As has been said before, those stats are largely useless.
How Nofoaluma is the 2nd fastest player in the NRL is beyond belief…
It explains how he breaks as many tackles, maybe he hits the line fast and people can’t adjust quick enough
Good luck to the kid and hope he lives up to his potential as he has bucket loads of it.
Unless we have someone coming in, looks like Mbye, Talau and Momo next year.
Hope we spend the cash on a quality forward. JWH would be awesome.

I don’t get it. If a player feels he must retire because he can no longer fulfil his playing commitments and this is backed up by medical evidence of his long term injury - how can the NRL rule otherwise. The Club should be entitled to deduct him from the cap total - it seems pretty simple to me.
Issue is money.
If Mats retires he forfeits the $$ owed to him, if he is medically retired he gets paid that amount & we get cap relief.

Remind me, how did Souths get Inglis off their cap for his last year? Wasn’t it they asked nicely and NRL said yes? Can’t remember what the official story was…
In the end it was as much mental as physical in the end …and the Inglis issues were far more prominent …he was having knee issues for years dating back to 2014
Matulino 1st knee issues were 2017
He was boarderline passing medicals with us. His knees where shot before us.
IC just wanted him regardless.

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.
Matto also followed him from the Eels to Roosters - there is a history between the 2.
I feel a meme
Players played harder and earned more in the 80s
Players today complain about what other earn, stay down like award winning actors and can’t handle the cement dished to them everyday

For what it’s worth, Buzz said on NRL 360 tonight, Matto will end up at the Titans
As much as i dislike it ill take Sami and Brimson thanks. Its a fair trade.
Arrow and Brimson for Reynolds & Matto would be heaps better
Of course it would but im being realistic.
If we covered the salary gap/freight we still end out infront roster wise. I’m not thinking a 1 for 1 swap. With the links between clubs and players could be an option. If the clubs actually talk.

Marshall just announced he has signed on for next year. Made a big statement about how he likes the direction Madge is taking the team
Not to call him a liar, but those words don’t mean as much when your only options are re-sign at this club or retire. It would mean a lot more coming from Matterson.
Geez… If it was hard for Benji and he wasn’t happy he wouldn’t of stayed on. After the season he had no doubts he would of got a gig at another club if he wanted to as well.
