Typical talk from players, and Hindmarsh even came out and said they are not far off. Though what i will say is Matto says it is mental thing they are having issues with. Right, i see, sounds familiar. Oh yeah, every year is a mental thing. Also, isn't it the coaches job to get the team up and ready to play week in week out? Mentality is a focal point of preparation, if it is mental i feel a portion of that blame is on BA. Now of course Matto is not coming out to say "We hate the bald fuckwit". He also said the difference between them and Souths is we are turning up and can win those games. We are playing tough. You know what? Matto is right, they are turning up and playing tough footy, Darwin and Canberra are prime examples of tha........oh

  • Matto is the last person I'd take notice of. His mental issues are probably the rise in parking meter prices areound the stadium. Or that the club didn't cover minibar spenditure in Darwin. 

    • Could it be like Moneyball where the players have to pay for their own soda's?

      • Matto would be a tap water kinda guy.  And he'd turn his water meter around the other way to fill his pool up so it counts backwards.  ( FYI my mates old man used to do this and get away with it 😂😂) 

  • Matto is Mental As Anything. He's probably already told BA - if you leave me can I come too

    LOL

  • Damn I reckon Shaun Lane must love playing at the Eels under Brad Arthur. 

     

  • Defining alright.

    He'll be extended by round 14.

    • The board "god the media and fans won't shut up, let's give them what they want and reply"

      BA re-signs til 2028.

      "See, see you can all be quiet now we did something."

  • "They are not far off"

    Seriously?

    • Not far off what exactly?  He is delusional l and that right there is the problem.

"This season is already a write off. Bleed in Talagi with his mistakes. He'll learn. With experience he'll improve. Groom Gutho as a dummy half. He's smart and creative. He's also a good defender and fit as fuck. Lomax isn't coming until next year.…"

This obsession with Talagi is lost on him because he is not a natural fullback, he is a good young player with potential that really is much more suited to the halves. I would player him on Sivo's wing in the interim if he…"
