Lachlan Galvin's #1 Fan said:
Matterson is toxic to playing groups. I can see why he is playing reserves even though Parramatta lack second rowers in first grade. Remember he had a choice of taking a fine or being suspended. Chose the suspension because all he cares about is money. Wouldn't want to take the field with a guy like that.

In saying that, someone should pick him up. He is a good player. Just a bad bloke.

Talented but totally self centred..disliked everywhere...burnt every team one way or another... and now 30
No thanks...exactly what we DONT need for our culture
As Luai says..team first
Mattersons still looking that up in the Thesaurus!!!

Didn't think much of Galvin's game. He threw a nice pass for the winger to score but, apart from that, his runners were well covered. He ran it a bit but with no real impact. His kicking was average and his defence OK but he did play the full 80 and didn't dog it. I wouldn't pick him in the NRL based on that game but, in fairness, even if Parra beat us 100 - 0 today you wouldn't pick one of today's KOE team to step up next week.

How about we stop bitching about what he is doing and concentrate on what we are doing?
The victim mentality is a stinky cologne.

Lol...I don't know who's biching and whos playing a victim card.
We have no option but to deal with him at certain stages...if he wants to shoot his.mouth off to his journo mates he will...hell use anybtrick to get an advantage so saying dont play it out in the media isnt as easy said than done

We can’t control what he does.
We’ve gone to the media as well in this.
We need better decisions from our side and then we can let him hang himself.
 
What a dead game. The magpies had no right to be relatively in that game.
Defence was actually pretty good but had some really bad lapses.
I actually think Galvin had no favours in that team, I actually think he held them back. That duo of Ackland and Falls played great last week and Galvin ripped that to shreds. Galvin struggled in reserve grade as he couldn't draw in the defense which is what he loves to do. He overplayed his hand at times and that short side raid he does is going to be the death of me. He will play again next week for the maggies.
Thought El Zakhem easily best on ground. He is quite the player and really stood out in that team. I think he will be this year Johanssen and he'll get a crack towards the end of the year in first grade. His punch in attack was really needed.
Thought Kit Laulili played well, I might be a bit biased as i'd love him to work out. I think he needs to be developed as an out and out prop rather then a 13.
Geez faatape is going to continue to fall down the depth chart. I think Feledy might jump him after this week. Last week I praised Faatape solely on his effort which I believe he still showed BUT his defensive decision making is woeful. One of the tries in the first half he jammed despite Wests having numbers. I don't understand it.
Falls was solid. Always happy to have a player from the Penrith system at the club. Noah Johanssen provided some much needed punch off the bench after coming in as the concussion replacement.
Heath Mason continues to be one of the best in that Wests team. I think his game doesn't translate to first grade. Possibly a move to the centres on the cards. His feet and comfortability under the high ball is excellent and he was easily the loudest on the field.

I think as a team they didn't play that great, probably not used to having that many cameras on them. Probably lucky they only lost by 12 thought that could've easily gone north of 30. Obviously wasn't expecting much because that Parra team is loaded with talent from Cartwright, Matto and Joash. I think they shouldn't be down in the dumps about defence but woah that attack needs help and Aaron Payne isn't helping.
Go Wests... See you at Lidcombe next week!!
