Confirmed: Matterson released from Wests Tigers.

I'll just leave this here..

McQueen is the ultimate winner. Rather than retire, he collects 400 K a year to play reggies.......

Sadly, we are the losers.

Posted full article in the Q&A topic but found this worth mentioning here.

Matterson’s shock request for a release has not progressed. The backrower was on the cusp of playing Origin but his push to leave lost him plenty of support amongst the Tigers players

There is one sentence in there that is quite laughable :

"An RLPA source said they had been contacted by concerned Tigers players prior to the start of the season."

So according to this players were complaining about workloads and Madge before a ball was kicked. LOL. Is this the source that Weedler was quoting.

Interesting that a usually reliable poster on the Sharks' forum advises that Matterson is singing to the Titans. Could be a great outcome to get Brimson in return,

I posted that weeks ago.

Matterson and the new Titans coach have the same manager.

Matterson was nominated as a Dally M Backrower of the year. Maguire can't be that bad if he's taken him from a bench forward, to a nominee as one of the best in his position in the comp.

Could be good for us as we may have players queuing out the front door of the Club wanting to play under Maguire and win Dally M position of the year award.

@Geo This is GOLD... It also says to me the other players are over him and happy to see him leave... Clearly not a team fav now.. As a team mate you would not post that unless he is on the outer.. I just hope this is over soon and we come out winners..

I don’t get it?

Bateman has said he doesn’t want to leave the raiders, he wants to extend his current contract

Of course he does, that’s the only way he gets more cash. The question is what happens if the Raiders aren’t interested in upgrading/extending?

@ElleryHanley There has to be part of McQueen though that wants to move on and secure a multi year deal elsewhere surely. I guess thats if he wishes to continue playing footy. His next contract will be CC level if he plays out the year in reggies.

@pawsandclaws1 The real fact in my eyes is we are the losers. Matterson is a great player, plenty of quality attributes and exactly what this team needed to build around. We essentially start again but there isn't any point looking on the negative side I guess. It is what it is.

My photoshop forensic skills are not that good, someone wanting to make Matterson look bad though.

 

[innsaneink]

How's he look bad though?

Chris McQueen had it up on his instagram,,so I would say him...it was taken down..

[fair dinkum]

Has it been officially announced yet that he has gone?

Matto also followed him from the Eels to Roosters - there is a history between the 2.
