Mentioned parra and titans as the clubs most likely.
Me I would tell parra to stick it, they started this crap
I'm sure he will when he returns from his holiday.
Don't expect him to be with us in the new year. Hopefully Maguire and Hartigan keep denying a release unless it benefits us.
I’d be willing to bet my last dollar that Hooper has little to no idea what he is talking about. As I understand it Matterson is a not happy with his current contract and asked for a upgrade.
The club told him he needed to perform next year and if he did so they were open to upgrading the final year of his contract (2021). The club is operating from a position of strength in this situation, they know it and they have made it clear to him. As you said I would imagine the only way he gets released is if it results in a favourable outcome for the club.
