Willie Mataka gone

[redemption]

Visa got rejected.

Regardless of his visa - he is not back training with us in lieu of the Huddersfield deal - so he remains gone unless Balmain or Wests step in!!

i hope wests sign him

i hope wests sign him

They'd be mad if they didn't!

He is one of your juniors - he is genuinely good for team morale & he is still quite young!!

Balmain-RE players & staff love the bloke!!

Last time I checked he was going to France. Must have fallen through.

As crouching already mentioned, his visa fell through.

To my knowledge he has been signed by the Roosters, started training with them on the weekend.

He is also playing in their first trial.

Don't you need a visa to get into Bondi?

close the door on your way out please!

Dayum, I rate Mataka… Hope this talk of signing with Easts isn't the case.
He's still young & IMO he's got the talent & potential to be great, would love to see him be a part of our future pack.

Mate, he's gone to the chooks for an opportunity, just the way it is sometimes unfortunately.

Playing in the centres for them in their trial this week. Team appeared to be a mix of NRL players and NSW Cup players.

Well said. Who would you drop from our current squad for him?

Chur brah, such a shame. I hate the roosters, I expect big things from Mataka but it's unfortunate we had to let him go but fair enough, we'll see how big of an opportunity he gets.

Shame, I really rated him.. thought he deserved more chances. Interesting that Rhys Pritchard and Issac Lui are joining him there.

We would need to go down the path of Souffs and their creative accounting department. If we do, we could have 50 players on our books and everyone would be happy with the talent we have retained

He could reach the heights of Nick Kouparitsis…
