matterson was excelling when at the tigers and if i recall he was in the state of origin squad for 2019.He and his manager portrayed the tigers as being at fault and sought a release.
A less than spectacular 2020 for the fellow and now parra want to flick him.
don't think there will be many wests tigers supporters feeling empathy for him.

Freddy knows he's a germ, that's why he won't pick him. He doesn't want characters like that in the origin squad

I dont think the report is suggesting Parra want to flick him, I think they want him to stay. The report is suggesting Mattersons agent is shopping him around.

Same tune, different club. The Roosters were right in moving him on.

Does anyone get the feeling that Jackson Hastings is being looked at as a new halfback?

Would be great depth & put pressure on our halves.

 

[Littlebittipsy]

I reckon they might be looking at a replacement, not depth.

Nathan brown off contract this year..... option?

1 dimensional smaller prop.

We now have a ton better now.

 

[weststigerman]

Wing, Second Row and potentially half (pending first 6 rounds of Brooks and AD) should be the priority IMO. A lock would be good

Jury out on Liddle, but Simpkin is the long term option, just need to bring him along slowly this year.

It's early days, but it feels like we may have solved the fullback problem. Hopefully Laurie gets through the year injury free and plays every game at 1 for us.

I'd be going after:

Wing: Coates, Gagai (most people have turned off him, still a good player at the right price), Tupou, Sivo
Second Row: Fitzgibbon, Chrichton, Su'a
Half: Reynolds, Walker, Hastings

Tupou is overated

Definitely do not want Fitzgibbon as a Second Rower. He's very similar to Garner. Can hit a hole but can't tackle to save himself. The only reason he's made it to the NRL as his Dad is the CEO of the Knights major sponsor

Blore showed him up last year big time. PASS

I hate Brown but he's an origin player whereas Blore has played 5 games in first grade off the bench. There is no comparison.

He is a very good player. Would provide an intimidation factor in the squad week in week out which we don’t have today.

I would be worried about how much more his body could take. He has a fair few injuries and is good fo a suspension. His next contract would be his last big one.

BLORE put it on him and brought him undone
he's just a bully when it going all his way he looks good but when the going gets tough......

Yes and then Blore gave away 2 penalties because Brown played it to the ref. I was super proud of Blore but Brown helped his team in that match up more than Blore helped us.
