra got it wrong - in fact you ridiculed that position with your usual myopic view.

You do.

You dribble shit by responding to anything & everything.

Is that enough hyperbole for you.

As a manager of risk and a successful punter, I know that anybody who describes risk-based decisions in terms of 'right' or 'wrong' is a thickshit, and likely to be found on a rugby league forum pretending they know better than the pros.

On Matto I assume he doesn't like life in the UK.. As there would be teams that would pick him up.
