I don't hate Madge. Just think he's a pretty average club coach. Last couple of years at Souths and 4 years with us is proof in the pudding. But it was pretty common knowledge he wouldn't accept he'd just been poor at Souths and lost his job, he told all and sundry it was Siebolds fault back stabbing him, among having shots about Burgess being close to Rusty.

My read on the Matamua comment was nothing more than Richo remembering one of the young guys' name.
Birds has come out and said he wants lock. Agree with others, the days of playing a 3rd middle at lock is gone.
The good teams (ie Penrith) have a gun link player playing 13 and that's what we need.
Def middle heavy in our roster and unless we can manufacture some edge forwards (Adam D?), i wouldn't be surprised if we tap one of our middles on the shoulder.
Fair chance he starts at South's too over Dodd
No offence supercoach but talk like this infuriates me.It should be part of training, kicking from all angles for all. Why most of them don't learn coming thru the grades to master something that is very simple mathematics is beyond belief, an old guy when i played ,toed it barefoot from 1/2 way all angles,nailed it every time,practice practice practice,excuse me i just wasted my sook for the day

Heamasi Makasini is a good goalkicker!
Rofl as if Madge is making retention and roster decisions for a starting rotation player at his club to spite us.

Did Madge [This word has been automatically removed] your wife? Run over your dog? Because they’re the only reasons that would make sense as to why you level this kind of BS at him.
The man has coached and won at every level (NRL, Super League, Origin, NZ). The only place he failed was here after he was handed a team with no salary cap, little autotomy over recruitment, a front office that frequently sabotaged recruitment efforts and ultimately, a director of football white anting him. How many coaches would be able to overcome that?
But I know you love to ignore all those things because it doesn’t fit the BS narrative in your head. So keep on spreading the lies ( yes, lies because I know quite a few players who have played under him, including Souths and Tigers players, and while some did criticise his hardstyle coaching, none of them questioned his character)

Don’t bother, he has an irrational hate boner for Madge.
No amount of logic will get through to him.

A mistake? more like multiple... a game!
His mistakes are also very stupid and basic... He never seems to learn from them which is the biggest issue. He is always banging his head and carrying on after each one as well.
Because we've been so bad for so many years, i feel as though many of our fans try to convince themselves that Seyfarth is good because he 'puts in the effort' or has one good game in every 5. Just enough to convince everyone hes turned a corner.
In reality, he's a good depth player and a 6.5/10 who is capable of a 8/10 performance 3-4 times a year. Unfortunately we are used to most of our players being a 4/10, especially the last 3 seasons.

Merlot you remind me of my wife she's angry all the time too.Probably because she has to live with me.😁
I wont pull words from your wife's mouth ,but you just dont understand me.lol,im chilled, really how hard can putting a ball between two sticks be ,yet it seems to be a lack of talent amongst professional league players.
Cant agree more. The team that starts playing a lock that is good defensibly but can also play like an alternate 5/8 ( like the Jim Dymocks from years ago) will become a force to be reckoned with.

Good to hear the club intends to re-sign Sione Fainu, once a spot becomes available. He is on a T&T until then.
When Matamua was coming through the grades and making a name for himself, I wouldn’t say he was fast for a forward, but he was agile enough to be a running threat and this along with his ball playing ability is what made him a player with so much potential.
I recall he was told he was small for a forward and had to put on size, I think that’s been his detriment as putting on size has taken away his speed and agility and meant he has become no attacking threat when running the ball.
Therefore it’s great to hear he’s looking very fit as that’s the best chance of him regaining his running threat and becoming the player he’s always promised to be.

Feels weird that we are capitalising on another club’s ineptitude for a change
