Can we name a urinal after Ryan Matterson? :nauseated_face:

It would be a fitting tribute that recognises the regard in which Ryan is held in the hearts, minds and bladders of Wests Tigers supporters everywhere.


Inside the Glen Morrison toilets perhaps

Perfect. Next to the Mitchell Moses Bog Box.

what about the Aaron Woods Garbage bin?

Wests Tigers Forum Player of the Year Urinal..?

I think ‘Treasonous Player of the Year Urinal’ - we seem to have more than our fair share.

And we can also name another toilet block after Ivan Cleary while we’re at it.

That’s a good idea rename the urinals at Leichhardt one wing the Ivan Cleary urinals second wing the Ryan matterson urinals.

So Matterson produced a doctors certificate for not attending training this week, I understand now he has taken off to the Greek islands on holidays

Better be careful, $350k does not go a long way in Greece. So it is Naxos, Paros, Skiathos, Rhodes, Crete or Mykonos?

Contained within:
:nauseated_face: The Ryan Matterson Trough (with urinal cakes that smell like Braith Anasta)
:nauseated_face: The Mitchell Moses Bog Box
:nauseated_face: The Arron Woods Garbage Bin

I have a serious question...is Arrow really as good as everyone is making out? I haven’t seen him play all that much, but he’s been talked up on here and in the media as if he’s the next big thing. From the little I have seen him play, he’s not really that much better than Matterson anyway.

Great player. Chronic back injury at his age is not good though
 
I don't get the anger at Matterson

If I think I worth more than I am being paid or can get better conditions at another work place (whether I'm under contract or not ) I can approach my employer to try and get a better deal

If your smart you'll employ tactics to make them assume it's real whatever the threat may be

If your employer won't then meet your reasonable demands then you have the RIGHT (rightly or wrongly) to play your cards and see how they fall

I'm literally doing it at the moment at my job

Does it make me evil ......no ...just playing the game ...they get their fair slice of my hindquarters extra every week .....I realize I'm worth more ....they know they can't lose me without the business going backwards in some way

but the player himself signed the contract saying I agree that I'm this much and the club agreed. It's not the club's problem that he undervalued himself just as it's not the player's problem if he is overvalued and paid overs. He certainly wouldn't complain if the club did that.
 
@happy_tiger Interesting. A couple of questions if I Could;
a) are you employed on a contract
b) have you withdrawn your labour
c) are you or your representatives discussing opportunities with other employers.
Unless the answer to these questions is yes, your circumstances are very different.

Only problem is employer did entertain and want to discuss increase and extension, but were shut down immediately. I’m betting your not sulking using Dr Certificates to not turn up anymore either.
 
@Russell definitely getting shafted if it's only Brimson, he's not bad but the fact that the dude struggles to get a decent haircut makes me wonder.

essentially he's gone on strike and managed to scab a doctors certificate.....
 
Betcha Chris Lawrence is watching all this with interest
Some bloke who’s been at the club 5 minutes and carrying on like a football mercenary would irritate Chris a bit
If by chance they are both at the club next year I don’t think they would be good roomies on away trips

The same Chris Lawrence that did an interview with weidler a few days before our biggest game in 3 years whinging about how his offer for next year wasn’t enough?

Well if you want to class a contract and salary as the same YES to all 3

I haven't withdrawn my labour .....but said I will drop it to the next lowest management's level

Did Matterson sign expecting to be training after the club was knocked out of finals contention ??

Ben Ikin was right , this doesn't happen at bigger club's because bigger club's don't sack coaches every time their contract expires or even before it expires

They don't have coaches leave mid contract .....

Again many's anger is being pointed in the wrong direction ......the club has created this problem by letting Cleary go ......I bet Matterson is happy if Cleary was still here

And as I have said many times if we had asked Cleary the right questions in the interview process we would have known that Father wanted to coach son and son didn't want to come to the Tigers
