Because matagi as shown last year and when he was at penrith is capable of that then nothing for a few weeks and can be lazy around the ruck its why hes been in and out of 1st grade his whole career
He can also ball play a little which our other middle forwards (aside from brown) don't offer.
I thought he was good in the trial against newcastle and truthfully I was pleasantly surprised but then he offered nothing in the early rounds. Maybe he had a niggle.
He's so bloody frustrating. He'll now play like shit for the next few weeks. I just can't figure him out.
All last year he was rocks and diamonds. He really seems to struggle with motivation. When he looks angry, he's a wrecking ball.
Something about Matagi i find so refreshing and respectful, is he loves his fans. If anyone follows him on facebook will know, he comments back to most posts and thanks his fans. He is very religious too. His below par form has been paining him, can assure you. He openly apologisis.
Yep he is also on linked in and some of his posts are inspirational to young players and also life in general and he is honest in his assessment of himself and very grateful, you see a completely different side to rugby league players.
"It is similar to the NFL with Quarterbacks, very rarely do teams that don't have a QB get a chance to sign a quality one, as quality ones are kept by their teams. If they are available there is something about them that is a concern, though there…"
"I don't think Lomax is needed and the winger from Penrith isn't either as he only looks that good in that side. I agree that a really good winger (tall and fast) or fullback (X-factor and fast) is what is needed. "
"Thin pickings for quality half backs this day and age. Gus has spent most his $$$ on non critical positions. His spine and Props are average to poor. Burton is not even a 5/8. He's a centre all the way and twice on Sunday. This Dogs side won't be…"

Rotating our forwards seems like a great idea. We have plenty of depth. Keep them all on there toes.
Moeroa may be looking at some time for Wenty.
I thought Terepo was really good too. I'd rather him starting then off the bench.
Give his hands some time to warm up.
